Book a Engagement Photoshoot
on Kos

For summer dates on Santorini, Mykonos or Paros, book 4-8 weeks ahead — June to September is peak season and the best photographers' calendars fill early. Athens and mainland spots like Nafplio are more flexible; two to three weeks is usually enough outside of high season. If your dates are fixed (say, you're combining the shoot with a wedding scouting trip), book as soon as you know them — you can always fine-tune the time and locations later in the chat with your photographer. Last-minute requests are still worth trying: Photo Greece can often match you with an available photographer within days.

Yes — that's one of the most popular reasons couples book an engagement session. You receive high-resolution files with personal usage rights, perfect for printed cards, wedding websites, guest apps and social media announcements. Tell your photographer in advance that save-the-dates are the goal: they'll deliberately shoot some wider compositions with negative space for text, a mix of portrait and landscape orientations, and a few images that work at small print sizes. A Santorini blue-dome frame or the two of you dwarfed by Meteora's rock towers makes an announcement nobody forgets. Delivery is typically within days, so the cards can go out quickly.

Practically, they're the same product — same duration, same pricing from €299, same photographer pool. The difference is intent. An engagement session usually has deliverables in mind: save-the-dates, a wedding website, images that match the aesthetic of your upcoming wedding. Your photographer will plan for that — cleaner compositions, ring details, perhaps echoing the color palette of your wedding venue. A couples session is freer: it documents your trip and your relationship as they are, with more candid wandering. Tell us which one you mean when booking and the session gets planned accordingly; plenty of couples honestly book it as both.

Professional photoshoots in Kos start from €310. Packages vary by duration and the number of edited photos — from a session around Neratzia castle and the harbour to a longer route ending with sunset in the mountain village of Zia.

The Neratzia castle at the mouth of the palm-lined harbour, the ancient agora's columns scattered among pines a few steps from the cafés, Hippocrates' plane tree, the dunes and shallow water of Tigaki, and Zia up on the mountainside, where the whole island spreads out below at sunset.

Morning around the harbour and old town, when the light is low and the waterfront is quiet, then Zia for the last hour of sun — the village faces west and its sunset over the Aegean is the island's ritual. June and September give warm sea and gentle light without the August peak.
