If you’re heading to Malta and want more than just snapshotted memories of your trip, a professional photoshoot might be just what you need. This experience, led by Polina Mifsud, offers a chance to turn fleeting moments into timeless keepsakes with a photoshoot in Valletta or Sliema. While I haven’t personally experienced it, the combination of glowing reviews, thoughtful service, and stunning locations suggests it’s a worthwhile addition to your Malta itinerary.
What really stands out here are the personalized approach to photography, the high-quality digital images, and the flexibility of the experience. Travelers love how relaxed and genuine the photos turn out, thanks to Polina’s friendly guidance. The cost of $187 for up to 3 people seems reasonable for a professional session that provides at least 70 digital photos and 10 retouched images.
However, potential downsides include extra costs for additional people and the fact that transportation and entrance fees aren’t included. This tour appeals most to those wanting authentic, candid images rather than stiff, posed photos and who value memorable souvenirs over mass-produced trinkets. If you’re looking for a personalized, fun-filled experience that captures your Malta adventure authentically, this is well worth considering.

What to Expect from the Photoshoot
This isn’t your typical touristy photo session. Instead, it’s designed to produce candid, heartfelt images that truly reflect your personality and the joy of your trip. The experience lasts between 45 minutes and 1.5 hours, depending on your schedule and preferences, with a typical session focusing on a mix of group shots, individual portraits, and spontaneous moments.
The process kicks off with a pre-session consultation, where the photographer, Polina Mifsud, discusses your style, preferred locations, and wardrobe choices. Reviewers highlight how this step makes a real difference—allowing Polina to capture photos that match your vision and ensuring you feel comfortable during the shoot.
Locations: Valletta or Sliema
You can opt for a photoshoot in the historic streets of Valletta, with its baroque architecture, charming alleys, and impressive fortifications providing a dramatic backdrop. Alternatively, the coastal charm of Sliema offers sun-kissed sea views, modern promenades, and vibrant cafes—ideal for relaxed, seaside shots.
What’s great is the flexibility to change locations if you desire—just communicate your wishes, and arrangements can be made. The tours are typically conducted in the locations confirmed via email, but there’s room for customization.
Group Size and Outfit Changes
The price covers up to 3 people, with an additional €10 fee for each extra participant. Multiple outfit changes are welcome—this can add variety to your photos, from casual beachwear to smarter evening looks. Some accessories or dresses might even be offered to enhance your wardrobe options.

Delivery and Editing
Within just 3-5 business days, you’ll receive your entire photo collection via Google Drive. The package includes at least 70 high-resolution images in color-corrected files. Plus, you get to select your 10 favorite images, which Polina’s team will professionally retouch into stunning art pieces—perfect for framing or sharing.
Value for Money
At $187, the cost might seem modest given the quality and quantity of images provided. Considering most professional photoshoots in popular destinations can run much higher, this package offers great value, especially for small groups or families. The price includes all the digital images, pre-session planning, and delivery—no hidden costs.
Additional Considerations
While the experience covers the shoot itself, transportation, entrance fees, and food are not included. If you plan to visit specific sites requiring tickets or need transportation, you’ll want to factor those costs into your overall budget. Also, there’s no hotel pickup offered, so you’ll need to arrange your own transportation to the shooting location.

The opportunity to capture genuine laughter, love, and connection amidst iconic Maltese scenery is priceless.

From the glowing reviews, it’s clear Polina is skilled at making everyone feel at ease, even children or shy travelers. The inclusion of small touches, like a mini gift for kids and the ability to relax and enjoy the walk, elevate this above standard photoshoots.
