Most common questions about shoots

1. Who chooses the location for the photo shoot?

The final choice is always yours. As a local photographer, I know the island well and can quickly recommend the best locations based on your hotel, ideas, and preferences. Just tell me what you’re looking for, and I’ll suggest the most suitable options.


2. Does the package time include travel between locations?

No. The package includes shooting time only. Travel between locations is not counted, so you’ll receive the full amount of shooting time included in your package.


3. Are wedding packages the same as regular photo sessions?

No. Wedding photography and videography have different packages and pricing. Please send me an inquiry to receive a custom wedding quote.


4. How many people can join the photo session?

There’s no strict limit, but if your group has more than four people, please let me know in advance. Larger groups usually require a little more time to organize and photograph comfortably.


5. Is the session suitable for people without modeling experience?

Absolutely. Most of my clients have never been professionally photographed before. I’ll guide you throughout the entire session with natural posing and simple directions.


6. Do you provide a guide before the shoot?

Yes. I have a preparation guide that covers most photo sessions. If your shoot requires something more specific, I’ll send you a personalized guide.


7. Where is the best place for a photo shoot in Phuket?

It depends on the type of session and the style of photos you’d like to create. Sometimes your hotel offers beautiful scenery, making it unnecessary to travel anywhere else.
Simply choose your type of shoot on the website. Under each gallery you’ll find my recommended locations and a dedicated FAQ for that session.


8. Should I book in advance?

Yes.

I recommend booking 2–3 weeks in advance whenever possible. The earlier you book, the more likely your preferred date will be available.

For weddings, it’s best to book 3–6 months ahead.

The reservation deposit is 2,000 THB. I accept Wise, PayPal, and international bank transfers (SWIFT).


9. When will I receive my photos and videos?

The standard delivery time is 10–20 days, depending on the scope of the project and editing requirements.

Once everything is ready, you’ll receive a private online gallery with your photos and videos in high resolution.

Express editing is available with delivery in 3–4 days for an additional 30% of the package price.

The quality of express editing is exactly the same as the standard delivery.


10. Can you shoot outside Phuket?

Yes. My listed prices apply to Phuket only. For shoots elsewhere in Thailand or abroad, travel, accommodation, and related expenses are calculated separately.


11. What resolution do you deliver?

Photos are typically delivered at 2400 px on the long edge, which is more than enough for social media, personal storage, and most printing needs.

Videos are delivered in 4K or Full HD, depending on the project.

If you need higher-resolution files for large prints or commercial use, simply let me know before the shoot.


12. Can I receive all RAW photos or videos?

Yes. RAW files are available for an additional fee, typically 2,000–4,000 THB, depending on the project. For larger projects (50 GB or more), such as weddings, I recommend delivery via an SSD drive instead of cloud storage.


13. What happens if I’m late?

Please remember that I may have another session scheduled immediately after yours. If you arrive late, your shooting time may be reduced. Whenever possible, I recommend arriving a little early. Grab a drink, explore the area, and relax before the session so you’ll feel comfortable and ready.


14. How should I prepare for the photo shoot?

For the best experience and results in Thailand’s tropical climate, I recommend:

  • Avoid alcohol the day before.
  • Get a good night’s sleep.
  • Don’t eat a heavy meal immediately before the session.
  • Arrive a little early to relax and enjoy the location.
  • Wear light, breathable clothing suitable for the weather.
  • Follow my recommendations regarding the best location and shooting time.
  • Bring sunglasses or any accessories that match your chosen style.

If you’re unsure what to wear, I’ve also prepared a detailed styling guide.


15. What if it rains?

If the weather makes shooting impossible, we’ll either reschedule or move the session to another day whenever possible.

Keep in mind that weather forecasts on tropical islands aren’t always accurate. Cloudy weather often creates beautiful soft light and much more comfortable temperatures.


16. Do you offer drone photography and videography?

Yes. Drone coverage can be booked either as a standalone service or as an add-on to any package.


17. Can I book photography and videography together?

Absolutely. Depending on your project, I can either:

  • capture both photo and video myself; or
  • bring a professional videographer from my team so we can work together.

18. Do you help with posing and choosing locations?

Yes, of course. I’ll guide you throughout the entire session and recommend the best beaches, luxury resorts, viewpoints, and hidden locations that perfectly match your vision.


19. Can I choose which photos are edited?

Yes. Please let me know before the shooting day, and I’ll explain the available workflow.


20. Will you publish my photos or videos online?

By default, yes. My prices include a 30% portfolio discount in exchange for permission to use selected photos or videos in my portfolio and social media.

If you prefer complete privacy, I completely understand. Full confidentiality is available by removing the portfolio discount, which increases the total package price by 30%.


21. Do I own the photos and videos?

Absolutely! You’re free to share, print, frame, and enjoy them however you like for personal use.
