We are starting to take Guest Photos for Wanderlust Wednesday. If you are interested, please contact us! I travel to Europe every year, taking in two to three countries at a time. I mixed things up a bit this year by choosing just one country; Italy. I was told that northern Italy is so different… Continue reading Wanderlust Wednesday – Views from Positano, Italy
So what happens when you put two wedding photographers part of two couples (that are bloggers!) on the Bridge of Gold at 2am after a long night of wining and dining? A photoshoot of course! Bethany of Beers & Beans and I rocked it that night. The Bridge of Gold, or Ponte Vecchio, in Florence,… Continue reading Love in Florence on the Bridge of Gold
Meet Bernie. He is probably the best tour guide we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He is a professor of Art History - a subject that I had a passion for in college - and if I’d had him as a teacher then, I probably would have not despised it by the end.… Continue reading Walking with the Masters: Florence with Walks of Italy
Standin' on your mama's porch You told me that you'd wait forever Oh and when you held my hand I knew that it was now or never Those were the best days of my life Back in the summer of '69 The drunken frat boys wailed across the stage at a karaoke bar to a… Continue reading Belated 30 in Florence, Italy
We had no clue how tired we were. Like, mind-numbingly, horrifyingly, exhausted. I was on the verge of having a nervous breakdown and depression was looming overhead. Remind me why we do this again? Our bank account was almost non-existent. We had been doing back to back press trips for 3 weeks. We hadn’t had… Continue reading On the Edge of Burnout in Florence, Italy
You have no clue how happy I was to get to Florence, Italy. I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy ourselves at the Colosseum or the Vatican, I was just glad not to be in Rome anymore. The chaos of Italy is concentrated there. I can understand why people love it but I needed something a… Continue reading Finding Foodie Florence with Walks of Italy
They were going about their normal lives - eating, drinking, working... living. And it was all over in an instant. This is what draws me to the story of Pompeii. It is an entire civilization that was forgotten until somewhat recent history. If there is one thing that sticks with me about the Pompeii Walks… Continue reading Uncovering the Unwritten Past of Pompeii with Walks of Italy
I am by no means a skinny girl. Actually, I prefer the term “pleasantly plump”. After spending thousands of dollars on personal trainers over the past 10 years, I realized life is just too short to be eating nothing but steamed spinach and grilled fish. I NEED FLAVOR IN MY LIFE. Little did I know… Continue reading Getting my NOM on in Rome with Walks of Italy
Because I couldn't help myself during our tours with Walks of Italy, I had to take a moment to capture the Colosseum in HDR. This place is so epic that it needed a bit more with the processing of the photo. Sure it is a a bit surreal but when you walk through the halls… Continue reading Photo Friday: HDR Colosseum in Rome, Italy
The Vatican is known for housing some of the most infamous works of art and being the basis for countless conspiracy theories but what really got us giddy in the pants were the stories that accompanied our VIP Vatican tour with Walks of Italy. History, secrecy, reverence, scandal, beauty- there isn't much that the world's smallest independent state… Continue reading Behind Closed Doors: The Vatican Tour with Walks of Italy
It is one of those iconic travel locations that you can’t stop thinking about - just like Machu Picchu. It is when you know you have reached “that” point in your life when you can finally cross off another big one off your list. I never thought I would experience the Colosseum with a tour… Continue reading Pretending to be a Gladiator in the Colosseum with Walks of Italy
