Photos by Venice photographer Pietro. Capturing your Venice vacation through a local lens.
Couples, individuals, or families—you’re all welcome. But I’ve got a soft spot for couples in love. Imagine strolling through Venice, winding along quiet canals, getting lost in narrow alleys. Rather than just snapshots in touristy spots, these sessions are about making memories—romantic, fun, spontaneous, and real.
I’m Pietro Volpato, born and raised here, working professionally as a photographer in Venice since 2011. My goal? To give you much more than a standard photo shoot. It’s a chance to discover Venice in a genuine way, often off the beaten path, with someone who knows the city’s secrets. If you want, we’ll include a gondola ride—gondoliers I’ve picked myself over years, so the ride is smooth and the vibe just right.
A Session Built for Connection
For couples, the shoot is a fun mix of candid moments and romantic portraits. I’ll encourage you to forget about the camera; Venice makes the romance, I just capture it. Whether you’re walking hand in hand, laughing together, or just enjoying a quiet moment—those are the shots that feel real.
Individuals get to explore Venice too. If you’re wanting solo portraits, or travel photography with personality, this is for you. We’ll find spots that suit your style, quiet corners, views that feel yours.
Families are absolutely welcome. Kids, grandparents, whoever—this is about capturing your story together: playful, spontaneous, heartfelt. We’ll move at your pace, have fun, and I’ll make sure everyone’s comfortable.
What Makes It More Than Just a Photoshoot
- You’ll see Venice, not just the postcard spots but hidden alleys and views many tourists miss.
- A professional photoshoot means good gear, good light, and someone who knows how to make you feel at ease.
- Add a gondola ride if you like—it’s classic Venice, romantic, timeless.
- The focus is on having fun: laughter, movement, moments that don’t feel posed.
Why Choose This Experience
Because vacations are short, and memories should be great. When you look back at your photos, I want you to feel like you were there—not just posed, but alive, enjoying Venice. Whether you are saying “I do,” traveling alone, or bringing the whole family, this vacation photography is meant to be unforgettable.
Customer Review
Esther & Daniel:
“We had an amazing photography session with the photographer Pietro in Venice. He is definitely our go to photographer the next vacation in Venice. He was timely, professional, and was really a perfect addition to our vacation. I’m glad we decided to book with him. The photos we received were beautiful and high quality. But the best part of the photo shoot with Pietro was the actual tour part of the experience. We were able to see parts of Venice we wouldn’t have made it to without him.”
