Our approach
Italy, through a local lens
Photoshoot Italy is not a platform. We are a small team of Italian photographers, each living in the city they shoot in: Rome, Florence, Venice, the Amalfi Coast. One approach guides all of us: relaxed guidance, real moments, and care from the first message to the final gallery.
It started with Maria photographing travellers in Rome. When people began asking for Florence, for Venice, for the coast, we grew the only way that kept the experience intact: one photographer at a time, each chosen for how they treat people, not just for their portfolio.
The difference is local
More than a beautiful backdrop
A route that works
We plan around the light, crowd levels and the actual walking time between places, not a generic checklist.
Direction that feels natural
No modelling experience needed. Your photographer gives gentle prompts, then makes room for the moments that are already happening.
A local eye
From a quiet Venetian canal to a clifftop view in Positano, your photographer knows where the place becomes part of the story.
How it started
Meet the founders
Photoshoot Italy started with the two of us. Maria is the photographer, the eye behind the camera, the one who knows where the light falls and how to make a stranger feel at ease in front of a lens. Luca handles everything else: the planning, the messages, the small logistics that let a photoshoot feel effortless.
What began with Maria photographing travellers around Rome grew, city by city, into a small group of local photographers who share the same values. What made those first sessions special was never the camera. It was the care behind it.
How it works
Easy to plan. Easy to be in.

Meet your photographer
Arrive with no posing experience required. We guide you through the session and keep it relaxed.
Receive the gallery
Your images are selected and hand-edited, then delivered in high resolution within 4–5 business days.
After the shoot
A gallery worth keeping
After your session, we select and hand-edit your images for light, colour and clarity. Your high-resolution gallery arrives within 4–5 business days, with 48-hour express delivery available when your trip timeline is tighter. The result is ready to download, share and print.
Wherever you shoot, your photographer lives there. Ask them where to eat, what's worth the detour, which piazza empties out at seven. That part isn't in the package. It comes with booking someone who actually lives in the city.
