The cost of renting a boat on Lake Como depends mainly on the type and size of the boat. Prices for small private vintage boats and elegant speedboats start from around €350–€400 per hour.
You can also book a larger boat, which is a great option if you’re traveling with more people, such as family or a group of friends.
When it comes to photography, professional engagement photoshoots start from €500. If you decide to book a photoshoot, I’ll be happy to help you choose the package that best suits your plans and needs.


The best time of year for a boat photoshoot on Lake Como is from April to October. During these months, you’ll have the widest choice of available boats and a better chance of enjoying favorable weather.
It’s also worth considering the time of day for your photoshoot. If possible, I recommend choosing the golden hour for that beautiful, warm, romantic light. However, from my own experience, even midday photoshoots on a boat can turn out absolutely spectacular!

"My favorite photoshoot! Thank you so much for capturing this special moment in our lives! We will be back one day and you will have to photograph our family!"
"We absolutely love the photos! We’re so happy with how they turned out. Thank you so much for being part of such a special moment for us. You made us feel comfortable and the results are amazing. We appreciate your dedication."
We have now looked at the pictures and are so amazed by your work. Thank you so much for capturing our engagement so beautifully!

In fact, boats depart from almost every town around Lake Como. I highly recommend booking a private cruise directly from the town where you’re staying — it’s the most convenient option and allows you to make the most of your time on the lake.
When it comes to the best areas to explore by boat, I especially recommend Tremezzo and Lenno. During your cruise, you can admire some of the most beautiful villas on Lake Como, including Villa Balbianello and Villa La Cassinella.
Boat cruises typically start from one hour, which is a standard and sufficient amount of time for an engagement photoshoot.
Longer, multi-hour cruises are also available, and I highly recommend them if you’d like to celebrate your special day with your loved ones while exploring the beautiful surroundings of Lake Como.
Yes, it’s best to book your boat 2–3 months in advance. During the high season — especially July, August, and September — I recommend booking even earlier to make sure your preferred boat is available on your chosen date.
Of course, it’s possible to book a boat just a few days before your photoshoot, but from my own experience, I wouldn’t recommend it — it’s quite a big risk, especially during the busy summer months.
In the case of photo shoots for couples, engagement shoots and individual shoots, I will show you the first
results of my work within two days of taking the photos.
This is a preliminary selection with a watermark and in a form that allows for easy viewing and selection of
works. Only after the selection do I carry out the final editorial, which is consistent with the nature of the
session.
For weddings, elopements and larger events, it takes up to 14 days to deliver the photo preview.
Suitable and well-thought-out styling is an important element of successful photos. Especially for my clients, I
have prepared a free e-book in PDF format, in which you will find practical tips on how to prepare for a session and what outfit to choose.
You will receive the e-book after booking a photo session. It is free and will certainly make it easier for you to
prepare for the photos.
Below there are three ways to get to Lago di Braies:
Bus route 442 (from Dobbiaco and Villabassa) - be sure to check the timetable.
By car – it’s best, especially during the high season, to book a paid parking space online in advance.
On foot if you’re staying at the Hotel Lago di Braies. Some of my clients chose this option, which allowed them to prepare for their photo shoot comfortably and with plenty of time to get ready.
Yes! I collaborate with the videographers, and there are plenty of talented people in the Dolomites who specialise in filming. I’d be happy to help you choose one or put you in touch with local wedding filmmakers who will capture your special day in the most beautiful way possible.
