Santorini gets a little dress-flying magic. This private session gives you a dedicated photographer and an assistant who helps with changing and the dress-flying moments, all timed around the best light and locations. I also like the clear photo plan, you get 15 color-corrected previews and a smaller set that gets deeper retouching. One thing to consider upfront: the package includes only one dress for one woman, and dress sharing is not allowed.

You start with planning, not guesswork. After booking, your manager reaches out to confirm your group size, pick your preferred time of day, and align on poses or location requests, plus your dress choice. If you want easy pickup, you can meet in the city center or arrange hotel pickup if it is nearby, with optional private transfers if you are coming from farther out.

Key Things to Know Before You Go

• Private 1 hour 15 minutes shoot focused on photos, not wandering around with no plan
• One dress per woman is included, with dress sharing not permitted
• Assistant support to help with changing and the dress-flying effect
• Two-step photo delivery: previews within 10 days, full editing within 30 calendar days
• Meet in Imerovigli area and base your shoot around Santorini’s most picturesque spots
• Weather matters, and you get a redo date or a full refund if canceled for poor conditions

How the Flying Dress Shoot Works in Imerovigli

This experience is built around one goal: getting you into gorgeous photos with minimal hassle. You are not doing this alone. A photographer meets you in Santorini’s village area chosen during planning and brings your selected dress, with an assistant on hand to make the whole process feel smooth.

The shoot itself is about giving you real direction. You walk between the most scenic locations available and capture your moments with time to change if needed. It is not the kind of thing where you hold a pose for 10 minutes and hope it turns out. The assistant and photographer help keep things moving so you can focus on looking comfortable and natural.

The experience ends back at the meeting point, so you are not left figuring out how to get back afterward. That sounds small, but it matters when you are trying to enjoy your day rather than manage logistics.

Your Planning Call: What You Should Tell Them

What makes this work well is the amount of setup done before the day. Once your booking is complete, the manager contacts you to nail down the basics: how many participants you have, what time of day you prefer, and any pose or location requests you already have in mind. You also choose your dream dress as part of that process.

Then, a few days before your session, they confirm everything again. This is the part I appreciate most, because it prevents the classic vacation problem of showing up and learning, too late, that something is missing or misaligned. If you have specific ideas, this is your window. Ask for them early and keep requests clear, like a style of pose you like and the vibe you want the photos to have.

One more practical note: the dress included is listed as a plain dress from their catalog, and it is available in sizes XS to XXL. Also, certain dress types are not included, like cloud, fluffy, or glitter dresses. If your dream look depends on a very specific texture, confirm it during dress selection so there are no surprises.

The Dress: Included Plain Style, Sizes, and What Extras Cost

The core value is that you do not have to shop for a dress or stress over bringing the right fabric and fit. Your package includes one plain dress for one woman only. That includes an assistant to help with the dress-flying effect.

Here is the key boundary to understand: dress sharing is not permitted. If more than one woman wants to wear a dress, you will need an additional dress for the second woman. The cost is listed as from €100, depending on style. There is also a child’s dress option for €60.

Family and friends can join for free, which is great if your partner wants photos too, or if a friend wants to watch and help you feel calm. But if you want two women in full dress mode, budget for the additional dress. This is the biggest decision point for value.

Also, do not underestimate the benefit of having your dress handled on-site. It means your photoshoot outfit is brought to you, you can change with help, and the photographer can plan shots around the dress you actually have.

Stop 1 in Imerovigli: Getting the Photos You Actually Want

Your shoot focuses on Santorini’s best available spots, and Imerovigli is specifically listed as the starting stop. In real terms, this means your photographer is working from a small set of high-impact places, so you spend less time walking around guessing and more time making photos.

What you will do during the session is simple:

• You meet at the chosen meeting point area near the best photoshoot spots.
• The photographer brings your dress and gets you ready.
• You move through picturesque locations while capturing moments in the dress.
• You finish back at the meeting point.

The practical advantage is pacing. A private setup means the photographer can spend time on what looks good for your specific dress and your specific comfort level, instead of splitting attention across a large group. If you are camera-shy, this format is usually easier, because the direction stays focused on you.

The one drawback is weather dependency. This is a shoot where the timing and conditions really matter. If the conditions are poor, the experience can be canceled, and you will be offered a different date or a full refund.

