The Experience

We were already laughing as we stepped out onto the cobblestones near the Spanish Steps—my shoes clicking, camera bags bumping my side. Shaggy, our photographer, waved us over with this easy grin and started chatting like we’d known him for ages. He had this way of making you forget there were tourists everywhere, just pointing out little things—the way the morning sun hit a fountain or how you could smell espresso drifting from a café down the block. I kept thinking, “I’m actually here, doing a photoshoot in Rome,” which felt wild.

He didn’t rush us at all. We wandered through narrow alleys and he’d pause to show us how to lean against an old wall or just walk and talk while he snapped away. At one point I tried to say ‘Trinità dei Monti’ in Italian (badly) and Shaggy laughed so hard he nearly dropped his lens cap—he said locals would forgive me if I bought them coffee. The whole thing felt more like hanging out than posing; sometimes I forgot there was even a camera on me. The keyword “private photoshoot in Rome” sounds formal but honestly it was anything but stiff.

I still remember how the marble steps felt cool under my hand while we waited for a group of nuns to pass (they smiled at us—one even fixed my hair). There was this moment near Trevi Fountain where everything got quiet for half a second and Shaggy caught it—I haven’t seen the photo yet but I know I’ll feel that hush when it pops up in my inbox. He promised we’d get our edited photos within 48 hours; honestly, I’m weirdly excited about that part.
