Florence Photographer for a Candid Photoshoot on a Walk
A candid photoshoot on a walk in Florence: a proposal, an engagement or couple session, or the whole family. We pick the route together, you walk and talk, I make the pictures.
A Florence photoshoot at walking pace
Florence gets photographed from the same handful of spots, shoulder to shoulder with a crowd. What I offer as a Florence photographer is a walk instead. We choose the route together, or I suggest a few and you pick, and the photographs happen along the way: while you cross a bridge, stop for a coffee or argue about which street to take next.
Planning a proposal? The walk is the cover story: one of you knows the plan, I'm already in position, and the pictures start before the question. For an engagement or couple session, and for families, the approach is the same candid photography: no posing, no script. I photograph what actually happens between the two of you, or across the whole family, and the less you think about the camera the better the pictures get.
You receive a set of individually edited, high-resolution photographs. The price depends on how long we walk and how many of you there are, so tell me both and I'll send a quote.
Two ways to book a photoshoot in Florence
A couple or proposal photoshoot on foot in Florence
We meet in Florence and walk. You may already have a place in mind, and we start there. Otherwise I suggest a few routes with good light and fewer people, and you choose. If you'd rather have trees than streets, the Medici park at Pratolino, just north of the city, works too. Proposals, engagement and couple sessions, families, solo travellers.
Add it to a day on the trail
Booking one of my private hikes from Florence? I bring the camera along with the guiding kit and photograph you through the day, and the set you receive covers the whole walk.
What arrives after the walk
- Shot on a professional cameraThe depth and detail a phone can't give you.
- Edited one by one in LightroomEvery selected frame processed for colour, light and the mood of the moment.
- High-resolution JPEGs, ready to printYours to share or put on the wall.
- A proposal, if that's the planSay so in the booking note. The walk is the cover story, and I'm in position before the moment comes.
Stefano Gabryel
Professional photographer and hiking guide, based between Florence and Lucca, in Tuscany, Italy. I photograph couples and families on walks, and I guide private hikes within reach of Florence, so I know where the light is and where the crowds aren't. The camera comes out when something real happens, and it stays out of the way the rest of the time. If you'd rather be photographed in the hills than in the city, the Tuscany photoshoot is the same approach on a trail.
