Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Castel Sant'Angelo, Castel Sant'Angelo, Province of Rieti, Lazio
A unique, gorgeous square of Rome, with fountains designed by Bernini, a fantastic church designed by Borromini and lots lots of Art
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: St. Peter's Square, Piazza San Pietro, 00120 Vatican City Italy
The heart of the Vatican city. A fabulous square designed by Bernini, where history, art, religion and culture meet at the step of St. Peter's Basilica.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Via dei Coronari, Rome Italy
One of the most beautiful backstreets of downtown Rome, with plenty of charming corners to take beautiful shots of you.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Piazza Navona, 00186 Rome Italy
Once called the good living Room of Rome, where artists, Romans and tourists alike used to have a stroll and an aperitif, this square, beautified by three gorgeous fountains, the central one being Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers, and two amazing churches, is the perfect set for a number of gorgeous candid and posed shots.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Pantheon, Piazza della Rotonda, 00186 Rome Italy
The Pantheon, facing Piazza della Rotonda, is, with its beautiful architecture, one of the most amazing and best-preserved ancient buildings of Rome. Here the Greek original structure meets the Romanic style offering a wonderful background for wide shots, while the absolutely fascinating interiors are the perfect location for warm, unique portraits.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Basilica dei Santi XII Apostoli, P.za dei Santi Apostoli, 51, 00187 Roma RM, Italy
This is a unique and strangely little-visited church. The original, ancient crypt underground, with its walls painted with old Roman frescos, and its mysterious atmosphere, makes a wonderful set for calm, special portraits, with a sort of mystical feel.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Complesso del Vittoriano, Via di San Pietro in Carcere 1, 00186 Rome Italy
This monument, celebrating Vittorio Emanuele II for its unification of Italy, is known by most non-Italians as "The Wedding Cake" and by Romans as "The Type-writer". Despite the funny names, this is yet another, and very different place to take good shots of you, mainly because from its terrace there is a beautiful view over Rome, and the terraces themselves are quite a set.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Via dei Fori Imperiali, 00186 Rome Italy
This is one of the most scenic walks of Rome since it goes along the ancient Roman Forums, with its ruins on one side the Trajan markets on the opposite side and the Colosseum in the background. A great location to take all sorts of posed and candid shots embedded in history and past glory.

Such an amazing photoshoot in St. Peter, thanks to Giulio! He's very professional and loves his work. His pictures in St. Peter catch our memories at the very best. He's a great experience in travelling photography and he knows exactly how to shoot the perfect instant. Sara

So we decided to bring our 4 months old baby to Vatican to be baptised. My family travelling from Asia, his family from Milano and ourselves from Africa... quite hectic to organise everything and I have never been a fan of having a professional photographer (even for our wedding)... yet that Saturday morning, when we walked acrossed St Peter Square, we stumbled upon Giulio, he was shooting with someone else, we exchanged conversations and I was impressed with his portfolio, especial his work in Africa so when my sister proposed the idea of requesting him to shoot at my daughter’s baptismal next Sunday, I didn’t hesitate and I’m convinced that it was meant to be. He was responsive, Super interesting to converse with and he worked whole heartedly, we weren’t restricted by number of hours or number of photos... he made everything just about us, and nothing else. Thank you for the beautiful moments captured and wish we can work together again somewhere somehow.AnkSan

Was a fun experience with Giulio with the end result of loads of great pictures. Giulio was proactive - responding quickly on initial queries of the tour and also reconfirming meeting time/point ahead of the day of the tour. He started off as scheduled, did not rush at all intact ended up extending the 4hr tour to 5. He suggested change in locations covered based on crowds expected at that time, taking into account my preferences also. Giulio also kept the hours interesting with bits of facts of the areas visited. The end result was loads of amazing pictures to keep those memories, which he delivered within less than a day.Tony S

We travelled from California to Rome for the first time. Giulio D'Ercole was our photographer and guide to my first trip to Rome with family. Giulio was so helpful from helping my wife contact our Airbnb host to calling a big taxi for us to airport. My wife booked Giulio for private photo shoot. Besides being a great photographer and passionate about what he does, he was a great guide and gave us good knowledge and history lesson of Rome. Our first stop was colosseum. Giulio saved us from the long lines by doing what the locals would do. He also took us to great local restaurants that are less known with tourists but only the local knows. We plan to come back to Italy and visit nearby cities next time and I would definitely hire Giulio again. He is professional and friendly and made my first trip to Italy better than I expected. Ive heard Italians are friendly people and Giulio conformed that. Ciao is my favorite word now.mikelG3859CS

This was the perfect way to preserve memories of a once-in-a-lifetime family vacation. Our family traveled to Italy in mid-May. We wanted to get some pictures of our time in Rome where we were all in the shot with iconic, well-composed views of the sights. Giulio did a wonderful job in all aspects. He met us at the apartment where we stayed. He guided us through sites around the the Spanish Steps and Villa Borghese park (our choices). He captured candid shots of us walking, viewing the sights, chatting, and being ourselves. He got very nicely posed shots (for example, one overlooking Piazza del Populo with St. Peter's dome in the background). Lastly, he suggested some portraits of us individually and in couples - extra, extra special! We just got back and the first thing I did was download the files. Fantastic. In addition to the photos, he gave us some historical perspective on the places we were visiting. He was easy to work with and very professional.Ahmed_A

Ah Giulio. I don’t want where to start with this man. He gave my mother and I an experience we will remember for the rest of our lives. First off photography is a small competency he has. He has an extremely interesting background (I’ll keep it as a surprise), and very knowledgeable of Rome’s history. I suspect not just Rome or Italy. He was very engaging and energetic even though his knee and hip were injured, it didn’t affect his output one bit, and that’s a great work ethic for you. He knew just what to say to my mother to bring out her laughs. Clearly Giulio is a warm person with a good heart. After the experience ended, we received the photos a day or two later and my were they great. Across the different historical sites, he took photos with different styles and I loved the different flavors of editing he gave. The photos we took are forever and I would do the session again and again with the people dear to me. Great photographer and experience overall !!
