For Those Who Crave the Destination Experience - from the Dolomites to the Almafi Coast
Italy IS CALLING
Planning a destination wedding or elopement can feel overwhelming... unless you’ve got someone on your team who’s done this a hundred times.
From finding the right location to planning around weather, lighting, and logistics—I’ve got you. This is more than pretty photos. This is adventure, intuition, and preparation, all rolled into one.
Thoughtful planning
Her thoughtful planning and connections with other supporting vendors provided us with a stress-free elopement.
Rose was absolutely amazing to work with! Her thoughtful planning and connections with other supporting vendors provided us with a stress-free elopement. Planning with her helped us identify exactly what we wanted. We loved her artistic eye - we took all of her suggestions, which turned out better than we imagined. Thank you again, Rose, for everything you did to make our day so special and memorable.

That’s the same energy I bring to every elopement I shoot. If you want someone who knows how to get around Italy, what to see, to cheer for you, and capture every damn magical moment—you’re in the right place.
get to know rose
I have had the privilage of traveling to Italy more than five times. From Rome to the Almafi Coast, to the towering peaks of the Dolomites and the lush vineyards of Tuscany.
Adventure Is My Compass
"Rose will be your photographer, hype girl, friend, dress bustler, hike buddy, and vow witness!
"We booked her 9 months in advance to meet at a place we’ve never been before - Alaska! For planning, she zoomed us multiple times, addressed every concern and question, she helped us make our schedule, gave great ideas and had backup plans. Meeting her in-person and talking to her felt like seeing an old friend. We had the best day ever with just us three.
We ended the day at a brewery and played chess. It was simple and sweet. It was exactly how I wanted to start my newly vowed life. And now I have photos to recall that day forever!!! She delivered awesome photographs! We can’t stop looking at them! It’s everything! She made me feel so beautiful. THANK YOU SO MUCH ROSE!!!"

From the minute we made contact, Rose helped us create the most perfect day!
Rose was probably one of our best decisions ever (besides eloping in Iceland, of course). From the minute we made contact she helped us create the most perfect day! Her response time is incredible, she is the sweetest person, and we really feel like we got to know her. Our social media blew up when we posted our sneak peeks and we have had so many people compliment us on the photos. They are absolutely breathtaking and we are over the moon with them!

Why This Matters for Your Day
I’ve lived in 8 countries and traveled to 60, but Italy keeps pulling me back. Not just for the epic mountains and the food (lets be honest), but because here, everything is ready to charm you. And that’s what I want for you, too. Your elopement isn’t about posing for perfect pictures — it’s about creating space for real moments, spontaneous joy, and a love story that doesn’t need a ballroom to be beautiful.
