Flying dresses · Couples · Families
A flying dress above the caldera, a photo tour through the white villages, or a half or full day with a local photographer — for couples, honeymooners, families and friends. Packages from €200.
Why with us
The light changes fast, the famous corners are crowded at the wrong hour, and a flying dress needs someone whose only job is the fabric.
We pick the place and the time for the light, and arrange the photographer, the dress and the transport through our concierge. It works before or after a wedding, on a honeymoon or an anniversary, or for a family who want everyone in one picture.
Getting married with us? We fit the session into your week so it never competes with the wedding — or with the pre-wedding dinner the night before.
Three ways to shoot
From thirty minutes in a flying dress to a full day across the island.
A luxury dress, the caldera behind you, and an assistant whose whole job is to make the fabric fly at the right second. One or two dresses from the collection — for you, or for two couples.
From €200 · 30 minutes to 2 hours
No special dress — a one- or two-hour shoot for the two of you, or for a group of up to seven, with transport included. A good choice for family pictures.
From €250 · 1 or 2 hours
A local professional photographer for your best angles and your most candid moments. Time for several locations, a change of outfit, the sunset and the blue hour after it.

Where to shoot
We suggest the spot for the light and the crowds on your day. A few of our favourites.
White houses, blue domes and windmills, and the most famous sunset on the island. Beautiful, and very busy at sunset — come at sunrise and you have the lanes almost to yourselves. Couples marrying at our Love Cave venue are already here.
The caldera path from Fira to Imerovigli: cliff-edge views, the bell towers of Firostefani and Skaros Rock, with far fewer people than Oia.
Our village, and home to Madame Sousou: a medieval hilltop of lanes and stairways in the middle of the island, with a view over all of Santorini — the sunset reaches it last.
The capital on the cliff edge, with caldera views from every terrace and the old port steps far below. Best early, before the cruise-ship crowds.
Down the steps below Oia to the water: red cliffs, fishing boats and the sea at your feet — a quieter frame for the golden hour.
Black volcanic sand at Perissa and Perivolos, or the sculpted cliffs of Vlychada — a different Santorini from the caldera, best early in the day.
Real couples
Good to know
The hour before sunset gives the softest light, and sunrise gives empty streets. Midday light is harsh and flat, so we avoid it.
Getting married here? Shoot a day or two before or after the wedding, not on the morning itself.
Santorini is windy, especially in July and August when the meltemi blows — it helps a flying dress and challenges loose hair.
Bring pins, and something warm for after sunset.
Light, flowing fabrics and soft colours work against white walls and blue domes — white, cream, pastels, terracotta.
Wear shoes you can walk in on cobbles and steps, and bring a second outfit for a longer session.
Questions
What couples usually ask us before they book.
Our flying dress sessions are €200 (30 minutes, 10 edited photos), €300 (1 hour, 20 edited photos) and €450 (2 hours, 40 edited photos). Photo tours without a dress are €250 for one hour and €400 for two. Half-day and full-day sessions with a photographer are priced on request.
Sunrise and the hour before sunset give the softest light; midday light in Santorini is harsh, so we avoid it. If you are getting married here, book it a day or two before or after the wedding, not on the day itself.
Not for a flying dress session — one or two dresses from the collection are included, and you can choose in advance from the flying dress catalogue. For a photo tour or a half- or full-day shoot, you wear your own outfits.
Yes. The flying dress packages cover up to two people, and Santorini Moments can be two couples. The photo tours take up to 4–7 people, which makes them a good choice for family pictures.
Between 10 and 60 edited photos depending on the package, all the unedited photos on request, a short video for social media and unlimited usage rights — print them, post them, share them.
Yes, in every package except Santorini Express, where we meet you at your hotel or at an agreed spot.
Oia for the classic white-and-blue pictures, ideally at sunrise before the crowds; the caldera path between Fira and Imerovigli for cliff views with fewer people; and Pyrgos for old lanes and a view over the whole island. We suggest the spot for the light and the time of day you choose.
Yes. We have set up proposals on the edge of the caldera with a photographer there for the moment — Esha & Akshay’s is one of them. Tell us it is a surprise when you write, and we will keep it that way.
Book
Tell us the date, roughly what time of day and which session you have in mind — we will confirm the photographer, the dress and the pick-up.
