Rome and Wedding Photography conjures up lots of emotions in photographers. I had many offers of second shooting and took a pal of mine Mike Hetherington along to enjoy the country of my mother and my inner soul.

The Wedding season is in full swing now with another amazing Wedding in Italy, in the village of Frascati  looking across Rome. The venue Villa Grazioli is 500 years old and renovations continue to restore this beauty back to timeless perfection.

The venue was wonderful, the food a delight, the wine from the region and the Banqueting staff some of the best in Italy. Even though I was not local, I was treated as a regular supplier and overwhelmed by their consideration and professionalism. The good news is 6/7 brides get married there from the UK each year so I hope to return soon. It helped speaking Italian.

The Wedding guests were just a delight to be around and after a Lifestyle shoot in Rome, the Wedding Day was in full swing with some of Rome’s best weather this year. Regardless of location or venue the same always applies, find the art and the love of the place and combine it with an imagination of timeless moments, captured forever.

So here are the collection of images where I continue my theme of ‘A Wedding in 12 shots ‘ and I cannot wait for the couple to return from Honeymoon to run through the images and in particular my favourite moments.

A place to show the rings

A Bride can never have enough helpers to get ready, that is the way it is !

A first Glance, she sees him and he smiles

Joining the knot, she cried I told her a wet knot is a tighter knot

The Sun Setting on the Wedding Day

Almost Tuscany beauty, but with Roman command

The Venue and it's scale captured as the sun sets

A Group Shot is always a must and so much fun

A moment when Dad recounts the first meeting, she looks for comfort

The first Dance is always a time of great affection and public expression

The Sun sets on the Day, the Venue and the Wedding, the warmth of Rome

The final private moments in the beautiful Fresco rooms

The Wedding finished late and the guests danced until they dropped. To A & J I thank you for choosing Antonio Sanzari Photography, it was a pleasure being with you both and be able to capture you lovely day. Hope you had a great honeymoon on that coast line.
