Sarath is an excellent photographer. He was well prepared for our time in Vernazza and it shows in the photos. They look great. 📍 Vernazza ·
Samuel ★★★★★
Sarath did a wonderful job. He was very sensitive and knew what he was doing. He showed us good poses, while at the same time never being intrusive so we could always do our thing when we wanted. He knew the best places for good pictures and also the best time of the day, even which route to take so we wouldn't be already exhausted after the first few shots. He was super kind and pleasant to be around so we could relax and be more natural in the pictures. They came out absolutely wonderful by the way!! Thanks a lot :) Jake ★★★★★
Sarath was truly so kind and his photography skills are amazing! My fiancé and I took our save the date photos in Riomaggiore Cinque Terre and Sarath was so helpful in ensuring he captured our image and what we wanted while also giving his suggestions and guiding us to different locations to get the most beautiful pictures. The photos came out absolutely beautiful and we could not be happier! 📍 Riomaggiore ·

I want to start off by saying I normally don’t write reviews. But for Sarath, I had to. I booked the 1.5 hour proposal photo shoot in Monterosso. Sarath was absolutely wonderful, couldn’t have been any better. He began working with me months before the special day. Staying in constant communication to make me feel comfortable and confident as a first time traveler to Italy. Leading up to the big moment, he arrived early, to help me test out the backdrop and clear the perfect area. After she said yes, we traveled all around the town and onto the beach, getting so many different pictures. He even stayed past his time to get some specific shots my now-fiancée imagined. Sarath is extremely experienced and not only was his work of the highest standard, but he is also a kind and wonderful person to be around. I highly recommend booking Sarath for your next photo shoot! - Alex, USA 📍 Monterosso ·
Lewis ★★★★★

Sarath was an amazing photographer for our family of 3. He was super patient with our 3 year old and we were very happy with the final result especially the pics overlooking Manarola.

great experience!

For a private photoshoot it is a great deal. I haven’t seen the final photos but he does show you some shots during the shoot and I was happy with what I saw there. He was very accommodating of my schedule and fit me in so I could make my boat tour. As a solo traveler I’m so excited to see the photos in a few days as it’s difficult to get photos of myself. He was good about making me feel comfortable in front of the camera and had great recommendations for locations and poses. Throughout the shoot we had good conversation and he helped me find a super market so that I could get some drinks and snacks before my bout tour. Overall a great day. United States ·

Well first off, I just want to say that Sarath is a professional at his job in every aspect. He was punctual, sweet, knowledgeable of the area, thoughtful, caring and made our gender reveal truly magical. He captured amazing photos in Riomaggiore(we decided to stay there for the duration since my girlfriend was pregnant) but we got a lot of variety and different scenery. He always made sure to ask of our input as we were taking the photos to make sure we were both happy. We even sent him ideas before hand and he incorporated them within the photo shoot. Overall, very wonderful experience with a wonderful person. You get your moneys worth and even more! 📍 Riomaggiore ·

This was an incredible experience for our family in Manarola. Sarath went above and beyond to capture our family photos. He adapted to our family as we had both people in their 70s and a 2 year old. Slowed the pace and was incredibly flexible with us when we had to pause the photo shoot to go get our luggage. He lead us to a playground when the kids were struggling to finish.

I felt like I was hanging out with a friend; and the photos (unedited, that I saw during the shoot from the camera) looked great!

Kristen ★★★★★
Book Sarath immediately if you want absolutely stunning photos taken by a really kind human! I cannot say enough good things! I am literally the most awkward/worst person to take photos of and Sarath put me at ease and took so many of the most beautiful shots in the most beautiful location which I can now treasure and share with my family and friends! As a solo female traveler I rarely get good photos of myself, so I took this opportunity and couldn’t have been more pleased! The photos are absolutely fantastic! And Sarath made it easy and actually fun to have my photo taken (which I usually just feel a lot of panic). I also learned a lot from him both about the location and many other topics, I truly felt as though I was spending time with a friend. Even better Sarath is so kind. I really appreciated the way he took his time and also spoke with the residents where we were taking pictures, he took time to speak with the people around us and have real conversations. I truly cannot say enough good things! And did I mention the PHOTOS??? I am absolutely awed at how many and how lovely they all are! I still cannot believe I have these beautiful memories documented! Thank you Sarath, I am so grateful for every part of this experience! California, United States ·

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My fiancé and I had just gotten engaged and wanted to take photos to celebrate and remember our trip. It was our first time in northern Italy and Sarath’s knowledge on the best photo spots was amazing! Couldn’t recommend enough :) Santiago, Chile ·

It was a great experience shooting with Sarath in Cinque Terre. He is a great photographer and knew all of the best spots to shoot in Cinque Terre. Sarath was very accommodating on all levels and I really appreciate it. He was very welcoming and was able to take me all of the photos that I had in mind during my visit. Sarath has also taken me some really nice reels during the photoshoot. I can’t wait to share the photos and give Sarath a credit for his excellent work. I’d highly recommend Sarath to be your photographer next time you are visiting the the beautiful villages of Cinque Terre.. Thank you Sarath for this great Airbnb Experience! 📍 Cinque Terre ·
