A Detailed Look at the Kos Proposal Photoshoot Experience
The Essence of the Experience
This 12-hour experience is designed to be flexible, with start times that depend on availability—so you can choose a slot that works best for your sunset. The core of the experience is a 1-hour professional photoshoot that captures your proposal in the most flattering light. The photographer, Christos Pap, is praised for his helpfulness and friendly demeanor, making the process smooth and enjoyable. As one reviewer, Nils, mentioned, “Christos was very helpful and gave us a very friendly welcome. It was a wonderful evening.”
The service includes guidance on where and when to pop the question, ensuring you’re in the right place at the right time—most often at sunset on the beach, which provides golden-hour lighting that’s ideal for romantic photos. You can even choose to keep your proposal a surprise or tell your partner about the photoshoot beforehand—either way, Christos offers discreet assistance to keep the moment genuine and heartfelt.
What to Expect During the Photoshoot
The photoshoot is typically set on Lambi beach, opposite the Aqua Blu resort, giving you a stunning backdrop of the sea and sky. If preferred, your hotel can be arranged as the meeting point, especially if you’re staying in places like Tigaki, Marmari, Mastichari, or Kardamena. The shoot lasts about an hour, during which you’ll be guided into natural, relaxed poses, and the photographer will help you find the most flattering angles.
Given the sunset timing, you’ll likely find the beach quiet and less crowded, enhancing the intimacy of your moment. The photos are then edited and delivered to you—perfect for sharing on social media or creating a keepsake album.

Investing in quality photos might seem like a luxury, but it’s often well worth the expense. As Nils said, “Christos was very helpful and gave us a very friendly welcome. It was a wonderful evening!” Knowing you’ll have beautiful images of this once-in-a-lifetime moment can turn an already special event into an everlasting memory.
While the basic package is the 1-hour shoot, there are options for more elaborate setups, such as decorated setups or video recordings, at extra charges. If you’re considering a surprise proposal, these extras can help make the moment even more memorable but remember to budget accordingly.
