Book a Studio Portrait Session
in Capri

Professional photoshoots in Capri start from €279. A typical one- to two-hour session runs roughly €279–€450, depending on duration and the number of edited photos — from a short shoot at the Giardini di Augusto to a longer route that adds the Piazzetta and the whitewashed lanes of Anacapri.

The Giardini di Augusto above the hairpins of Via Krupp, the Belvedere di Tragara looking straight down on the Faraglioni, the Piazzetta with its café awnings, the whitewashed lanes and pergolas of Anacapri, Villa San Michele's sphinx terrace, and the little harbour at Marina Piccola for the water frames.

Before the day boats arrive from Naples and Sorrento, which is roughly the first two hours after the island wakes. The light bouncing off the sea is strong enough that a midday session genuinely works here, and evenings are quiet again once the last hydrofoils leave. May, June and September are the sweet spot; in winter many hotels, restaurants and boat services close.

The funicular climbs from Marina Grande to the Piazzetta in three minutes and queues badly between ten and four; open taxis and the Anacapri bus cover the rest, and everything else is walked. Boats round the Faraglioni leave from both marinas and take about an hour, which is the only way to get the rock arch in frame. Check timetables, as both run reduced services in winter.

It depends on the photographer. Many studio photographers run their own space and include it in the session fee — check the package description on their profile. Others book a third-party studio per session and pass the cost through (typically €40–€100 depending on city and studio size). For clarity, the price shown on Photo Italy includes everything unless the photographer's profile says otherwise. If you're unsure, message the photographer before booking — they'll confirm whether studio rental is bundled.

Most 60-minute studio sessions include 2–3 outfit changes; 90-minute sessions allow 3–4. Studios have changing areas, mirrors, and full-length lighting for outfit checks. Bring outfits on hangers (less wrinkled) and shoes that match — feet often appear in editorial-style shots. For headshots specifically, one neutral top + one professional/business top is enough; for personal branding or editorial, more variety helps. Your photographer will guide which outfits photograph best against the chosen backdrop.
