What it is
The Grand Session is for couples who want the whole island in their gallery: a quiet village in daylight, the caldera at golden hour and the famous view at sunset, without planning a single taxi.
Alexandros's note: I usually start in Pyrgos or Megalochori, where the alleys stay shaded and empty in the late afternoon, then drive to Imerovigli for the open light and finish in Oia after the day-trippers leave.
Transport in Alexandros's car is included between locations and back to your hotel if it is on the route.

A typical session
Pickup in Fira or at your hotel. Pyrgos: shaded alleys, the castle quarter, the view east.
Imerovigli: chapel terrace below Skaros Rock, cliff path.
Oia from the quiet side, windmills and a terrace above the domes.
Sunset and blue hour; drive back to your hotel.
Times for a July date. In spring and autumn everything moves earlier with the sunset.
Where
Sunrise to 09:00 for empty alleys; 60 to 30 minutes before sunset for the domes and the castle.
Morning for the caldera path and rooftops; sunset from a private terrace rather than the main walkway.

Questions
How much does a Santorini photoshoot cost?
Our couple and honeymoon sessions cost €349 for one hour, €499 for two hours in two villages and €649 for three hours across three villages with transport included. Prices are per group of up to four people, with no payment until we confirm your date.
Is the price different if friends come along?
Couple sessions are priced per group of up to four people, so two friends can join at no extra cost. Families of up to six book the Family Session at €349; beyond six people we add €40 per extra family. Larger groups get a quote.
How long is a session?
One, two or three hours for couples, families and tours. A surprise proposal takes about one hour including 20 minutes of portraits after the yes. Elopements run three hours, weddings six or ten.
How many photos will I receive, and are they all edited?
60 or more for one hour, 110 or more for two hours, 160 or more for three hours, 50 or more for a proposal. Every delivered photo is edited for color and light. We do not deliver RAW files.
We arrive on a cruise ship. Can we book?
Yes. We time the session to your tender hours and meet you in Fira or Firostefani, a few minutes from the cable car. One hour is enough for the caldera path and a rooftop; two hours adds Imerovigli. Tell us the ship and its departure time when you request a date.
