Your elopement is all about you and your partner. Be your true self. Show your fun, quirky personality. Do the things that make you happy. Laugh loudly. Kiss slowly. Hug tightly.
Take a deep breath and let it sink in — YOU’RE ELOPING IN ROME!
Skipping the chaos of a 200-person wedding, leaving behind the stress and expectations, and choosing an intimate day centered entirely around the two of you? I love that. You’re choosing an experience that is intentional, deeply romantic, and completely unforgettable — and I’m here for it every step of the way.
And honestly... is there any place on earth more iconic or magical to say “I do” than the Eternal City?
Imagine exchanging your vows in the quiet morning light outside the Pantheon, wandering hand-in-hand through the cobblestone alleys of Trastevere, pausing for gelato on a warm afternoon, and sharing your first dance on a terrace overlooking the Roman skyline at golden hour.
I’m here to guide you through the city and make sure your love story is captured in the most breathtaking, soulful images you’ve ever seen. Let’s make this a day — and a Roman adventure — you will relive forever.
If you’re starting to feel overwhelmed by permit questions, crowd timings, or finding those secret spots away from tourists... take a deep breath. That’s exactly why I’m here.
I’m not just your photographer.
You’re not just hiring someone to press a button — you’re gaining a local guide, a storyteller, and a trusted partner in Rome who ensures you feel calm, confident, and present every step of the way.
From knowing the exact minute sunrise hits the Trevi Fountain to designing a relaxed, effortless timeline, we’ll craft a day in Rome that feels entirely you — filled with joy, intimacy, and moments you’ll cherish forever.
about me
Hi, I’m Rashad
I believe to truly capture love, you have to appreciate all the quiet, authentic ways it shows up between two people. Photography, for me, isn't about rigid posing, it's about preserving genuine feeling. Based in Rome, I fall in love with this city’s timeless light and romantic corners every single day.
My goal isn't just to take beautiful photos of your elopement, but to make you feel completely at ease, present, and free to be yourselves as we explore Rome together. Your elopement, your love, your story

“This was our second time working with Rashad and once again, we are completely blown away. His talent somehow keeps getting better and better, every photo feels timeless, full of emotion, and beautifully composed.
He came all the way to meet us in Amalfi, Italy for our elopement, and his professionalism was incredible from start to finish. He was so communicative about his travel plans and schedule, making everything effortless to coordinate.
Beyond his artistry, he’s just such a wonderful person to be around. All of our guests commented on how kind and easygoing he was, and we’re so grateful that he took the time to capture everyone’s presence that day — not just us as a couple, but the full spirit of the celebration.
We couldn’t recommend Rashad more highly. He’s not just a photographer; he’s a storyteller, and we feel so lucky to have had him document both of these unforgettable chapters in our lives.“

Together, we’ll curate locations in Rome that match your personal style.
Custom Rome Timeline & Lighting Planning
Rome is legendary, but timing is everything. I’ll craft a relaxed, natural timeline designed around the dreamiest golden-hour light and the quietest times at iconic spots. From calculating travel between locations to scheduling espresso breaks, I handle the planning so you can just be present.
Unlimited Communication
You’ll have full, unlimited access to me via email, phone, or WhatsApp throughout your planning. Have questions about Roman logistics, local florists, or permit requirements? No question is too small — I’m here to ensure you feel 100% prepared and confident before you even land in Italy.
Natural Prompting & Stress-Free Guidance
On your elopement day, there will be zero stiff or awkward posing. I guide you with natural, fun prompts that bring out genuine connection, laughter, and romance. We’ll also leave plenty of room for quiet, spontaneous moments tucked away in Rome’s historic cobblestone streets.
And here’s the icing on the cake…
Within 4 to 7 days after your elopement, you’ll receive a handpicked selection of edited sneak peek photos — capturing all the magic and emotion while it’s still fresh in your heart.
