Dimosthenis was very helpful in the setup of the shoot. He even helped me find my transportation to the meeting spot. He was kind, courteous and funny and I'm very pleased with my photos. It wasn't just a shoot. It was a memory.-TiffanyView Photographer profile
Dimosthenis is just awesome! He was on time, he made us comfortable and relaxed during the photo shoot, and made the whole session fun. He is even good with kids, our grandson had a great time as well. All the pictures are just superb and beautiful. Made our Santorini tour more memorable. Highly recommend him!-Cora MView Photographer profile
Dimos was amazing! He made us feel very comfortable during our photoshoot! He listened to exactly the kind of pictures that I was looking for to caption our honeymoon. He took us to beautiful places in Oia where we got amazing photos!! Truly he knew all the spots, and even if a spot had a bunch of people waiting to take a pic, he was quick with judgment and brought us to a better spot to save time. He recommended we meet at 6.45 am and it was perfect, not to hot and not any crowds to get in our photos. I am very happy that I choose him. My friends and family said our photos are stunning and beautiful! Thank you SO much Dimos!!!"-DanaView Photographer profile
Kristo was amazing. Very professional and meticulous for the important shots. Furthermore, he played a huge role in my surprise proposal but pretending to be a an ordinary tourist who was able to capture the moment naturally.-Jake GolowView Photographer profile
Panos was extremely helpful before we even got there. We were on a cruise, and he helped me with details like the Uber and where to eat. Once the shoot started, he helped us navigate, carry things, and pose. He was friendly, and we plan on using him again the next time we visit.-RebeccaView Photographer profile
We had such a great time during our photoshoot! Dimosthenis was so nice from the moment we met and made sure everyone was comfortable while assisting with poses. He beautifully captured the morning light while leading us to some amazing Santorini backdrops!-KatieView Photographer profile
It was a pleasure working with Dimosthenis. His 7-year background in photography really shines in the photos he takes and his well-liked mannerisms to his clients.

He was one of the first ones to reach out to me when I inquired about photography services. He understood what we wanted in our photo shoot, set realistic expectations for us, and even gave us some pointers.

On the day of the shoot, he arrived at the meeting point earlier than we did. He was well prepared as he knew all the great spots to take beautiful photos around Oia. Dimosthenis is a very likable and charismatic guy, and it would be a pleasure to work with him again.

Thank you for making our dream shoot come true!-BenView Photographer profile
Our shoot and photographer were both outstanding. It was a great experience. My wife and I both felt comfortable and had a ton of fun.-ChadView Photographer profile
Dimosthenis was very nice and patient with our family! We love our photos!-ChristineView Photographer profile
Dimosthenis is a magician with a camera! He was so patient and helpful throughout our photoshoot. All of our photos came out amazing!

Thank you, Dimosthenis, for the wonderful experience and memories of our trip to Santorini that we’ll cherish forever.-Marina & JordanView Photographer profile

We can’t get enough of Lake Como! So many places and things to do that we need to get picky and choose the best of the best. And one of our favorite spots is Bellagio. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Bellagio is small and compact. Many of the roads are pedestrian-only, perfect for strolling and exploring. That’s why walking will show you everything you need to see. ⁣
⁣
But to keep things interesting, here are some of the top things to do in Bellagio: ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
📍Go to the viewpoint on Via Giuseppe Garibaldi and get the best view of Bellagio. ⁣⁣
📍Visit the Basilica of San Giacomo⁣⁣
📍Stroll in the Melzi Gardens⁣⁣
📍Catch the view of Menaggio, Varenna, and numerous other towns from Punta Spartivento⁣⁣
📍Visit the fishing villa of Pescallo⁣⁣
📍Go for a swim at the Lido de Bellagio⁣⁣
📍Take a boat tour of Lake Como⁣

Hi, beautiful mom-to-be! That bump deserves to be captured and celebrated . . . on your babymoon! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Let’s plan a photoshoot during your babymoon, where you will feel more relaxed and at a beautiful destination. But when is it the best time to do it? ⁣
⁣
Most pregnant ladies choose to do their babymoon photoshoot between weeks 28 and 36 because the belly has a nice round shape, and they still feel comfortable enough to do the shoot. But the sweet spot is at week 30. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Just keep in mind that every pregnancy is different, so watch how your body develops and make your photoshoot decision accordingly.⁣

A vacation photo shoot is not only great for the photos you’ll get at the end, but also for the memories and new friends you make along the way: ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
“Sara was truly fantastic. These photos were booked months in advance, and in the meantime, my boyfriend turned into my fiancé.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
She was willing to do a mixture of couples photos and engagement photos. She helped me choose outfits in colors that would photograph best on the beach and was incredibly responsive when I had questions or concerns.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Once we got here, we had to watch the weather due to Hurricane Idalia, and she even reached out to change the night of our shoot to avoid rain twice!⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
We ended up having a gorgeous day (with a rainbow and everything!!!), and our pictures came out stunning. She had our photos back to us even sooner than the timeline she gave us!!⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
She is fantastic, and we will treasure these photos forever. We highly highly recommend Sara!”⁣⁣ — Daniella⁣⁣
