Raleigh Wedding Photographer | Colosseum Couple's Session | Rome, Italy | Yuli Cagna & José-Manuel Alcalde

Chileans in Rome!

I was so excited when José contacted me on Instagram to ask about photographing around the Colosseum with his girlfriend, Yuli. He's from Chile and she's from Argentina. They're Instagram influencers traveling Europe and taking photos in all the iconic locations. Traveling together is such an incredible thing. You get to experience unique cultures, old history, and amazing food while also navigating a different language, getting around a new city, and balancing relaxation and adventure. My dad is from Chile so I was able to speak Spanglish and talk about Santiago and Patagonia where my family is. José lived in NYC where he was first discovered as a model so we related to being struggling artists and about favorite US cities. He also just won a big model competition, Mister Chile, and worked with Mens Fashion Week in Miami so we were able to talk about Miami Beach too! Such a cool and small world to have these connections!  They were a joy to work with. They were positive, curious, and go with the flow, my kind of couple! I loved showing them the Colosseum and capturing their love in The Eternal City.

Thank you for a beautiful Italian morning photographing around Rome!
