The route

Into the gardens, out to the light.

We meet in front of Trinità dei Monti and walk up into Villa Borghese — avenues of plane trees, the little temple on the lake, flowers in spring.

Then the terrace: the whole city laid out to the west, St Peter’s dome on the horizon, the sun going down behind it. The view everyone wants for a proposal.

Timing

Your time is set by the sun, not by a timetable.

This route is photographed at sunset only. The terrace faces west — the sun sets behind the domes, in front of you. Sunset moves by more than two hours across the year, so your end time follows the real sun on your date.

Sunset

Ends at the last quarter-hour before the sun goes down. A 90-minute session in mid-September: 17:45 – 19:15.

In their words.

“Roberta is absolutely fantastic – a true professional, she not only knew Rome’s most breathtaking spots for a fantastic photo, she was so much fun and made the whole experience easy and free of stress. I could not recommend her more!”
“We had an incredible experience with Roberta as our photographer. It was rainy during our shoot and she didn’t let that stop the quality of the photos or the shoot. She was a champ! Our engagement photos turned out amazing and we couldn’t be happier. Communication from the start to finish was flawless and we would recommend her to everyone!”
“Roberta is a magician! My husband and I visited Italy for vacation and wanted to do a small photoshoot just because and the photos turned out BEYOND AMAZING! We have done quite a few photoshoots over the years but these photos are def some of my favorite ever! In addition to the great work, Roberta is very kind and was super easy to deal with (flexibility in booking dates, very responsive, quick turnaround time, etc.).”

Questions people ask

Why only sunset at Trinità dei Monti?

Because the terrace faces west. At sunset the sun goes down behind the domes, straight in front of you — at sunrise the same view is in shadow.

Where do we meet?

In front of the church of Trinità dei Monti. I send the exact spot with your confirmed time.

Does this route include the Spanish Steps?

No. The Spanish Steps can only be photographed early in the morning, before the crowds — at sunset they are full. This route stays above them: Trinità dei Monti, the gardens and the terrace.

Is this a good place for a proposal?

One of the best in Rome — a terrace over the whole city at golden hour. We plan the moment together beforehand, then the portraits continue in the gardens.

Is it good for families?

Yes. The gardens of Villa Borghese give children space to run, and the terrace gives you the family photo with Rome behind it.

When do we receive the photos?

Your edited, high-resolution gallery arrives online within 72 hours.
