“ Jean was amazing to work with! He was so good with our toddler and the shots came out incredible! Would highly recommend him! ”
“ Jean was absolutely the best on all fronts! He communicated long before the proposal to ensure the process went by smoothly and help with the nerves. Not only were the photos stunning (more perfect than you could imagine), Jean was absolutely lovely to talk to during the photoshoot, providing us with some interesting history of the area and recommendations and tips for local restaurants. Overall, we would highly recommend Jean! ”
“ Stunning photographs. He captured our special moment in a way that neither of us could have imagined. Impressed is an understatement. 10 out of 10- highly, highly suggest booking Jean Roberto. ”
“ Working with Mattia and Maria was an incredible experience that we will never forget, thank you for going above and beyond and making this day so special for us!! ”
“ Mattia and Maria were amazing. From planning the time and location to making the moment incredible. The pictures look fantastic. I highly recommend them. ”
“ We cannot recommend Mattia and Maria enough for capturing our engagement. From the first message, they were clear, organized, and quick to respond to every question we had. On the day itself, they made the whole experience seamless, coordinating logistics smoothly so we could just focus on the moment. When the proposal actually happened, they captured every second of it perfectly, without us ever feeling like there was a camera in our faces. The photos themselves are stunning, genuinely some of the best engagement photos we’ve seen, thanks to their eye for composition and timing (and yes, we’re a little biased, but still). On top of all that, they turned the gallery around incredibly fast. If you’re looking for photographers for your proposal or engagement, look no further, we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. ”
“ She was amazing in every way! Very skilled with a camera, kind, and professional. She knew how to get the best angles for every shot and ran up many hills to do so. She also helped a ton with planning the shoot, knew the best spots in the villa, and used the time we had very efficiently. We were completely spent by the end of our session but thrilled by the results. ”
“ Jean was great! He recommended several locations in Bellagio which were perfect! The girls loved the mix of lake views, park and streets of Bellagio. We absolutely loved the pictures. Thank you for capturing beautiful memories of our family. I highly recommend Jean!! ”
“ Gabriele was wonderful! He was incredibly friendly and gave us great advice on the local area. Most importantly, he took absolutely beautiful photos. He knew exactly where to go to capture the best shots, with a wonderful variety of backgrounds and poses that felt natural and flattering. He was also very patient, taking the time to get just the right shot without other people or cars in the background. We’re so happy with how the photos turned out and would highly recommend Gabriele to anyone looking for a photographer in Varenna or Lake Como! ”
“ We were so blessed to have Mattia & Maria be a part of our special day. Coming in all the way from the US, I was very nervous and had lots of questions while trying to plan this proposal, and they provided amazing help & guidance every step of the way! I truly could not have pulled this off without them. They did such a great job the day off with setting up the shoot and providing helpful photography tips & tricks for my now fiancée and I, that I could feel the passion in what they were doing, and it made the whole shoot fun & effortless. I highly recommend everyone to work with them, as they do amazing work and deeply care about the couples they are helping form memories with. We will for sure be requesting them again in the future next time we are back in Como, and hope our paths cross again sooner if we are so lucky! :) ”
“ Working with Mattia and Maria for our proposal shoot in Lake Como was an absolute dream! From start to finish, they made the entire experience effortless, fun, and completely stress-free. They have such an incredible eye for detail and knew all the best spots to capture the beauty of the town while making us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. The photos turned out even better than we could have imagined, capturing a moment we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. If you are looking for photographers in Lake Como, do not hesitate to book Mattia and Maria—they are truly amazing! ”
“ Thank you so much for being with us in the most special moment of our lives. You were sooo nice, so profesional and helped us remember the proposal in the most special way. We received stunning photos in about 24 hours. We are so glad that we have choosen you for our day. Highly recommend Mattia and Maria. Greetings and see you one day! :) ”
“ Matt and Maria were amazing for our surprise proposal. They arrived early and recommended locations based on the conditions. My fiancé did not even notice them until the proposal was actually happening! They had great ideas for poses and knew exactly the best shots for our location. They were able to deliver the photos within 2 days! ”
“ Our photos turned out amazing and Jean picked some of the most beautiful spots without having too much walking in between! We took full advantage of Bellagio and got some great shots of us! Jean even gave us some great lunch recommendations and we enjoyed a fabulous day in Bellagio! ”
“ Thank you for photographing our multi-generational family (with young kids!) in Lake Como. We had a lovely experience from start to finish and the photos came out beautifully. We can't wait to get them printed and hung up on our walls at home. ”
“ Jean was an absolute gem to work with. He’s absolutely phenomenal when it comes to posing and capturing the moments, getting the realest shots and ensuring that the emotion can be felt through the picture. He’s easy to work with, very responsive and helpful in planning and very adaptable to changing situations. The pictures he took are everything I wanted for my proposal to my Fiancé and more. He captured the vision and expectations I had perfectly and went above and beyond anything I could have imagined when it comes to really capturing the special moment. These pictures will be cherished and looked back on forever. ”
“ We had an amazing experience with Mattia and Maria for our honeymoon photoshoot in Bellagio. From the very beginning, they made us feel completely comfortable. We were both a little nervous because we aren't used to being photographed, but their warm and friendly personalities quickly helped us relax and enjoy the experience. One of the highlights was that they took us to several beautiful hidden spots around Bellagio that we would never have found on our own. The locations were absolutely stunning and made our photos feel unique rather than the typical tourist shots. They also gave us lots of guidance on posing throughout the session. Since we had very little experience in front of the camera, we really appreciated their clear directions and creative suggestions. They made everything feel natural, and the results exceeded our expectations. Not only are they incredibly talented photographers, but they are also wonderful people who genuinely care about creating a fun and memorable experience. We couldn't be happier with our photos, and we'll treasure them for the rest of our lives. If you're visiting Lake Como and looking for photographers who are professional, kind, and know all the best locations, we wholeheartedly recommend Mattia and Maria. Thank you both for making our honeymoon even more special! ”
“ Jean Roberto was absolutely fantastic from start to finish for our Varenna photo shoot. He was incredibly communicative before our shoot to understand our vision and during the photo shoot-he was incredibly professional and friendly especially with our 12-year-old daughter. Our photos turned out absolutely beautiful! The colors, the poses, the love ! He was able to connect with us so well! We are IN LOVE with all of these! Grazie Mille Jean! If you are on Lake Como-do not hesitate to book-Jean knows the lake! ” Read Kelly's Travel Story
“ We had such a lovely experience with Gabriele in Bellagio. He was kind, patient, and wonderful with our two young daughters, and he made sure my parents were included and comfortable throughout the session. He took the time to understand the style of photos I was hoping for—a mix of a few classic family portraits and mostly natural, candid moments. He introduced us to an amazing gelato spot and got some great photos of the girls! Thank you for helping us capture such special memories from our Lake Como trip. ”
“ Jean is so much fun to work with! ”
“ Mattia and Maria are simply amazing. They made the process super easy from the start, providing their knowledge with tips about locations and times as well as listening and accommodating to any feedback/request I had. They also helped coordinate and setup the lead up to the proposal as well which was a big help. The pictures themselves turned out amazing. They did a great job capturing the actual proposal moment, and then also choreographing the different types of shots after it. I highly recommend them! ”
