At dawn, with Rome still sleeping, Paula and Davide shared quiet vows in one of the most romantic cities in the world. As a Rome elopement photographer, it’s moments like these—bathed in golden light and steeped in history—that make my heart race. We wandered through empty cobbled streets, capturing their connection in iconic locations without the crowds. Paula wore a flowing Annette Basilius gown that moved like poetry, paired with soft, elegant makeup by Nina Nolepa. This sunrise elopement was proof that sometimes the most meaningful weddings are also the simplest—just two people, a beautiful city, and the right photographer to tell their story.
