What sets us apart from any other photographer in Santorini

There might be a lot of photographers in Santorini, but there is only one Santorini Photographer. It is our distinct privilege to forge a connection, be reliable, and offer a tailor-made photoshoot outing you can’t find anywhere else.
Years of experience behind the camera, coupled with a love for showing people around the island, has allowed us to hone our craft and churn out the very best experience for each and every Santorini photoshoot.

 

Discover 5 reasons why we are the #1 choice for photoshoots in Santorini

 

1. Prompt response time

Your vacation time is valuable and you deserve to have your plans set in place before you arrive in Santorini. There is nothing more frustrating than trying to arrange your activities for your upcoming vacation only to have to wait for days to get a response. And when the response is vague or gets lost in translation? Talk about a holiday heartache!

Eliminate the stress of having to sit around and wait for a response when you book a santorini photoshoot with The Santorini Photographer. Receive a response within hours of asking and gain access to a detailed response.
Our promise to you is that you never have to worry about slow, obscure, or half-answered questions when you reach out on inquiries both big and small.

2. Clear understanding of what to expect during a santorini photoshoot

A photoshoot in Santorini deserves to be a few things: memorable, lighthearted, and, above all else, exactly what you expect it to be. Nothing ruins a santorini photoshoot faster than having your expectations squashed due to arriving at locations that are not what you thought they’d be, facing challenges with the rugged terrain, or feeling disappointed with how the photos may turn out.

When you book a photoshoot in santorini with us, there are no hidden secrets. Be privy to a detailed itinerary of where to meet, what to expect in every location such as crowds and lighting, and the images we can achieve there. Feel a sense of ease entering the photoshoot in santorini knowing that what we promise to you during the booking process is what you get.

3. Professional guiding & access to hidden spots

Some people want the same old same old, but you’re not some people. While it’s great to have pictures in the island’s world-famous spots, there runs the chance of massive crowds, tight spaces, or photos that are not differentiated from many of the others you see from Santorini when you shoot in certain locales.

Besides being a Santorini photographer, my other passion is acting as a guide. Get ready to see a side of Santorini you did not know exists, from hidden gems that lie off the beaten path to beautiful virgin beaches. Let me take you on an adventure through the island’s crevices, share with you its epic myths and tales, and find spots that others do not have access to.

4.

Honesty about shooting locations

Not everything is as it appears in postcards. While Santorini is arguably the most picturesque location on earth, there is a time and place to take pictures in certain spots throughout the island. Whether it be avoiding the crowds of Oia at sunset or heading to a beach that truly lives up to the hype, you deserve to have full honesty about your desired destination.
That is why we never take you to a location, no matter how famed, if the experience does not live up to reality. We know the places to avoid when the crowds are flocking and have an upfront conversation with you about this in the booking process.

We want you to know the crowd size, backdrop, and all-around vibes to expect from every locale so we can make an informed decision on what works best for your Santorini photoshoot.

5. Fast high-resolution image delivery via online gallery

In an era where photos are available on a smartphone, it is somewhat of a difficult task have to wait for images from a professional photographer. And since you carved out time and effort to make a photoshoot happen while you are in Santorini, you are especially eager to see the results as quickly as possible.

Receive your professional high-resolution photographs in just a few day’s time so you don’t have to sit around and wait. You are guaranteed to have access to your pictures via an easy-to-use online gallery. View your 50-70 photos taken within a one-hour time frame savor memories to last a lifetime.

Ask the most relevant photoshoot in Santorini FAQs

 

1. Where do people take pictures in Santorini?

It’s no secret that Santorini is stunning from top to bottom, but there are some all-time favorite spots for any photographer in Santorini. The western coast of the island is much-beloved thanks to its spectacular position for brilliant daytime sun and breathtaking sunset views. This includes Imerovigli Fira, and, of course, the world-famous Oia. If you’re looking for something a bit less crowded, consider the beaches along the southern coast or lesser-known villages like Megalochori or Pyrgos.

