Feedback
“Honestly, it's the best workshop I've ever attended. I'm so thrilled
with the content and everything I learned. The styling and concept were everything I could have wished for fresh, beautifully executed, and perfectly in tune with the creative new era of weddings we're experiencing.Roman struck the perfect balance between leading
and being approachable. It was so valuable to watch”
“I had been waiting for this workshop for more than six months since registration, and it was truly eye-opening. Roman is such a kind, humorous, and classy human being, the kind of artist who inspires you to see things differently.The execution was flawless, everything felt professional yet warm and personal”
“We really wanted to focus more on Lake Como weddings, and this workshop was the perfect opportunity to do so.Of course, the biggest highlight remains seeing Roman at work. He is - and always will be
a huge inspiration for us, and honestly, he was the main reason we decided to book this workshop in the first place”

OUR Partners
F.A.Q.
How is the shoot organized?
We work in groups, giving each participant their own time to stage the models and execute both the classic and creative shots from each scene: brides & groom’s morning, flatlays, ceremony, couple shots, guest shots, unique venue shots, reception, champagne tower and cake – going beyond traditional portraits. We create moments—croquet, badminton, pool parties, fireworks—and authentic emotions (with parents, kids, pets), making each scene feel like a real wedding.
Сan I do my own creative shots that are not in the storybook?
Absolutely! For each shoot, our Editorial Production team creates a storybook with detailed inspiration, unique venue perks and timing. We support your creative vision and set apart extra time for creative shots unique to your style.
Can I submit my Editorial gallery to another blog?
Yes! Our Editorials have been featured in prominent magazines such as: Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, The Lane, Carats & Cake, Magnolia Rouge, ELLE, Vanity Fair, Tatler, Style Me Pretty & more.
Do you guys help with the logistics as well?
Of course! For each event, our team prepares a travel guide with accommodation options, logistics details, as well as local restaurants and experiences to check out.
Is it a full wedding day shoot or just a part of it?
It’s a full wedding day photoshoot.
We capture every scene, from the couple’s morning to the ceremony, guests and guest experiences, going beyond traditional portraits. We create moments—croquet, badminton, pool parties, fireworks—and authentic emotions (with parents, kids, pets), making each scene feel like a real wedding.
Do you help with staging the shots?
Yes, our Production Team can advise you on the best locations and posing ideas, supporting you throughout the shoot.
What happens after I sign up?
We will secure your spot at the shoot. A couple of weeks before the shoot, our team will add you to our WhatsApp chat and invite you to an intro call, where we’ll share more details about the timing & logistics.
