When is the best time to schedule your romantic couple photoshoot in Venice, Italy?
Sunset and sunrise are the best time to schedule your photoshoot.
You can expect to get the level of gorgeous glowing light that you have seen in Stefano’s galleries, blog, or Instagram.
All your memories are precisely captured during the golden hour and then beautifully post-produced to achieve a film-like, timeless look.
Venice is a very crowded city: all year round you will find the main spots and streets packed with lots of tourists competing to take selfies and photos.
How to find out the exact time you should be scheduling your session: Google for sunrise and sunset time + the date of the year. (For example “Venice sunset time April 4th”)
For sunrise photoshoots, It’s best to meet as soon as the sun starts to rise.
For sunset sessions, It’s recommended to start 2,5/3 hours before the sun completely sets.
During sunrise: the light is soft and dreamy, and the city is empty. Silence. The only voices will be ours. It will feel like living in a dream of pastel colors. Breakfast with croissants and espresso. You are able to photograph stunning places otherwise impossible to see empty later in the day.
During sunset: Venice is full of life and colors. The warm sunlight is shining on every building creating a warm glow around every component of the frame. For a more enjoyable experience, it’s best to avoid really crowded areas during peak season.

This is the most famous square in the world, and it's the perfect spot for your engagement photos or wedding photos. Take advantage of this opportunity to take stunning shots with your significant other (or future spouse), and enjoy a private session with your photographer!
St. Mark's Square is the center of Venice, and it's known for its beautiful architecture, art, and history. It was built in the 11th century, and it has been a major tourist attraction ever since.

The best way to get around Venice is by boat, but when you're looking for a more intimate experience, a taxi is the perfect way to go.
The city is known for its canals, which were built to allow people to travel from one side of the city to the other without having to walk through its narrow streets. The canals are filled with gondolas and other boats that are often rented out for private tours of the city. But if you want something more private, there's nothing like taking a taxi ride through these beautiful waterways!

The sun is shining, the canals are glistening, and the love is in the air.
You and your partner are soaking up the Italian sun and enjoying a moment of bliss among Venice's gorgeous canals. And there's no better way to celebrate your love than with a glass of Aperol spritz—the iconic Italian drink that's all about joy, excitement, and fun.
The Aperol Spritz is one of the most well-known cocktails in Italy and around the world. Its simple ingredients—Aperol, sparkling water and Prosecco—combine to create a delicious, refreshing drink that has become a symbol of Italian culture.

It's not every day you get to walk through St. Mark's Square in Venice, Italy. But if you are lucky enough to be there, it's even rarer that you get to do it with your partner, and in the privacy of your own photographer.
This couple's photoshoot was photographed at Cafe Florian, one of the most iconic cafes in Venice.
The cafe was founded in 1720 and used to be a meeting point for Venetian writers, poets and artists. Today it still serves as a meeting place for locals and tourists alike. The cafe also serves delicious pizza and drinks!
Cafe Florian is located right in the center of St. Mark's Square in front of the Basilica San Marco. It offers an amazing view of the city center and its famous landmarks like the Campanile bell tower and the Doge's Palace.
