What it is
Two hours is the sweet spot for a Santorini session. The first hour goes to the open terraces of Imerovigli, where nobody waits behind you for the spot; the second to Oia, where we arrive from the quiet side while the crowd gathers at the castle.
Alexandros's note: I drive the ten minutes between the villages while you take the taxi, so no time is lost. If the wind picks up on the caldera side we switch the order and shoot Oia's inner alleys first.
The Signature Session is also our engagement and pre-wedding session: the same two hours, the same ladder, with the outfits and the places you have in mind.

A typical session
Imerovigli: chapel terrace, cliff path, the blue-domed church above the square.
Taxi to Oia, ten minutes. Outfit change at the car park if you like.
Oia from the quiet side: the windmills, a terrace above the domes, the castle steps before the sunset crowd.
Blue hour on the Ammoudi steps, then the walk back up.
Times for a July date. Sunrise sessions run the same route in reverse, starting at 06:30.
Where
Sunrise to 09:00 for empty alleys; 60 to 30 minutes before sunset for the domes and the castle.

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.
