What it is
The film is the part people replay. Alexandros records the proposal with a second camera while photographing it, then adds the walk-in, the reaction and, where the spot allows, a drone pass over the caldera. The edit stays short on purpose: one to two minutes, no slow-motion clichés.
Alexandros's note: drones are not allowed over the villages, so the aerial shots come from the cliff path or from the sea. On a terrace in Oia the film still works; it is just made of faces instead of landscapes.
Watch the sample film on the films page to see the pace and the grading.

How the film is made
We confirm on the planning call whether your spot allows a drone.
Second camera on a tripod at the hidden position; Alexandros shoots photos first, film second.
Short walking sequence and, where allowed, a drone pass.
Film delivered with the photos' color grade, in both formats.
Weather can ground the drone; the film is then made from the ground footage.
Where
Morning for the caldera path and rooftops; sunset from a private terrace rather than the main walkway.
Sunrise to 09:00 for empty alleys; 60 to 30 minutes before sunset for the domes and the castle.

Reviews
“Alexandros was incredible. He made us feel completely at ease and the photos came back in 3 days, 42 stunning images. Best decision we made for our Santorini trip.”
“He captured my proposal perfectly. She had no idea he was there. The photos are breathtaking. We've already recommended Alexandros to three other couples.”
Questions
Can you fly a drone in Santorini?
Only where it is permitted. Alexandros is an EASA-registered drone operator, but the village centers, crowds and the airport zone are off limits, so drone footage is possible on open terraces, cliffs and at sea rather than above Oia. We tell you in advance whether your spot allows it.
Can you also film it or bring a second photographer?
Yes. The proposal film (€390) adds a one to two minute edit, with drone footage where permitted. For weddings a second photographer costs €350 and a wedding film starts at €1,490.
