Glide past the grandest stages Venice has to offer, San Marco, La Salute, the Grand Canal, and let me capture your story from the water.
Venice looks different from the water. The basilicas, the palaces, the bridges, everything you've seen in photographs suddenly becomes the backdrop to your story.
A private water taxi takes you where the crowds can't follow. No narrow calli, no tourists in the background. Just you, the open lagoon, and the most cinematic city in the world surrounding you at every turn.
This is not a standard photo shoot. This is a private, curated experience, designed from the first brushstroke of make-up to the last golden reflection on the water.

A 30% deposit is required to secure your date. The remaining balance is due 48 hours before your session.
All bookings are confirmed upon receipt of the deposit. Your date is not reserved until payment is received. Cancellations made more than 7 days before the session will receive a full refund of the deposit.
I'm introducing the Gran Tour as a new experience, and I want the first clients to live it at a special price, before it becomes what it's meant to be: one of Venice's most sought-after photography experiences.
Available for the first 10 sessions only. After that, the price moves to €1,150.
If you've been thinking about it, now is the moment.
I was a little hesitant when I booked this package of 50 photos. However, I received a message from my photographer Cecilia within 15 minutes of booking with a photo of her and the time and meeting place agreed on Get Your Guide. Cecilia was kind to meet us and put us at ease from the beginning of our photo shoot. Cecilia was very patient with us and directed our photo shoot as requested. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and highly recommended Then the photos arrived and wow, these are really beautiful photos and wonderful memories of Venice.
Kevin Bleisoe Gran Canal PremiumCecilia did a fantastic job with our wedding photos, and she saved the day when we realized last minute that all the water taxis closed and we could not use our planned spot. It could not have gone better, all thanks to Cecilia's quick thinking. And also, the photos were excellent! Cecilia knew just where to go for the good shots! 7 Days Ago

I don’t just document your time in Venice, I become part of your story.
Venice is my home. I know where the light falls at golden hour, which canals catch the best reflections, and exactly where to position you against the Basilica della Salute for a shot that takes your breath away. This isn’t a tour. It’s my city, shared with you.
The water taxi is my studio. While others photograph Venice from the calli, I work from the water, where the real magic happens. Open skies, iconic facades, and light that shifts with every bend of the Grand Canal.
You arrive camera-ready. The make-up session isn’t an afterthought, it’s part of the experience. You step onto the taxi feeling confident, relaxed, and completely yourself. That’s when the best photos happen.
Natural direction, never forced poses. I guide you gently through every moment, a glance here, a laugh there, so your photos feel alive, not staged. You’ll barely notice the camera.
Fine Art editing, every time. Every image is post-produced with care and intention, preserving the atmosphere, the colour, and the emotion of your session on the water.
Discreet, professional, and fully dedicated. For the entire 2.5 hours, my only focus is you. No distractions, no shortcuts, just the best possible version of your Venice story.
