Book a Wedding Photoshoot
in Sardinia

For peak wedding season (May through October), we strongly recommend booking 6-12 months in advance, especially for Saturday weddings at popular venues. Italy's top wedding photographers often have their prime summer dates booked a full year ahead, particularly in sought-after regions like the Amalfi Coast, Siena, and Val d'Orcia. For off-season weddings (November through April), you'll have more flexibility and may find availability with 2-3 months notice. Weekday weddings also tend to have better photographer availability year-round. When you find a photographer you love on Photo Italy, secure your date with a deposit to lock in their availability — the earlier you book, the wider your selection of top-rated professionals.

Most destination wedding couples book 8-12 hours of photography coverage, which captures the complete story from getting-ready preparations through the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, first dance, and party. For more intimate weddings (under 30 guests) or shorter celebrations, 6 hours of coverage may be sufficient to capture all the key moments. Full-day packages of up to 16 hours are available for extended celebrations that start with morning preparations and continue through a late-night party or after-party. When estimating your needs, consider adding a buffer of 1-2 hours beyond what you think you'll need — the candid moments between events are often the most treasured. Your Photo Italy photographer will help you build a realistic photography timeline during your pre-wedding consultation.

Yes — Photo Italy photographers cover weddings across the entire country, from the northern Lake Como region to the southern Amalfi Coast, and even the islands of Sicily and Sardinia. Travel within the photographer's home region (typically a 50-80km radius) is included in standard packages at no extra charge. For weddings in other regions — for example, a Rome-based photographer traveling to an Amalfi Coast venue — a small travel fee may apply to cover transport and accommodation. This fee is always shown upfront and transparently in each photographer's package listing, so there are no surprises. Many photographers also offer multi-day packages for destination weddings that include a rehearsal dinner shoot or day-after session, which is especially popular for international couples hosting a wedding weekend in Italy.

Professional photoshoots in Sardinia start from €319. Packages vary by duration and the number of edited photos, from an hour on one Costa Smeralda beach to a longer session across two or three coves. A boat, if you want the coves that can only be reached by sea, is chartered separately — plan it with your photographer in advance.

On the Costa Smeralda: Spiaggia del Principe and Capriccioli for pink granite and clear water, Liscia Ruja for space, and the marina and piazzetta of Porto Cervo for something built rather than natural. The Maddalena archipelago is a boat trip worth a whole day. On the east coast, Cala Goloritzé and the Golfo di Orosei; in the north-west, the sea walls and old town of Alghero, with Capo Caccia at the end of the afternoon.

June and September: the sea is already warm, the light is long, and the beaches are not yet — or no longer — full. In July and August, book sunrise; the famous beaches fill from ten and the midday sun flattens the granite. Late afternoon works everywhere, and the west coast, Alghero included, is where the sun sets over the water.
