I'm attracted to document love, friendship, beauty of spontaneous moments, family ties, true feelings during a wedding day. My photography blends candid heartfelt raw images with a touch of fashion and retrò glam flavor. Every wedding is a surprise! My everlasting passion for photography, art, fashion, movies, music, and dancing are my instrument to deliver every time "a unique wedding storytelling".

My approach is not intrusive also if my aim is to have a true connection with my clients. What moves me and is really inspirational for me is getting to know people and being able to take pictures of their unique personalities.

I studied photography for 3 years in Rome, at the European institute of Design (IED). In 1999 I specialized in documentary photography, by attending the "One year Documentary Program", at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York City.
I lived in NYC for 7 years and so I feel USA a little bit as my homeland - I currently live with my family in Italy between Florence and Rome!

I love to always get my photography on the run and I attend regularly different international photo conferences in Europe such as WayUpNorth, Fearless photographers workshops, ANFM meetings.

No travel and accommodation fee in Tuscany and Rome.

MARIA PAOLA + ALESSIO

Rosapaola was so wonderful to work with. I really cannot say enough kind things about her. She photographed our wedding at Fattoria la Loggia in Tuscany and the photos came out beautiful. She was so helpful during the preparation process and had great ideas for photo backgrounds and poses all around the grounds of the property. I loved working with her and I would recommend her to anyone getting married in Italy. We love her!

Rosapaola è una professionista amante del proprio lavoro. Proprio per questo i suoi scatti hanno i magici doni della semplicità e della spontaneità. Riesce a imprigionare le emozioni e a far sì che possano essere rivissute nelle fotografie anche a distanza di tempo. Ho avuto il piacere di averla come fotografa al mio matrimonio ed é stata instancabile. Ha ripreso ognuno in modo più naturale possibile. Al termine del lavoro, attraverso in gioco di luci come i migliori artisti, ha saputo regalare ad ogni scatto il colore che meritava. È una professionista davvero in gamba!

Rosapaola is one of the reasons Wayne and I enjoyed our trip to Florence so much! She took us to the best spots at the best times for our pre-wedding photos, she was patient and sweet the whole time of photo shooting. We absolutely loved all the photos she took, not only the lighting, the colour, the creativity, but most importantly the photos captured natural moments of us and recorded the very memorable moments in that beautiful city! 100% recommend Rosa!

BELLA + WAYNE

Meeting Rosapaola over FaceTime - we KNEW instantly that she was the photographer for us! Discussing her interests and passion for photography, fashion, art - so exciting! Not to mention her passion for love!!

On our wedding day Rosa and her assistants did not stop taking photographs - challenging us to do more poses and different lighting and backgrounds. Truly inspiring!

Then in October our photographs came and my husband and I - we re-lived our perfect wedding day all over again - they were truly beautiful and I honestly can't stop looking at them. Rosapaola Lucibelli takes the Read More most beautiful photographs I have ever seen - she captures personality, emotions, and love within every single image. Thank you ever so much for capturing our beautiful day - we are so grateful to have these for the rest of our lives.

Rosapaola and her team were great on our wedding day. She made everyone feel comfortable and really captured the day. Her work was fantastic and we can't recommend her enough! Her communication even after the event was really appreciated and she was happy to answer any questions, big or small. She has really made our wedding a day to remember forever!

VALENTINA + ROMAIN

Rosapoala was better than we ever could have imagined! Before our wedding we had a Skype call, where she really was focused on getting to know us - our personalities, how we met, family dynamics. It was almost like a mini therapy session so that she could really capture our "essence" on the big day. We had booked Rosapoala for our wedding day, but last minute (day days before), realized we would also want pictures of our rehearsal party. She came up from Rome early to capture some of the most beautiful pictures of the weekend - we can't imagine not having the photos from that night in Read More hindsight, and are so grateful that she was flexible with dates. We are not the most organised of couples, so we really appreciated that she made sure to get all the key pictures that we never would have thought of taking. She got a great mix of pictures of us, our family, and friends - we've spend hours just reliving that weekend through her photos, and can't wait to do so again in years to come! Thank you, Rosapaola!!!

ANDREA + SEAN

Rosapaola is such a sensible photographer. She could capture the feelings we experienced at our wedding through her lenses. Our pictures can transmit the energy of that day, unique in our lives. We deeply recommend her services for the ones who are going to live a special moment, so it are going to be registered in the most beautiful way.

FERNANDA + DIEGO

We loved working with Rosapaola! Her team was fantastic from start to finish. She made every effort to get to know us before the wedding to make sure everything was personal and in our style. On the day of the wedding, she and her team captured every special moment flawlessly and most importantly they were true and candid! I would recommend her to anyone and can’t thank her enough for the special role she and her team played at our wedding.

LAUREN + MATHEUS

Rosapaola was so wonderful to work with! She immediately made both of us feel comfortable and was so fun to have around during our wedding weekend! We planned a destination wedding in Florence (we live in the US) and she was so easy to communicate with via email and Skype to plan everything we wanted photography-wise for the weekend. She accommodated all of my requests including a 6am photo shoot all throughout the city of Florence the day before our wedding! She was so flexible, easy going, fun, and funny - we just loved working with and being around her. Not to mention, the photos!!! We were Read More thrilled when we received our album from the weekend. The photos are beautiful and she captured every moment perfectly! Everyone keeps telling us that they can feel the joy in the photos when they look at them. We hope to be back in Italy and be able to shoot with Rosapaola again! Rosapaola is wonderful and we highly recommend her!
