Engagement, proposal & elopement photography in Rome

If you’re reading this part of my website, there’s a good chance you’re thinking about booking a photo session in Rome.

If you don’t know me yet and just found my page, let me quickly introduce myself.

My name is Leyre, and I’ve been working as a professional photographer for the past ten years. I specialize in wedding photography, elopements, couples, surprise proposals, and family sessions. You can read more about me and my story in this section.

I’m originally from Madrid (so I speak Spanish too!), but I spent several years living in the U.S., and nowadays, my husband and I split our time between different countries in Europe thanks to the flexibility of our jobs. Rome is one of my favorite cities, which is why I’m available there for a few months each year.

During my time in Rome, I love capturing couples, surprise proposals, family moments, post-wedding shoots, and elopements.

You can check out the packages and all the details here.

Thanks so much for your time. Let’s create something magical together in one of the most beautiful cities in the world!

Just send me an email or fill in the contact form. I’ll reply within 24 hours. Let me know your availability, favorite package, ideas and locations. I can suggest the best locations and give you some tips for the session. I’ll recommend a specific time to do the session  depending on the season, crowds, ligth, weather…).

 

To book the date and times you will need to send a deposit of 40% via PayPal, Wise, Zelle (US), Revolut or a bank transfer in Europe or the UK to book the date. The remaining amount could be paid at the end of the photoshoot in cash/those payment methods.

Absolutely! You can decide the locations to do the session, just keep in mind the time of the chosen package. For example, if you book a 30 min-package, you should select only one location because we won’t have much time together. For example, the Roman forum area or Trastevere.

If you choose 1 hour, it ‘s possible to combine different viewpoints in the same location like the forum + Piazza Navona or the Pantheon.

If you want + 90 min we can go to more places! We could walk between locations or just take an Uber/Metro.

Also, the more time we have, the more photos I will take and therefore, the more photos you will receive!

We can create a route with your favorite places when you book the date. I will help you with everything!

It’s completely normal to feel intimidated. Many couples have told me before a photoshoot that it will be impossible for them to be natural in front of the camera. However, my work is to create a suitable atmosphere for spontaneity to emerge.

After the first stressful minutes, couples leave behind the initial stiffness and focus on each other, sometimes almost forgetting I’m still there taking pictures. I would really like to encourage camera-shy couples to try a photo-shoot – it’s, by far, not that bad!

In this case we can go two ways:

We can reschedule the session or we can proceed with the photoshoot, shooting at some great locations that are also covered.

At the same time, some light rain or showers here and there can sometimes be the good excuse for an empty Madrid.
Also, it’s easy to find some covered alleys, galleries, passages, etc. in Madrid. And what is more romantic than a couple under an umbrella !

Of course ! Watch. Share. Print. Everything you’d like, you own your photos !
The only exception would be for ads and commercials, this would require our agreement with a copyright release.

Unfortunately, I do not provide unedited photos, as they are part of the process of creating the final product and are not available for delivery to clients. However, I typically edit many more photos than those included in the packages, and it’s possible to get extra photos or the complete gallery if you wish to have more photos than those included in the selected package.
