Why Azores for Your Photoshoot

The Azores archipelago is one of Europe's best-kept secrets. These nine volcanic islands in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean offer otherworldly landscapes — emerald-green crater lakes (Sete Cidades), steaming hot springs, lush tea plantations, and dramatic coastal cliffs. São Miguel, the largest island, is the most popular for photography, with its iconic twin lakes of Sete Cidades, the thermal pools of Furnas, and verdant pastures dotted with hydrangeas. The Azores offer a truly unique, off-the-beaten-path backdrop for memorable photoshoots.

I hired Beatriz for a secret proposal and she was amazing from start to finish. She helped me choose an area on Sao Miguel and we ended up deciding on a park next to Sete Cidades. She went as far as sending me diagrams so we could map out…

I had a fantastic experience with Hugo. He's a great guy who really knows the island and shows you some of the best places you would probably never find on your own. He's also a very good conversationalist, which made the whole tour feel…

On our trip to the Azores last year, we hired Hugo for a family photo shoot with our brand new 4 month old baby. As you can imagine, doing a photo shoot with such a young baby can be challenging. Hugo was fantastic. He was able to work…

Frequently Asked Questions About Photography in the Azores

How much does a photoshoot in the Azores cost?

Photoshoots in the Azores start from €279, with most one- to two-hour packages between €279 and €450 depending on duration, the number of edited photos and the locations covered. Crater lakes and hot springs are spread across the island, so sessions that link several of them are usually booked as half days, with travel time built in.

What are the best photo spots in the Azores?

On São Miguel, the twin crater lakes at Sete Cidades seen from the Vista do Rei, Lagoa do Fogo from the ridge road, the thermal garden and steaming ground at Furnas, the tea plantations at Gorreana, and the flower-terraced viewpoint at Ponta do Sossego on the east coast.

When is the best time of year for photos in the Azores?

The Azores change weather several times a day, and the crater rims collect cloud even when the coast is sunny, so mornings are usually the clearest. Hydrangeas turn the roadsides blue from June to August, the driest stretch of the year. Winter is green, wild and dramatic. Whatever the season, build slack into the plan and expect to move things.

Can we do a photoshoot on an island other than São Miguel?

Yes, but plan it early. A session on Pico, Faial or Terceira usually means bringing a photographer over from São Miguel, with flights and travel time on top of the session — worth it for the lava-walled vineyards or the ash fields of Capelinhos. Inter-island flights are short but weather-dependent, and summer ferries link the central group.
