“When Holly and I met on the Australian Bachelor red carpet, our first conversation was about our love of travel and our desire to return to Italy, so we didn’t bother proposing in Italy,” he told FEMAIL.
“When Holly and I met on the Australian Bachelor red carpet, our first conversation was about our love of travel and our desire to return to Italy, so Italy was a no-brainer,” he told FEMAIL.
‘Hols and I have been lucky enough to travel a lot over the last year filming the travel series @100_Honeymoons. However, Italy was a place we had yet to be together.
Holly hadn’t been back to Europe since she was a little girl, so I wanted this trip to be special for both of us. Weekends are a great time to propose because you’re stress-free and can get over the post-travel high.’
Holly admits she has struggled to get in touch with her photographer because he knows her phone, email and Instagram passwords, but has managed to keep it a secret until now.

“Sorrento will forever be a special place for us. We hope that one day we can take our children there and tell them, ‘Look, my nervous parents begged me to be immortal.'”
Jimmy was initially dismissive of the idea of becoming a photographer, but in the end, he was happy to capture the moving images.

“I love the way the photos are mixed with candids. It was such an amazingly emotional day. Is it too late to edit me with no tears in my eyes?’

It may seem easier to ask someone around you to take a photo, but logistics mean that snap shots can’t deliver quality.
“Besides our wedding and the birth of our children, this is probably one of the most precious moments of our lives,” Jimmy said.
“Travelshoot organized everything behind the scenes and kept the whole process very careful. I was very impressed with the quality of the images and the speed of the turnaround.
“We edited and finished our amazing photo in 24 hours.”
