A Romantic Destination Wedding in Rome | Gizem & Samet's Intimate Elopement
There’s something special about a destination wedding in Rome and Gizem and Samet’s day was the perfect mix of style, intimacy and genuine moments. Traveling from Istanbul, they chose the Eternal City for their celebration and it fit them perfectly.
The day started at the Grand Hotel Plaza, a historic hotel in the center of Rome. With high ceilings, ornate mirrors, and soft natural light, it was an ideal space for getting ready. Gizem looked effortlessly elegant as she prepared for the day.
Small weddings have a unique energy. They give space for real connection and honest emotions. We captured their wedding on both digital and 35mm film, bringing a timeless, natural feel to the images that fit the setting perfectly.
From quiet cobblestone streets to classic Roman backdrops, every location told a part of their story. Simple, authentic, and full of character.
It was a pleasure to photograph Gizem and Samet in Rome.
