Filippo is fantastic!
Filippo is a fantastic photographer! We had the best time on our photoshoot with him! He is so kind and helped our family feel at ease during the shoot. We now have beautiful photos of our time in Venice. We highly, highly recommend Filippo!

THIS is the move!
We did a food tour in Venice and some other things, but this photo shoot was the highlight of our Venice trip! We got some great pictures out of it. There were a couple of surprising things. 1. It was so much fun! He tells you to pose in some crazy ways to get some good pictures and we just kept laughing it was just fun. 2. Venice is really crowded, but he managed to turn a corner find an alley find a spot where people just didn't know about the crowds were gone mysteriously. 3. He was quite knowledgeable about the city and just a friendly guy to talk to you, we enjoyed just hanging out with him for a little while.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much Jeff for your kind words :)

Wedding photoshoot
Filippo is absolutely great and highly professional! He helps a lot with posing and makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. It was quite quick to have the pictures back and we had more edited photo's provided than claimed in the package. He's punctual as well and his English is fantastic. The quality of the pictures is superb. Thank you Filippo!
Response from the operator: Thank you Anna! :)

Highly recommend Filippo!!
Filippo was a fantastic photographer, and the entire experience was amazing. He was personable, patient, and made me feel comfortable throughout the shoot. He also knew all the best locations and helped everything feel natural and fun. The photos turned out beautifully, and it was such a great way to capture my 21st birthday in Venice. I highly recommend booking with him!
Response from the operator: Thank you Ellen! It was a pleasure working with you :)

Terrible Experience (strung along for nearly 2 hours waiting for Filippo)
Filippo did not show up because there was a small chance of rain. We went in July, and there is always a chance in the morning. What’s worse, he strung us along for 2 hours while we waited for him. Shortly, before our appointment, he said he would be 30 min late. We were there on time. We waited. Then, he pushed to 1 hour and 15 min. We waited, hoping for family photos with our two boys. Then, he pushed to 1 and 45 min. And told us he had not even arrived in Venice because he was worried any rain would damage his camera. So, unprofessional. And Non-responsive to our check-ins while we waited. Meanwhile, we were waiting at the meeting location. There was only rain for 5 min during the entire 1 hour and 45 minutes we waited for Filippo. We took amazing photos with our iPhones while we were waiting. Hardly any rain. You don’t need a photographer and certainly not one that would do this to you. Afterward Filippo sent me a message and took no accountability for having a family of four dressed up for photos and having us wait for him for two hours.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience. First of all, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the delays. I completely understand how frustrating it must have been for your family to be ready for the session and to wait longer than expected. The decision to postpone was never because I didn’t want to work. It was based on two factors: protecting professional equipment from heavy rain and, more importantly, ensuring I could deliver the quality of work my clients expect. My goal has always been to create images that are worth the investment, rather than simply taking photos under unsuitable conditions. Regarding your comment about taking great photos with your iPhone, I’m genuinely pleased that you were able to capture beautiful family memories. However, professional photography is not defined by the camera alone. Clients choose a professional photographer for creative direction, knowledge of light, composition, posing, professional editing, and a consistent artistic vision that goes beyond what a phone can typically provide. Looking back, I recognize that I should have communicated more clearly and made a final decision sooner instead of continuing to postpone the meeting as the weather remained uncertain. For that, I take full responsibility. Although we clearly have different perspectives on what happened that morning, I genuinely wish you and your family all the best and appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems cost?
+
Prices start at $99 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 136 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems?
+
Around 48 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cinematic Photoshoot in Venice: Capture Venice Hidden Gems start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine in Venice, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Venice Bacaro Food Tour: Eat and Drink like a Venetian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
