Karina has over seven years behind the camera and has lived in six countries. That helps her put couples at ease in a city full of strangers. Through the proposal itself she stays in the background and captures it as it unfolds, without making it feel staged. Once the yes is in, she leads an easy portrait session. Her pricing is the clearest of any Rome proposal photographer.

Proposal specialists who live and work here.
Rome Proposals is run by two sisters, Beth and Eli, who design the whole moment from the first idea to the second she says yes. They keep everything in-house, so nothing gets outsourced and forgotten. One team handles the scene, the flowers, the location scouting, the photography and video, and the day itself. Their eye is cinematic before it is floral.
A three-person Rome studio (Andrea, a second photographer, and a videographer) that covers the proposal, the portrait session after, and the edit from one team. During the surprise he works from a distance and lets the reaction land on its own, then loosens things up for the couple shots afterward, keeping the portraits natural rather than staged.
Gianfranco Catullo came out of photojournalism and has photographed in Rome for more than 20 years. He calls his own work a blend of fine art and reportage. He built his name on the surprise proposal, claiming to be the first in the city to treat it as a real photographic genre rather than a snapshot, and he stays out of sight until the yes lands.
