We meet outside your hotel, or wherever you prefer. We'll see the most iconic Venice and then the quiet one, where the lives of those of us who live here move slowly. Don't worry about posing: I'll give you simple directions, and after ten minutes it starts to feel natural. Planning to propose? I really know how to help! Ninety minutes, around 45 edited photos. Three hours, around 100, with room for a Venetian costume, a gondola, or simply slowing down. You get your edited photos in five working days, for print and for your phone.
