FAQs for your Photographer in Santorini, Greece
1. How much experience do you have as a Santorini photographer?
Being a photographer in Santorini is not something I just decided to do one day. I have a lifelong love for photography and even studied it in university, so I have a deep understanding of the art and science behind a great photograph. I shoot many photo sessions in Santorini per year, so I am behind the camera on a daily basis.
2. I’m worried I’ll feel awkward in front of the camera. Can you help?
Feeling awkward or shy in front of the camera is surprisingly normal and something as a photographer I deal with often. My goal is to make you feel comfortable so you look natural in the pictures. I help guide you with posing and arranging groups of people in a way that is flattering. I want you to have a great time during your Santorini photoshoot and I do everything
in my power to make that happen.
3. How many images do you take in a 1-hour photoshoot?
During a 1-hour photo session I snap anywhere between 70 – 100 photos, all of which you receive, no questions asked. Afterward, you are entitled to an extensive online gallery featuring high-resolution horizontal and vertical photos. The cherry on top of the cake is access to the online gallery that stays active for one year.

Panos exceeded every expectation for my daughter’s 21st birthday photoshoot in Santorini. From the moment we started, he made the entire experience feel effortless, fun, and so special. He has an incredible eye for lighting, angles, and capturing authentic moments. All the photos feels elegant and natural.
He is also kind and patient, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. He knew all the perfect locations and he captured the beauty of Santorini while still making my daughter the focus of every shot.
These are memories we’ll treasure forever, and I honestly could not imagine a better photographer for such an important milestone. If you’re looking for someone in Santorini who delivers stunning work and an amazing experience, Panos is the one. Highly recommend!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Panos! We hired him to capture the beauty of Santorini while celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary, and he exceeded every expectation.
From the moment we met, his warm, relaxed nature put us completely at ease, allowing us to genuinely enjoy the experience and be our best selves in front of the camera. His local knowledge was invaluable—he knew all the shortcuts and hidden spots to avoid the crowds, making the entire shoot feel effortless.
Within just a few days, we received a gallery of absolutely breathtaking photos. The quality is truly exceptional—every image looks like it belongs in a luxury wedding album. These are memories we will treasure forever.
If you’re visiting Santorini, I can’t recommend Panos highly enough. Booking a photo session with him will be one of the very best investments of your time on the island!

I picked panos by his amazing pictures and wanted to make sure he would be our actual photographer. He responded promptly and assured us he would. He had great communication and was early to our appointment. He knew all the best locations for our photos. He was polite. Professional. He even shared Santorini facts as we walked around. He knew what he was doing. He helped direct us so we took the best pictures. I was so happy with everything. I would highly recommend panos. He is amazing. The pictures were sent to me within 48 hours as promised and they look beautiful.

This was such an amazing experience! I was very apprehensive at first but Panos made myself and my Fiancé feel super comfortable and relaxed from the beginning which I believe you can see in the photos. I had proposed to my girlfriend on the day so this was a surprise engagement photoshoot and all the photos perfectly reflected that , Panos absolutely understood the type of images we wanted and he delivered. Receiving the collection of professionally edited photos only two days later while we were still on holiday was such a special touch from Panos and phenomenal customer service. The photos themselves were amazing, we both absolutely love them and will be getting them framed and sent to family immediately. Panos clearly knew the local area of imerovigli well, and took us to all kinds of different locations and captured some truly beautiful photos. I couldn’t recommend Panos and this service enough!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely incredible experience with Panos! If you are looking for the absolute best engagement photographer in Santorini, look no further than Panos. From the second we met him, he completely eased our nerves and made us feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera.On the day of our shoot, we faced intense winds, and we were worried it would ruin the photos. Panos didn't miss a beat! He worked his magic with the wind, guided us effortlessly, and turned a challenging weather day into a stunning creative backdrop. The final photos are absolutely astonishing—cinematic, breathtaking, and perfectly captured. We truly couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you so much, Panos, for giving us memories we will cherish forever!

