Sunset over the Roman Ampitheatre
Golden hour engagement session
What a fantastic engagement session in Rome candidly photographed near the Roman Colosseo. In an off the beaten track location with a phenomenal and semi private view of this truly unique monument. The moment photographed from the sideline by a photographer for the perfect surprise effect! Then after catching breath from the great surprise! The photographer presented himself. And we continued on with the photography session to remember this very special moment forever! Starting off with some nice portraits which caught the last rays of light that shone over the Colosseum. Including some pictures of the beautiful engagement ring!
Then we walked over to get a different angle view. Which include a nice view over some Mediterranean pine trees in the background. Which were perfectly lit by the sun setting. Trying out different poses and portraits. And having fun while taking pictures! Concluding this photoshoot with a last set of photos while walking together at dusk!
