Photo Shoots in the South Aegean: Historic Venues
Planning a photo shoot in the South Aegean means choosing between very different backdrops: a 17th-century monastery-castle on Naxos, a restored 1870 neoclassical villa above the Santorini caldera, a 19th-century mansion with garden in Andros, a heritage villa in Pyrgos Kallistis, or a 15th-century Venetian palace in Naxos Old Town. Each venue's setting, architecture and event arrangements shape what is possible on the day.