We had an absolutely amazing morning photoshoot with Pano in Oia. Our photographer was not only incredibly talented but also so kind and patient with our 3.5-year-old toddler — even while we were managing a stroller through the narrow streets!
He guided us to hidden photo spots with hardly any people around and even took us through a special path to capture the famous 3 blue domes — without waiting in the long tourist lines. The results were breathtaking — every photo perfectly captured the beauty of Oia and the joy of our family moments.
We couldn’t be happier with the experience and the stunning pictures. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a professional, family-friendly, and fun photoshoot in Santorini!

Panos was so wonderful to work with! He was knowledgeable, personable, and very informative - giving us great history on and tips about Santorini in between photos. He made both my husband and I feel very confident about posing (and we both get nervous during photoshoots!), and he was very timely in getting the photos back to us. 10/10 would do again!

We had the pleasure of working with Panos for the second time, and once again, he exceeded all our expectations! We first met him in 2021, when he did an incredible job capturing beautiful memories for our family. This year, we contacted him again for a family photo shoot in Santorini, this time with our three little children, and the results are absolutely breathtaking.
Panos has a true gift for capturing natural, heartfelt moments, and his photos radiate warmth, joy, and the beauty of Santorini. He made the entire experience relaxed and enjoyable, even with little ones in the mix! Now we have another set of stunning images to treasure for a lifetime.
If you’re visiting one of the most beautiful places in the world and want a professional who will deliver exceptional photos and an unforgettable experience, we cannot recommend Panos enough. His work speaks for itself, and we’re already looking forward to our next session with him.

Panos is the BEST!! Your go to if you need amazing pictures to remember your trip in Santorini. He’s very good in working with people that have no experience to this, he told us exactly what to do, where to put hands, chin and so on to be able to look at our best. When he sent me the pictures I was shocked how good they came out! They are incredible and the colors are amazing, we hardly recognised ourselves. He’s also super patient and didn’t mind going over the time because some other unprofessional photographers took too long in some spots. As a plus he’s a local and super knowledgeable about the island!

I am so pleased with our family photos. Panos did an amazing job! It was so incredibly windy that I did not think we’d get any good pictures but he did. He was so kind and patient. He knew all the beautiful spots to get good pictures. He got our pictures to us in 2 days and was very reasonably priced. My two teenage girls were pleased with the pictures too! I would highly recommend him!

Pre-wedding shoot = 10/10 experience thanks to Panos!🙌📸
From the moment we met, he brought such good vibes, creative energy, and just the right amount of hype to make us feel like absolute stars (even though we were lowkey awkward at first 😂). He knew all the best angles, lighting tricks, and made every shot feel natural and fun.
The photos? Chef’s kiss 💯🔥 We’re obsessed. It's like they took our love and turned it into art.

My (now) finance worked with Panos to surprise me with a proposal during a photo shoot. Not knowing what was happening, I was really nervous in front of a camera but Panos made my partner and I both feel really comfortable. He worked with my partner in the lead up to choose some stunning, secluded locations and gave great advice, helped him keep the ring hidden, and setup a beautiful surprise moment. In hindsight it might've been a bit weird to have a stranger there for our engagement but Panos was so lovely - and we got some beautiful shots!

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.

We had an amazing experience with Panos, the Santorini Photographer!
He is so friendly and kind right from the second you book your appointment, he keep in touch and give you all the information you need.
We honestly could not be happier with the result. The photographer put us both at complete ease and knew exactly where we needed to be to get the best shots. The quality of the photos taken is outstanding he really do ensure he capture amazing pictures of you and make you feel amazing. Also, the delivery time of the photos was unexpected fast, he told us 48 hours, we received the photos, retouched, in less than 24 hours ! Amazing job ! This entire experience was really healing, and I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to take that leap and invest in themselves.

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 :)))))

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.