 

2. What are the best colors to wear for a photoshoot in Santorini?

Santorini’s monochromatic backdrop makes for a captivating pictorial, and the dress code requires careful consideration. Santorini is known for its stark white houses and pops of blue, so you may consider a colorful wardrobe to stay out amongst the light colors. However, it is truly striking to lean into the fair colors and go monochromatic yourself. Consider crisp whites, tasteful khakis, and modest beiges for a truly refined Santorini photoshoot look.

 

3. Where are the most Instagrammable spots in Santorini?

If there was ever an ideal Instagram location, it has to be Santorini! Arguably, the dramatic cliffsides of Oia are the most Instagrammable spot on the island, but they tend to get crowded in the evening. Other Instagram-worthy spots in Santorini include the village of Imerovigli during sunset, Akrotiri Beach during the daytime, or less-visited spots such as the Lighthouse of Akrotiri or the Heart of Santorini in Megalochori, a true-to-its-word romantic natural landmark.

My fiancé and I did a shoot with Panos in Santorini for our engagement. We had the best time! Panos is extremely thorough, experienced, and conversational. He navigated us through the busy streets of Oía with ease because he’s a local which helped immensely given the island is quite crowded during peak tourist season. Ahead of the photoshoot I had some concerns about lighting given my partner and I are different races but Panos completely managed to balance our complexions so neither one of us were washed out or backlit. He turned back our edited photos to us in under 48 hours (more like a bit over a day) which was wonderful! Highly recommend working with him if you’re looking for a couple shoot or solo pictures.

Thank you Panos for a wonderful experience. You did an amazing job capturing our 20 year wedding anniversary pictures. This was our first time taking photos like this since our wedding and you captured some amazing memories. Taking pictures can be stressful and you helped guide us all the way. Very much appreciated and will be recommending you to all our friends.

My husband surprised me for my 30th birthday with a session with Panos! He was amazing. We met early to beat the crowds, spent time at a few different classic Santorini spots, got to talking and learned some things about Greece and got so many beautiful photos (in under 2 days!!) that we will treasure forever!

We had an amazing photo session with Panos. He was very easy to work with and an extremely patient photographer who was willing to guide us - two shy people not used to being photographed - through the session. We felt comfortable and relaxed interacting with him. He's also talented and professional, and we absolutely loved his no-stress-no-fuss vibe. He's super responsive (and his website is very helpful and easy to navigate), and quick in delivering his photos, which we really appreciated. Oh and we LOVE our photos :)))))

We had a wonderful time being photographed by Panos.It was easy to communicate with him prior to our photo shoot and he knew exactly where he wanted to take us for each photo.Our photos are BEAUTIFUL and will be a lasting souvenir for years to come, reminding us of our amazing anniversary in Greece. Thank you, Panos, for your artistic expertise!
We recently had our morning photo shot in Oia with Panos ! From our initial communication, over the planning and details and until the execution and the delivery of our photos everything was spotless and professionally executed ! We couldn't be more positive over our experience and we can only highly recommend him for your own photoshot in santorini ! Apart from an excellent professional, he is also a great person who will make you feel relaxed through out the process ! Thank you very much Panos and rake care until we meet each other again for our evening 📸 sunset session in Imerovigli !!!!!

Perfect for our family photos. Meeting spot was easy to get to. He took all of the combinations of photos that we wanted including some solo photos of my daughter at each location. Received the link with photos very quickly and they turned out great. Such a perfect backdrop in Oia. Highly recommend The Santorini Photographer. Price was great too!

We had a lovely photo shoot with Panos. He curated the most picturesque locations in Santorini. He also accommodated some special requests for our family of 5. He was patient and took his time to ensure that we enjoyed our experience . We are very happy with the experience and the final pictures.

So great! We booked Panos for our family photos and it was such a great experience. We have now added a huge family portrait from the session to our wall in our home. I loved not having to worry about taking photos while on our vacation because I knew Panos would do such a great job and my family was so happy that they only had to do photos once during our vacation. I’m a portrait photographer so I am very picky about who I hire - Panos vibed well with our family of four (including teenagers!) and the photos are beautiful. This is one of the top three best decision we made on our Greece vacation.

We absolutely LOVE our pictures!! Panos was so friendly and easy to work with! He made us feel so comfortable, showing us how to stand and pose to make the pictures just right. He’s also a wealth of knowledge about the area. We had such a great time!