Photo Delivery: Previews First, Then Full Editing

This service is unusually organized about how you get your images. Within 10 days after your session, you receive previews that are lightly color corrected. From there, you choose your favorites.

Then the fully edited images are completed within 30 calendar days after you pick. The deliverables include high-resolution files plus a social media optimized version. That second part matters more than people think, because it saves you from doing your own resizing and cropping work.

Your package also breaks down the editing set:

• 15 color corrected full-resolution JPGs
• 6 retouched full-resolution JPGs
• You choose your favorites from the set that is available to view within the 10-day window (in web quality for selection)

If you like having options, you will appreciate this two-step system. You get enough to decide what you love, and you are not stuck waiting the entire month before seeing anything.

There is also a nice practical detail: they keep an electronic copy of the material for one year, in case you lose your downloads.

Price and Value: When $784.42 Makes Sense

The price is listed as $784.42 per group (up to 5) for about 1 hour 15 minutes. On paper, that might sound like a lot until you map it to what is included: a private photographer, an assistant, and a dress delivered and used for your session, plus the structured photo delivery.

Here is how I would judge value:

• If you are a couple or small group where only one woman is doing the dress portion, this can be a strong deal because the package includes the dress for one woman and offers free entry for family and friends.
• If you want two women in dress photos, your cost will rise because you need an additional dress for the second woman (from €100 depending on style). Value becomes more about whether you truly want both people dressed in the same shoot.
• If you have a larger all-women group (3+ women), pricing changes to a group rate and you need to contact for that. The base rate might not be the whole story.

One other signal: this experience is often booked well ahead. The average booking lead time is 54 days. That suggests time slots and dress availability get claimed. If you have a must-have date, I would treat it like dinner reservations, plan early.

Pickup, Meeting Point, and How Not to Lose Time

This is set up to be easy if you plan it a bit. Pickup is offered, and the photographer meets you in the city center close to the best photoshoot spots. They send the exact meeting point in advance.

If you want a simpler start, you can arrange a hotel meeting if you are nearby. If you are coming from farther out, there are optional private transfers for an extra charge. Those listed pickup origins include hotels in other cities, the cable car exit for cruise guests, and the airport.

Timing also matters. The service is listed as operating Monday through Sunday, 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. So you should be able to match your session to your preferred light and your overall day plan.

Also keep in mind this is a private tour. Only your group participates, which usually means less waiting and less time dealing with strangers. That is a quiet quality-of-life upgrade on a busy island.

What Is Not Included, and Why That Matters

A few things are not included, and knowing them up front helps you avoid a last-minute scramble.

Not included:

• Private transportation
• Make up and hair style
• Second and subsequent dresses for all participants
• Cloud, fluffy, or glitter dresses
• Special group rates for 3+ ladies

The big takeaway: this is a photos-first package. It covers the photographer, the dress included for one woman, and the assistant support. If you want glam hair and makeup, you will need to handle that separately.

And if your dream is a glittery or fluffy dress, check the catalog fit early. The package excludes those types, so you may need to adjust your vision or pay for a different dress option depending on what is allowed in their selection process.

Who This Photoshoot Is Best For

This works best if you want a private, guided experience and you like having someone handle the hard parts. It is a smart match if:

• You want standout photos without spending your day running around looking for angles.
• You like the idea of dress flying but do not want to deal with dress logistics yourself.
• You have a tight schedule in Santorini and want a single focused block of time.

It also makes sense for anniversaries, proposals, birthdays, or just the fun of dressing up for an island day. Family and friends can join for free, so you can keep the energy light, even if the dress portion is just one person.

If you are traveling with multiple women who all want to be in dresses, the extra dress rules are your main consideration. Plan for that cost so the day stays stress-free.

Should You Book This Private Flying Dress Photoshoot?

I would book it if you want a planned, guided photo session that reduces decision fatigue. The combination of a private shoot, an assistant on hand, a dress included for one woman, and a clear editing timeline makes it feel dependable.

I would think twice if you are expecting more flexibility than the package allows, especially around dress types and sharing. If two women want dress photos, you need to budget for additional dresses. And if you are booking around a time when weather is uncertain, keep your schedule flexible, since poor conditions can trigger a change or refund.

If your main goal is great photos with minimal hassle, this is a strong choice. If your goal is a DIY style shoot where you control every variable, you might prefer a different setup.
