Katia and Matteo are an Italian couple who hired Acromatico — a family-run photography and brand studio founded in 2004 — for an engagement session in Pescara, Italy. The day began at the venue that hosted the games, continued downtown, and finished in a park.
Katia and Matteo first hired Acromatico to photograph their wedding in Italy, and this engagement session was made on the same trip. The day started at the Pescara venue where the games were held, then moved on foot through downtown before finishing at a beautiful park. The studio noted that the couple were total naturals and that, between them and the scenery, it was impossible to get a single bad shot.
Acromatico had wanted to share this set for a long time. Closing out the post, the studio sent the couple their best wishes in Italian — "Katia e Matteo, tanti auguri!" — genuinely happy for them.
“Once we got there we realized it was going to be impossible to get a single bad shot of these two.”
Good to know
Pescara is the largest city in Italy's Abruzzo region, sitting on the Adriatic coast where the Pescara River meets the sea, roughly two hours east of Rome. It's known for its long sandy seafront, a walkable downtown, and a mix of modern boulevards and green public spaces — the kind of setting that lets an engagement session move naturally from a landmark venue, through city streets, and into a park, all in a single day on foot.
For couples planning a session or wedding in Abruzzo, Pescara works well as a home base: it's compact enough to cover several distinct backdrops within walking distance, and its coastal light is a draw for outdoor portraits. Acromatico, based across South Florida and New York City, photographs destination sessions like this one and brings the same dark fine-art "Brand Studio" approach abroad.
