Book a Wedding Photoshoot
in Paxos & Antipaxos

Professional photoshoots on Paxos start from €279. Packages differ by duration and the number of edited photos — one to two hours, roughly €279 to €450, covers Gaios and the channel in front of the Panagia islet, or Loggos harbour and an olive terrace above it. A boat session over to Antipaxos is quoted separately, because the boat is an extra cost.

Gaios waterfront, with the wooded Panagia islet across the channel, is the classic opening. Loggos gives a harbour the size of a courtyard and stone quays. The Erimitis cliffs on the west coast take the sunset head-on. On Antipaxos, Vrika and Voutoumi supply the turquoise water people come for, and the terraced olive groves work all day in dappled light.

Gaios and Loggos face roughly east, so they are calm and warm at sunrise and shaded by late afternoon; Erimitis is the sunset side. Antipaxos beaches look best between nine and eleven, before the day boats arrive and while the water still reads clear. May, June, September and early October give warm sea without the August crowd, and most tavernas close by November.

Only by boat. Day caïques leave Gaios and Loggos through the morning and return mid-afternoon, and water taxis run on demand for a fixed fare; a small hired boat buys you the beaches before the crowd lands. Vrika and Voutoumi have no road access and almost no shade at midday. Check the last return time before you plan anything near sunset.

For peak-season dates — May through October, and especially Saturdays on Santorini or Mykonos — book 6-12 months ahead. The best-reviewed photographers are often the first vendors to sell out after the venue itself. Shoulder-season and weekday weddings are far more flexible; three to four months is usually comfortable. If your date is closer than that, don't assume it's hopeless: availability shifts, and Photo Greece can check the whole vetted roster for your date at once instead of you emailing photographers one by one. When comparing, look at full wedding galleries rather than portfolio highlights — how a photographer handles a dim taverna dinner tells you more than their best ten frames.

Work backwards from the moments you can't lose. An intimate ceremony with dinner fits in 4-5 hours: preparations, vows, couple portraits at golden hour, first toasts. A classic full wedding day — getting ready through the first dances — runs 8-10 hours. Greek weddings tend to run long and warm up late; if your party will peak at midnight with plate-worthy dancing, budget coverage for it or arrange a set finishing time you're at peace with. One Greece-specific tip: schedule couple portraits around sunset, not the ceremony's end — in summer that golden window is what your photographer will plan the whole timeline around. Discuss your running order with your photographer and they'll recommend honest hours, not maximum hours.
