Communication with groom
When I work with a somewhat nervous groom-to-be on one of the biggest surprises he will ever orchestrate i am sure to communicate very very well. I listen to his entire plan of proposal. Then we walk through each step. I answer any questions, choose the place we will be shooting from. And lastly i make sure my groom-to-be is feeling amazing about what is going to happen in the next 24 fabulous hours.
I am story teller
I want to tell an amazing story for my couple. And I try to document every second I can of the surprise proposal not just the knee drop. Which means, shooting my couple as soon as they are in sight. It is our opportunity to document both the before and after of the surprise without ever being seen.
Right after groom pops the question and she says yes i focus in on brides face. This is the after which is so true and soul moving. The emotion at this time is raw and priceless. I give my couple a few mins to just be with each other and breathe it all in. Right after that i come out of hiding and say hello to newly engaged beautiful couple. I explain to new bride-to-be that her man had this all planned out well in advance (scoring him major brownie points!) and hired me to document it all.
We then move into a mini-engagement session
I explain that a mini engagement session with gorgeous posed photos comes next. Again thanks to her amazing man! I give bride-to-be a few mins to do any makeup touch-ups (from tears) and a few mins to also adjust to the huge surprise that just took place. We then move into a beautiful engagement session filled with so much love!
Just let me know your dream proposal plan and I’ll help you: Champagne, flowers, music.. I will help you to plan all of the details of your proposal, for making sure that your proposal goes perfectly and she will say “YES” in a perfect moment and in a perfect place in the city of love.
You’ll receive beautiful photos to share with your family or friends!

Happy Clients
I would definitely recommend Katerina as a photographer. Our special proposal moment was captured in truly great detail and Katerina was so professional throughout. From the moment of contact Katerina more then helped & advised on times, details along with advice on the best places to stand whilst the surprise proposal was unfolding making our story unforgettable. As well as capturing some wonderful portraits of us both, she was able to blend us in to the day along with the magnificent surroundings of the Spanish Steps capturing exceptional shots of us without even realising katerina was next to us Since receiving our pictures we can’t stop looking over them again and again, and our family have all had the highest praise for every picture. Thank you Katerina for your hard work creating memories of our big moment & for pictures we will look back on with a huge smile for the rest of our lives! Thank you for being apart of our story too
Martin & Deana
Beyond my expectations. I had the pleasure of taking the photos with Katerina, she was very attentive and professional. Always guiding us and making sure that we could get the best photoshoot in Rome. Very careful to choose an incredibly spot with almost no one, the result was amazing! I did a surprise proposal photo session at the Trevi Fountain which I highly recommend but also any other type of photo session in Rome with Katerina. It’s the right decision! Don’t lose time trying to find a best option, she is!

I can’t thank Katerina enough for capturing my surprise wedding proposal! She was very friendly and clearly wanted the experience to be as special as possible for us.
Katerina suggested the most perfect location for us with a stunning, uninterrupted view of the Colosseum, and sent me pictures from different places beforehand so I could make an informed decision on where to pop the question. Her communications leading up to the day were great, giving me clear instructions and even tips for the day.
After the main photos, Katerina walked us to a number of other amazing locations with gorgeous views and a sunset for some additional photos and a few fun videos, and spent around 1.5 hours with us without being intrusive at all – she even brought a bottle of Prosecco for us to celebrate the occasion!
Thank you again, Katerina! You made our day even more magical!

Frequently Asked Questions about Surprise Proposal photoshoot in Rome
WILL HAVING A PHOTOGRAPHER THERE RUIN THE SURPRISE?
Absolutely not! I have a vast amount of experience that allows me to be as inconspicuous as possible so that I don’t ruin the very special surprise you have put so much work into.
CAN WE HAVE SOME ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS TAKEN AFTER THE PROPOSAL?
Yes! My presence will be revealed shortly after your proposal. I will introduce myself to your partner, after which we will spend some time taking photographs at the location of your proposal. The first few hours after the proposal are the most emotionally charged, so it’s always a great idea to have this very special time captured.
HOW DO I BOOK?
Simply fill in the contact form with your proposal details and I will be in touch with you shortly.
CAN I GET THE PHOTOS IN PRINTABLE SIZES?
Of course! Your photos will be delivered to you in full resolution to enable you to do with them as you please – from putting them on Instagram to having them printed.
WHAT IF I NEED SOME ADVICE?
If you need any help preparing for the big day, I am always happy to advise and offer my expertise on the best lighting conditions and locations in Rome for the best photographs.
Should you need assistance for a more elaborate proposal, I can refer you to some of the best proposal planners in the country who will be able to oversee this event for you.
HOW IS A PROPOSAL PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION DIFFERENT FROM ENGAGEMENT?
It’s mostly the same. The significant difference is that your photographer won’t meet you before they start shooting. Your proposal location needs to be very precise, and I find that I need to do more planning and research regarding the light/backdrop etc.
After your proposal, and she/he has said, “Yes!” I introduce myself, and we’ll go on to have a full engagement shoot.
