I wish I could give this negative stars. I was so excited to have my daughter receive her annual photos while we were vacationing in Milan. I was able to book the experience with the best time slot for the light. Unfortunately, the photographer was a no show. I called and messaged with no response. I had my friend who lives in Milan try calling him with no response. I contacted Viator and they were also unsuccessful at contacting Davide. Don’t book this experience if you’re set on having photos in Milan. I booked this one for the positive reviews and assumed we would have beautiful photos of our 9-year-old next to Il Duomo and chasing all the pigeons. Now, all we have are the crappy ones I took myself and I’m no photographer. This was extremely disappointing! It’s unfortunate I don’t have time to book with someone else.

Itinerary
I will photograph you at Milan’s top tourist attractions: we will start at the Duomo, then continue to Galleria Vittorio Emanuele and towards Castello Sforzesco, passing through Via Cordusio and Via Dante. We will spend one hour shooting in Milan’s iconic streets plus some lesser‑known but equally characteristic corners. Within two business days, I will edit and send the photos via email, WeTransfer, or phone. You can select up to 10 images for detailed retouching in Adobe Lightroom, and these edited photos will be delivered in the same way within one week of your selection. If I am unavailable, one of my long‑standing collaborators will take care of the session, ensuring the same high‑quality service and results.

I can't say enough good things about my photographer, Irene! From the moment we met, she was so kind and put me completely at ease. Her direction on posing was incredibly helpful. She knew exactly how to guide me to look natural and confident. When the weather turned rainy, she didn't miss a beat. Instead, she adapted our plans and turned what could've been a disaster into something magical. The photos are stunning, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're in Milan and need a photographer, book Irene immediately!
Irene did an amazing job from beginning to end! She was incredibly responsive before the photo shoot and led with kindness, personability, and sheer professionalism throughout. Irene was diligent about capturing specific shots with beautiful, prestigious backgrounds, and it was clear that she takes a lot of pride in the work she produces. She went above and beyond by combining my session with my friend’s, who had booked just before me, showing great patience and adaptability. As someone visiting from America who doesn’t speak Italian, I was so grateful that Irene was able to handle bystanders’ comments with ease—translating when needed and keeping the experience smooth and enjoyable. On the day of our shoot, it rained on and off, yet Irene managed the time perfectly. She maximized every break in the rain to ensure we got all the shots we needed. Her efficiency, eye for detail, and clear direction for poses made me feel confident, and I appreciated her honesty if something didn’t quite look right, so no time was wasted. Every single photo turned out terrific—if there was an issue, it was only because of a funny face or silly pose I made myself! Irene is truly a top-notch professional. If I ever return to Milan, I will request her directly. Without hesitation, I give her a 10/10—highly recommend booking her!
I had a fantastic experience working with Davide during my vacation! The photos turned out beautifully and truly captured the spirit of the trip. He was incredibly friendly and made me feel at ease throughout the shoot. He was also very responsive and helpful from the start, answering questions quickly and clearly, in addition to his local knowledge—he even gave me some amazing dining recommendations that ended up being highlights of my trip. Highly recommend!
Love it! 🥰 I’d like to thank Davide for the beautiful photos — the lighting was amazing, and every shot was truly impressive. David was very friendly and helped guide me with poses to make the pictures look professional and stunning. I’m truly grateful for these memorable photos from my trip to Milan.
Davide was so kind and patient with us! He took us to multiple places that were a short walk to have a variety of backgrounds and gave us different poses. I love these pictures and absolutely recommend anyone books this photoshoot with Davide.
I’m very happy that I booked for this photoshoot. The pictures are amazing, great resolution and I love every picture. Thanks.
Luca was an outstanding family photographer during our time in Milan! His warm personality and keen eye for detail made every moment feel special. He effortlessly captured the essence of our trip, from candid laughter in the bustling piazzas to serene family portraits against the stunning backdrop of the Duomo. Luca’s creative direction helped us feel comfortable and relaxed, resulting in beautiful, authentic images that we’ll treasure forever. His passion for Milan shone through, making the experience not only memorable but also truly enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!
Davide was excellent to work with, he was communicative and efficient. Very helpful in guiding with “poses”. I absolutely loved the photos! This was the first time I did photo shoot while traveling, and I highly recommend it!
Davide’s shot are amazing, he knows the exact location and photo angle to take. I definitely recommend him, my friends on social media love these photos too.
We had a wonderful experience with Xavier. He was patient and had us feeling comfortable during the shoot. We felt we were being cared for by a true professional. The quality of the photographs are excellent, and I recommend this service to any couple who wishes to capture their love on film in the heart of Milan. I almost booked a different photoshoot experience that had a lower cost, but ultimately decided to book with Davide and Xavier because of the five star reviews associated with their services. I’m so glad we chose Davide and Xavier.
Xavier had a great artistic eye and ultimately got some epic shots. Definitely recommend if you want a good quality photo of yourself in the heart of Milan!
Davide was absolutely amazing to work with. He was very patient and spent a lot of time with our family in various locations and captured beautiful family portraits of ours. It was us and our 3 kids 9,7,4 and he was really sweet with them and so very patient and didn’t rush us at all! He spent well more than the alloted time and ended the session only once we felt we had our fill of taking the pictures! He made sure to ask if we had any ideas or poses we wanted to capture and gave his ideas as well! He took us to beautiful spots around Duomo and was also very helpful in providing local recommendations et all! We had an amazing time working with him!
Davide was amazing. He captured every moment for us. My daughter’s 18th Birthday photo shoot in Milan was memorable thanks to him! We will have everlasting pictures in Milan. He was professional and accommodating in every way. I highly recommend him. Thank you Davide!
