If you’re planning a visit to the stunning cliffside village of Positano and want more than just a few snapshots on your phone, a 2-hour professional photo shoot could be just the ticket. Offered by Giuseppe Di Martino, this guided photo session promises to take you through some of Positano’s most picture-perfect spots — from the lively main square to its iconic beaches — all while expertly capturing your moments. Priced at $320.99 per group (up to 5 people), this experience is designed to create lasting memories and top-tier images, whether you’re with a loved one or a small family group. It’s a privately guided tour, meaning you won’t be stuck in a giant crowd, and the photographer will focus on your group’s wishes.
What I really like about this experience is how it balances professionalism with flexibility. First, Giuseppe, the photographer, is praised for taking care of the details and ensuring all your wishes are met — which makes the whole process smooth and relaxed. Second, the tour covers key Positano highlights: starting from Piazza dei Mulini, winding through the charming streets of the old town, and finishing at either Spiaggia Grande or Fornillo Beach. That diversity gives you a wide range of backgrounds for your photos, from lively squares to peaceful seaside views. That said, a consideration to keep in mind is that booking needs to be made roughly 34 days in advance, so it’s best to plan early if you’re set on this experience.
Key Points:
– Professionally shot photos ensure high-quality keepsakes of your trip.
– Personalized experience focusing on your favorite spots and wishes.
– Flexible for couples, families, or small groups (up to 5 people).
– Convenient private tour, avoiding crowded, generic photo spots.
– Beautiful scenery from different angles: squares, narrow streets, beaches.
– Ideal for capturing romantic or family moments in one of Italy’s most photogenic villages.
Exploring the Positano Photo Shoot: What to Expect
This experience is designed to give you a taste of Positano’s charm through the lens of a professional. It lasts around 2 hours, which is enough time to explore several of the most photogenic corners of the town without feeling rushed. Starting at Piazza dei Mulini, the main square, you’ll get your first shots amid the vibrant local atmosphere, with its colorful shops and lively cafes. The guide photographer will suggest picturesque angles and guide you to the best spots for photos, ensuring each picture captures the essence of Positano.
From there, you’ll stroll through the meandering alleyways and steps of the old town, where the narrow streets lined with pastel-colored buildings and blooming bougainvillea create natural backdrops. The photographer’s expertise means you’ll probably get some fun candid shots, as well as more composed, romantic poses. The route then takes you to the beaches: Spiaggia Grande, the main beach, is lively with umbrellas and boats, providing a fun, energetic setting. Alternatively, Fornillo Beach offers a quieter, more relaxed vibe, ideal for capturing peaceful seaside scenes.
Throughout the session, the photographer will focus on the most significant and beautiful settings to ensure your photos aren’t just typical tourist shots. According to happy clients, Giuseppe takes care to meet all your wishes — one reviewer fondly calls him a “dedicated professional who made everything very pleasant.” The private setting means you can relax and be yourselves, knowing you’ll have beautiful, natural images to remember your trip.
Travel Tips: Wear comfortable shoes, ready for some walking and stairs — Positano’s streets are charming but often steep. Also, consider bringing a few outfit options if you want different styles or moods captured.
Booking and Cost: To secure this experience, booking about a month or more ahead is wise, especially during peak season, as it’s quite popular. The price of $320.99 includes the service for your group, and you’ll receive professionally edited photos afterward.
Who Is This Tour Best For?

It’s also a good fit if you enjoy having a local expert guide your photo session, ensuring you hit the best angles and spots without guesswork. Bear in mind that the 2-hour duration means you should come prepared to walk and explore, so it’s not suitable for those with limited mobility or who prefer a more stationary activity.
Value-wise, considering the quality of the photos and the personalized treatment, this option offers a strong return on investment, especially for those wanting professional images of their trip rather than casual snapshots.
