Eric_K, Sep 2024
Great photographer that listened to our vision and tried to bring it to life. Very patient with our two year old.

Patient and well-led photoshoot

Joanna_F, Jun 2024
Valentina was very accommodating and patient, especially since we arrived a little later than our scheduled time, she still made time to fit us in and not feel rushed. She provided very good and specific directions for each pose varying it up amongst the family members so we'd have a variety of options to select from. We had our luggage with us as we were on our way to the train station and she made sure to let us know her colleague was keeping a watch on them while we did some of the photos. She was very nice, patient, professional, and did an excellent job on providing us many great photos! Thank you!

Great experience

So worth it, amazing!

Mariana captured our trip of a lifetime and gave us memories that I will treasure forever. She was creative, kind, and took a lot of time with us. She even spent extra time with us to ensure the lighting was just right. She’s amazing and we could not be happier!

Great experience, highly recommend

Judy_R, May 2023
Wonderful experience ! Our photographer, Sara, was great. She was friendly and absolutely awesome with my 5 year old. She knew exactly where to go to get the best shots. The pictures are stunning.

Definitely not worth the time and money spent. Instead of spending money for this, go and buy food for homeless people around Termini.

Photo shoot in eternal city!!

Birthday at the Colosseum

Danielle_E, Dec 2022
We had a red hair young lady . She was so professional and her personality was very natural. Her pictures of us and the Colosseum were the best pictures of our trip and we used multiple Photographers though Viator and Italy. She arrived on time , communication on the app was great. And she knew how to Position us correctly for these fabulous photos . Also her photo shoot was exactly on the timeline we booked. Never too long or too quick. We were a mother and daughter duo . Took my mom to the Colosseum for her birthday
