What to Wear to Your Venice Photoshoot

Exploring Venice with a Vacation Photographer

You’ve booked your shoot, and now the big question, WHAT TO WEAR!

Here are our best tips on what to wear for a shoot in Venice, by our photographer, Claudia.

Elegance

Venice is one of the most romantic cities in the world, so something elegant and more formal than your usual tourist clothes would look beautiful among the colorful streets and picturesque bridges of Venice.

Bright Colors or Big Patterns

We suggest rich and bright colors to bring life to the photos and to make you stand out. No black please! White is also a nice choice for a pre-wedding shoot. Try to stray from miniature or small printed fabrics, and if you love pattern, go for a bold floral or geometric print!

Harmony

If you are taking photos with your significant other or your family, try to coordinate a palette of colors for everyone, to make sure that things are cohesive and have a nice harmony in the photos

Shoes

Again elegant shoes look great in Venice! Bring a change of shoes for you to walk around in as you go from location to location, as the streets are cobbled and would be a challenge in heels.

Weather

While the weather is moderate year round, Venice average temperature can range from 55°F all the way to 90°F. Check the weather and prepare to bring a light jacket if it could be chilly or an umbrella if there is a chance of rain. Photoshoots in the rain with an umbrella can be so romantic also!

The Route

Where to change? We can arrange a stop by your hotel on the route, if you would like to change your clothes or rest. We recommend this for shoots 2 hours and longer.
