In the event of rain, the tour will continue as scheduled, but your photographers have got some tricks to keep you dry including some undercover locations. We highly recommend brining an umbrella to ensure you can also get some open-air photos! We can also take shelter in an elegant local café to capture some lifestyle moments.
Can I choose when and where to be photographed?Although we’ve already chosen a fruitful itinerary full of photo ops, we’ll be happy to alter it to fit your needs.

The itinerary
Your photo shoot sets off at the Rialto Bridge, a prime meeting point for Venice where you’ll feel the pulse of the city. Its iconic white marble single arc serves as a classical backdrop for your first set of Venetian mementos. You’ll continue your exploration of the bustling Rialto area with its local market, which displays vibrant colors of fresh fruit, vegetables and fish of all kinds. Walking along the Grand Canal with your expert photographer, you’ll get pictures against the backdrops of glamorous waterfront mansions, where pale pink or creamy yellow facades are decorated with pointy, eastern style arches arranged in perfectly symmetrical patterns, all reflected on the shimmering water of the canal.
Leaving the tourist crowds you’ll continue your adventure deeper into the heart of the San Polo district. You’ll get a taste of the authentic Venetian life in the locals’ eyes, discovering the unnamed narrow calli (alleys) and quiet campi (squares) along the complex web of secondary canals. You’ll get a chance to pose on charming little bridges with gondolas passing behind. Winding your way towards the Dorsoduro district, your photo journey will culminate on the Accademia Bridge over the last loop of the Grand Canal before it joins the basin of Saint Mark. Behind you is one last breathtaking panorama marked by the elegant dome of Santa Maria della Salute on the horizon.
At Localers, we work with an elite team of professional photographers, hand-picked for their rich experience, excellent photography skills, and insider knowledge of the city. All local to Venice, they’ll take you to the city’s most picture-perfect spots and capture your best angles against the magic light and color effects that the city on water is proud of. You’re ensured to leave Venice with the perfect memento of your trip with family, friends or solo.
