We had an incredible experience with Shaqayeq during our family photo session in Santorini. She was warm, friendly, and immediately made my two daughters and me feel comfortable in front of the camera. She gave clear direction for posing without making anything feel forced, and the entire session was relaxed and enjoyable.
What really set the experience apart was her knowledge of the island. She knew the best locations, the ideal timing, and how to take advantage of the lighting, and she had access to stunning private viewpoints that made our photos truly special. She captured the iconic Santorini scenery we had dreamed of while also preserving genuine moments between the three of us.
The final photos exceeded our expectations and are memories we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for beautiful, professional photos in Santorini, I highly recommend Shaqayeq.

If you're planning a couples photoshoot in Oia, do yourself a favor and book Shaqayeq. She captured incredible photos while expertly navigating one of the busiest spots in Santorini, making every minute count and even getting us access to locations that weren't available to everyone else. Her communication before and during the shoot was excellent, and she made the entire experience feel effortless. If you want professional photos without spending hours standing in line for the same shots as everyone else, hiring a photographer is absolutely worth it—and Shaqayeq was outstanding. We couldn't be happier with both the experience and the final photos.

Great experience. Shaqa and her assistant were great with communication and very efficient. “Skip the line “ it is a great description for this photo shoot. She was able to take us to many different backdrops including the infamous blue domes, without waiting in line. Can’t wait to see our photos!
Casey_T, Jul 2026
Shaqayeq was our photographer and she did a great job! Everything went smoothly, especially since we had our kids involved in the photos she made it so easy and comfortable.

We had a wonderful experience with Farhang in Santorini!
She was very attentive and responsive before and after the photoshoot, making the whole process easy and stress-free. She arrived right on time and guided us through the crowds in Oia to several beautiful hidden spots we would have never found on our own.
Farhang made us feel comfortable the entire time, which was especially helpful since posing does not come naturally to me. LOL. She gave great direction and made the session fun and relaxed.
The photos turned out beautiful, and I was pleasantly surprised that 30 edited photos were already included in the price. The turnaround time was also very fast.
Professional, personable, and talented — I highly recommend Farhang if you want beautiful Santorini photos and a great experience.

Great experience! Shaqayeq was on time, very friendly, and gave easy, natural posing instructions. It was absolutely worth every penny.. not having to wait in long lines at the popular scenic spots made the experience even better. Highly recommend!
Marian_B, Jun 2026
one of the best experiences with a photographer. Ms. Shaqayeq had a lot of ideas for great pictures and is very personable.

Shaqayeq Farhang is an amazing photographer. Our family has not had photos done in several years and she was able to take many amazing photographs in a very short period of time. She knew all of the best places to go for the best backgrounds. We were able to take our family photos and not take much time away from our vacation. I would highly recommend Shaqayeq.
Alyssa_A, May 2026
I booked a photo session and had a positive experience. From the beginning, communication was smooth and quick. During the session, she made us feel comfortable and gave direction on poses. The final photos turned out great and I would highly recommend her as a photographer when visiting the island.
Ashish_S, Apr 2026
Excellent photographer very patient. Took lots of pictures was great with the kids. Rates are very reasonable
Elizabeth_M, Mar 2026
We had an excellent experience from start to finish! The photographer is very professional and kind! She knows the best spots for photographs in Santorini and helped us get the best poses down. We are extremely happy with our photos and she had an option to buy more photos than the preset 25 which we happily paid for more photos because we simply could not choose only 25. The whole experience was great because I usually am stressed the entire trip about getting “the perfect photo” of my husband and I, asking strangers to take photos etc. having this experience booked, I was able to relax on our trip more knowing we had photos scheduled with a professional! I highly recommend this experience! We will look back at these photos for years to come!

Sara_W, Dec 2025

Jaclyn_A, Nov 2025
Had such a beautiful photo shoot experience with Shaqa. She is truly a professional and talented photographer, who captured such amazing images.You can tell she really knew which background settings worked well with the weather, during the time we had our shoot. Shaqa was very kind and made my girls and I feel so comfortable and assisted us with our poses.
Thank you Shaqa, for a memorable experience that we will treasure forever.

Did not show up or communicate that not showing up to our booking. Very disappointing, this was our anniversary trip.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m truly sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Unfortunately, I lost my phone that morning and was unable to access any messages or contacts. As soon as I found it, I reached out immediately to explain the situation and offer you a full refund, along with a new appointment to make up for the trouble. You accepted the new date but later cancelled again, which I fully respected.
I always aim to provide a reliable and enjoyable experience for my clients, and I’m genuinely sorry this unexpected situation affected your plans. I wish you both all the best and many happy anniversaries ahead.
Shiva_H, Nov 2025
I had the most incredible photoshoot experience in Oia! Shaqayeq (the photographer) is truly an artist — she knew exactly which poses and angles would capture the best light and scenery. Her creativity and local knowledge made all the difference; every shot came out stunning and perfectly framed against the Santorini backdrop. She made me feel completely comfortable and confident throughout the session, and the final photos exceeded all my expectations. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Oia — it’s the best souvenir you could take home!
Laurie_R, Sep 2025
I would highly recommend! The photographer helped us to be able to enjoy our day without constantly trying to capture the perfect picture!! She knew the best spots for photos and it took just a few minutes out of our day! She was so professional and yet personable!
Corey_B, Sep 2025
Our pictures turned out perfect! Our photographer was so kind and efficient with our time to get lots of poses in at each location. We got to choose which 25 photos we wanted and had the option of purchasing more. Photos were taken in an area with only professional photographers so only one other group was around. We did 5 pm and did not have to wear sunglasses, but later times would be even better!
Kerri_M, Aug 2025
We had such an amazing experience during our Santorini photoshoot. The photographer was knowledgeable and professional. We had a chance to see the beautiful views from private locations and avoid crowds. I would highly recommend.
Arya_P, Aug 2025
Our photographer was amazing. She got us access to private sections for photo taking. It was 100% worth it!

Brian_B, Jun 2025
Absolutely amazing! We got to go to places we wouldn't have been able to get to otherwise and it was so awesome to skip lines and get to areas that weren't crowded. The pictures turned out great too!
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Thank you so much! I’m really glad you had a great time. It was lovely meeting you, and I’m honored I could be part of your beautiful memories.
Josie_C, May 2025
Shaqa took us to post card-esque locations, places we ourselves probably could not find in the short amount of time we were there. She was friendly and has a good eye. The photos turned out beautiful. Aside from the included 25 photos, we had the option to buy additional for a cost or buy the bulk amount. I’m so glad we did this!

Ami_P, Apr 2025
We had a wonderful photo shoot experience with Shaqayeq. She was fantastic and communicated with us in advance, let us know we had picked the wrong time for photo shoot (when the light would be gone) and offered to switch to an earlier time which we gladly accepted. She took several solo and group photos of my family in different spots in Oia and the results were fantastic. I plan to frame some of them. I recommend her highly!
