Photoshoot in Santorini

My name is Jessica and I will be your photographer. I will meet you at any location in Santorini you wish to start the photoshoot. Pick up and drop off is included. We will visit Oia village, Firostefani village and Imerovigli. We will take photos of you at the most famous spots with the blue domes. You can choose the dress you wish and we will bring it to you. Please select the dress (between red, blue, pink, purple, yellow and black in our photos) as soon as you make the booking. Dress is included in the price. On the day of the photoshoot, the photographer brings the dress with her making all the adjustments needed for it to fit perfectly. Other locations within the island can be replaced upon request of the client. Santorini flying dress photoshoot is one of the most exciting things to do. You can also bring your outfit at the photoshoot. All photos are edited. We provide a link to download minimum 80 photos. No copyrights or watermarks.

Best time of the year to visit santorini

The best time to visit Santorini is from September to October and April to May when the weather is warm and the crowds are scarce. Like all of the Cyclades, Santorini welcomes the most visitors during the summer, so you’ll need to make your reservations months in advance if you plan on visiting anytime from June through August. Looking for a bargain? Try winter, when room rates tend to plummet. Keep in mind that this season’s average highs only reach the 50s (not good for sunbathing) and the region sees plenty of precipitation. However, all that rain does make for a very flowery (and warm) spring season. Crowds will be at a low in the spring as well, though tourists will begin invading the islands come May.

 

April-May The tourist season starts around Easter each year, and predominantly Greek and European visitors begin their island pilgrimages at this time. Keep in mind that Easter itself can be quite busy. The temperatures are mild, hovering between the 60s and 70s for most of the spring months. While it may still be a bit too cold to don a swimsuit, you’ll find that the weather is perfect for sightseeing. Be sure to bring a warm jacket for the cool evenings.

  • Easter (April-May)
June-August The summer marks Santorini’s peak season, as well as the best weather for swimming. Visitors flock to the area in search of the perfect beach vacation. If you decide to brave the heavy crowds, make sure to book your hotel at least two months in advance to ensure availability.

Key Events:

September-October The Aegean water is still warm in September and October, most days are sunny, and daytime temperatures typically hover in the 70s and 80s. Much of the tourist infrastructure is still open for business – despite the thinning crowds. And thankfully, fewer crowds cause room rates to drop. Beware, however, that some restaurants, hotels and other establishments begin to close for the season in late October or early November and won’t reopen until spring.
November-March This is the least popular time to visit Santorini thanks to temperatures in the 50s – hardly pleasant for sunbathing. The wintertime also sees the most precipitation, which trumpets forth a blossom-filled spring. You can find great deals in the offseason, but consider the downsides of less pleasant weather and many closed tourist hot spots. Not only that, but public transportation schedules are abbreviated.
