Commissions
Five services, often booked together on one shoot day.
Photography
Exteriors, interiors and details for sales listings, charter brochures, launches and press. Shot from a chase boat, on deck and on board, timed to the best light of the day.
Drone & helicopter
I’m a certified drone pilot. Aerials show what no deck shot can: the yacht’s lines, its wake and where it sits in the landscape. Helicopter shoots are available for larger productions.
Film
Video of the yacht inside and out, for sales listings, charter marketing and social media. Shot on board and from the water, then edited and delivered ready to publish.
Interactive
A walk-through of every deck and cabin, so buyers and charter guests can view the yacht from anywhere before they fly in.
Above & below the surface
Split-level shots that show the yacht on the surface and the clear water beneath her, plus underwater images of hull, toys and swimmers. Shot by a CMAS diving instructor.
Process
You send the yacht, location, dates and how the images will be used.
I plan the light, the weather window, the chase boat and crew positions, and send a quote within a few hours.
On board, from the water and from the air, with minimal disruption to crew and guests.

Also available: time-lapse and shipyard and marina reportage.
Brokers & yacht managers
A magnificent yacht photographer that captured all our mega yachts ranging from 70–86 m in the West Med. He owns a boat himself, so he managed to portray the yachting mentality from A to Z.
Eleftheria KoudigkeliYacht Manager, Royalton InvestmentAthensThe result of his work has been always stunning. He’s a really excellent yacht photographer, his yachting experience makes working with him a pleasure!
Sebastiano PitasiHead of Sales, Engel & Völkers YachtingMonacoOn the yacht’s length and the services you need: photography, aerials, video, a 360° tour or underwater. Send the yacht, the location, your dates and how the images will be used, and you’ll have a proposal within a few hours.
The yacht’s name and length, where she’ll be, your dates and how the images will be used: sale, charter, launch or press. From there I plan the light, the weather window, the chase boat and crew positions.
Yes. They’re often booked together on one shoot day, which saves time on board and keeps the look consistent across every format.
I plan every shoot around the forecast and the best light, and agree the timing with you and the captain, so the yacht is photographed when sea and sky are at their best.
Very little. I work alone, without assistants, and plan the day around guests and crew. On yachts over 80 metres, with the owners on board, they hardly noticed I was there.
I’m a certified drone pilot and every flight is planned around local rules and marina regulations. Where drones can’t fly, a helicopter shoot is an option for larger productions.
Yes. I’m based in Genoa, Italy, and travel worldwide for launches, sea trials, boat shows and charter-season shoots.
