Book a Honeymoon Photoshoot
in Assisi

Many couples book their photoshoot for the second or third day of their honeymoon, once they've settled in, recovered from jet lag, and explored the area a bit. This timing also gives you a weather buffer — if rain is forecast for day two, you can easily shift to day three or four. Evening golden hour sessions are the most popular for honeymooners, typically starting 1-2 hours before sunset for the warmest, most romantic light. If your honeymoon involves multiple cities (a common Italy itinerary is Rome, Siena, then the Amalfi Coast or Florence), consider booking a session in the city that excites you most visually. Photo Italy makes it easy to book — simply choose your preferred date and time during checkout and your photographer will confirm within 24 hours.

Most honeymoon packages on Photo Italy include 60-120 minutes of professional photography, 50-100+ individually edited high-resolution photos delivered digitally to your own private online gallery, and a pre-shoot consultation to plan locations, timing, and styling. Photos are typically delivered within 1-3 weeks, with many photographers offering expedited delivery or a sneak peek of 5-10 images within 48 hours. Some photographers offer premium add-ons like handcrafted photo books, fine-art prints, or even a short cinematic video clip. All images come with full personal-use digital rights so you can print, share, and post freely. Delivery timelines and specific inclusions are clearly displayed on each photographer's package page on Photo Italy.

Absolutely — props add a personal and celebratory touch that elevates honeymoon photos beautifully. Popular choices include a bottle of champagne or Italian sparkling wine, a fresh flower bouquet (available at most local markets for €10-20), 'Just Married' signs, picnic setups with a blanket and pastries, or even your wedding veil for a creative callback. Some photographers can arrange a styled picnic setup as an add-on, complete with flowers, fruit, and glassware — perfect for a Val d'Orcia vineyard or Amalfi Coast beach session. Keep props simple and meaningful; one or two items are usually enough to add personality without feeling staged. Your Photo Italy photographer will advise on what works best for your chosen location and can suggest local shops for last-minute prop purchases.

Photoshoots in Assisi start from €319, with one- and two-hour packages running roughly €319 to €450 depending on the length and the number of edited photos. The town is steep but short: an hour covers the basilica piazza, Piazza del Comune and one of the lanes between them, and a second hour buys the Rocca or the olive terraces.

The arcaded piazza in front of the Basilica of San Francesco, at its emptiest just after sunrise; Piazza del Comune with the six Roman columns of the Temple of Minerva; the steep geranium-lined lanes climbing towards the Rocca Maggiore and its view over the valley; and the olive terraces below the walls, which give a quiet green foreground nobody else is using.

The town faces west-southwest, so late afternoon and sunset are the strong hours: the limestone goes from cream to pink and the plain below fills with haze. Sunrise is the quiet hour rather than the pretty one, which is exactly when to shoot the basilica piazza. Late spring and September give the softest light; July and August are hot and hard by ten.
