An Engagement Photo Shoot in Venice will help you understand what to expect on your wedding day.
You will learn from Us something about Shooting posing. It's also useful for taking Photos for your Save-the-Date Cards.
It will also be useful because you will have professional and quality photos of the two of you not in a wedding dress in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
Choosing Venice for your engagement photoshoot elevates your celebration into an unforgettable experience. While your hometown holds special meaning, Venice provides a truly unique and breathtaking backdrop that symbolizes romance, history, and adventure. It’s an opportunity to create a timeless collection of photographs that are completely different from anything else you’ll have. It’s a chance to turn a photoshoot into a "pre-honeymoon" experience, exploring a new city together and celebrating your commitment in a way you’ll never forget.
I usually don’t plan the exact location of the Shooting. When I meet my clients we walk and stop to shoot along the way, I follow the light and I always create the best composition I can. If there is any location in mind you want to Shoot I’m more than happy to hear about it!
I guide my clients for posing naturally and any pose is designed to get Couples interacting as they normally do.
Many Shoots are taken while the Couple is not even realizing that! Most of the time they are so overwhelmed by their love surrounded by the incredible beauty of Venice that they hug and kiss forgetting for a while about me! And those are the Picture I prefer!!
This question deserves a Blog Article.: What to wear to a Venice Photoshoot!!! Since in our Engagement Photo Shoots we represent Venice in a cinematic way, we want to recommend an elegant look for him (You don't need a suit, don't be afraid, but even just a white shirt works well) and for her a flying Red, Bordeaux, Green or any color you want Dress. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable.
If you get the chance and everything is on budget, DO IT!!!!!!
It is very important that a Pro does the hair and makeup for your Engagement Photo Session, especially in Venice.
Liz and her team will focus primarily on enhancing eyes and lips.
Hairstyle is equally important because it gives dynamism and movement to the portraits.
Their experience always gives to our Engagement Photo Shoots in Venice that cinematic effect and quality touch that we as Photographers want to give you.

I would also recommend a manicure. As we love taking close up pictures especially of the Engagement Ring!

There is no right or wrong season, If you are getting married during the summer I suggest to have the Engagement Shooting during fall/winter. If you are getting married in a snowy time I suggest to have way different pictures during the summer.
The best light is at sunset and especially sunrise where Venice is not crowded by tourists. Getting a Gondola or a Water Taxi drive is another is highly recommended!
So, start to plan your Engagement Photoshoot in Venice!!
Planning your Venice engagement photoshoot should be an exciting and stress-free experience, especially when traveling from abroad. We’ve answered some of the most common questions to help you understand our process, what to expect, and how we guarantee a seamless experience. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to contact us!
Our prices start from €300, and all packages can be customized to your specific needs. We offer a variety of options that allow you to hire CB as your Venice engagement photographer for durations ranging from 30 minutes to two hours. Every package is flexible. As a local, We know the city like the back of our hand and can quickly reach any location. For our longer packages, you can include an outfit change, which can be done at your hotel if it's near San Marco or Rialto.
We recommend booking your photoshoot as early as possible, especially if you have a specific date in mind. Venice is a popular destination year-round, and our calendar fills up quickly, particularly during the peak seasons of spring and fall.
A reservation 1 month in advance allows us to secure your preferred date. For last-minute bookings, please contact us to check for availability—we'll do our best to accommodate you!
We offer several packages, but the one-hour and one-and-a-half-hour options are the most popular for an engagement session. As we mentioned, this amount of time allows you to take photos in numerous locations. A 30-minute gondola ride can be included in any package except the 30-minute one.
Venice is a magical place with endless photographic opportunities. However, it's essential to consider that the city can be very crowded, especially in the summer months. An experienced Venice engagement photographer knows how to navigate the crowds to find the best locations for unforgettable photos. For a dawn photoshoot, when tourism is at a minimum, we can capture stunning images in iconic spots like St. Mark's Square and along the Grand Canal. For engagement sessions later in the morning or just before sunset, we prefer to focus on quieter, less-known areas. As a local, I know hidden streets and bridges with breathtaking backdrops that will make your engagement photos unique. The narrow alleyways leading from San Marco to the Accademia district offer fantastic, intimate settings.
We will send you from 25 until 150 jpeg edited pictures ( it depends which package you choose) in High Quality Format via We transfer in 3 days. If you want you can have the original files with an extra cost of Euro 100.
It's completely normal to feel awkward in front of the camera; this often makes people hesitate to hire a Venice engagement photographer. But there's no need to worry! When we notice clients are feeling uneasy, we guide them with simple posing advice to put them at ease. Without them even realizing it, they become comfortable and natural in front of the camera after just a few minutes. Even our shyest clients tell us at the end of their engagement photoshoot that they had a lot of fun.
Your engagement photos are more than just a beautiful souvenir; they are a versatile tool to announce and celebrate your upcoming marriage. Couples often use their photos for a variety of purposes, including:
"Save-the-Date" Cards: Give your guests a beautiful first look at your wedding theme.
Wedding Invitations: Add a personal and elegant touch to your official invitations.
Wedding Websites & Social Media: Share your love story and photos with friends and family online.
Prints & Wall Art: Decorate your home with timeless portraits of this special time.
Guestbooks: Create a beautiful photo guestbook for your wedding day, filled with your Venice memories.
We will reschedule the Engagement Photo Shoot for the first available date!! The floods phenomenon called "acqua alta" it is not a problem and it is NOT DANGEROUS!!! Instead it is an opportunity to see Venice in a unique way!!! anyway is just a winter phenomenon!!
If you want you can add a Gondola or a Taxi Ride and the price is from Euro 90/130, it depends on the driver and where you want to rent it.
Booking in advance ensures availability, especially for private water taxis. Learn how to plan ahead in The Best Transportation Options for Your Venice Photoshoot.
This is probably the question we get asked most often. We always recommend wearing elegant clothing because Venice is an incredibly romantic city. For women, a long dress can create magnificent effects in photos. We don't recommend black if the day is not sunny, as the images might appear too dark. However, if you prefer a more casual look, that works just as well! The most important thing is that you both have a consistent style, and your outfits harmonize perfectly.
