love notes

  • "I can not recommend Isabella highly enough, if you’re reading this wondering whether or not to book a session the answer is Book! My partner and I had never done anything like this and were very nervous initially, however Isabella’s warm professional manner made every step of the journey magical and exciting! Her genuine willingness to connect with the both of us meant that when the day came we had an absolute blast. She encouraged us to share our own ideas and was very flexible in terms of incorporating our own creative perspectives in the shoot. She was patient, kind and knew exactly how to facilitate a shoot that my partner and I will definitely cherish for years to come. We have just received our photos and to say that we are over the moon would be a complete understatement. Her creative eye and attention to detail really brought our personal story to life. We feel incredibly lucky and indebted to have worked with such an exceptional individual and look forward to using Bloom Photos for future events. Thanks again Isabella!"

  • “I was so lucky to get a chance to do a mini photoshoot with Isabella during our summer in Southern Italy. She has a luminous yet grounding energy that makes you feel at ease in front of her camera, even if you haven’t done this sort of thing before, or if you’ve always felt shy to do it. To be a part of the spontaneity and playfulness of her process, of this moment of mutual creation was such a joy and a gift.”

  • "I had a photo session for my 3 young boys aged 6, 3 & 9months and Isabella was so lovely she introduced herself to my boys and they instantly fell in love with her. She is so sweet, kind and always has a smile on her face. She made the boys and myself feel so comfortable there was no pressure to sit and pose awkwardly or have fake smiles on their faces, she played games with them and let them run around and made them laugh and all the photos were very natural and just amazing. I knew I wanted her to photograph my boys from the minute I spoke with her on Instagram she replied to my messages and questions instantly never left me on read or wondering what was going on and she was just as excited as I was. The session didn’t even go for an hour and she got the most amazing photos and my boys just wanted more and more photos they didn’t want it to end. It was just overall an amazing experience and I am so grateful for her capturing the most beautiful moments of my boys."

  • "For the first time ever I hired and hosted a professional retreat photographer at my Love Revolution retreat this summer in Italy. I intentionally chose Isabella because of the ethereal quality of her work and because she somehow always seems to capture the beauty of the raw human experience in her photographs. Isabella captured both epic and sacred moments of the retreat experience including offering stunning ‘before and after’ portraits to the participants AND we did a brand shoot on location in Italy. I am in love with all the photographs and am already using them in my business because they truly capture the essence of my brand and what I am offering. Most importantly though is how easy and fun it is to work with Isabella. It’s a really co-creative process and she knows how to direct you without you feeling directed which having worked with other photographers is a real gift. The results feel like me instead of the photographers version of me if that makes sense. In a retreat setting you also want a photographer that manages to capture great shots and gorgeous candid moments without knowing they are even there and this Isabella has down to an art form. She is the perfect balance of artist and director, drawing out your essence to capture it in her work."
