- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)
- Booking and Photoshoot Organization
- How can I book a photoshoot? You can contact me via Instagram or WhatsApp to discuss the details. I will help you choose a convenient date, location, and concept. Your booking is confirmed after a deposit is made.
- Can my partner join the photoshoot? Yes, of course. Your partner can participate in the shoot at no extra charge.
- Where does the photoshoot take place? I shoot in the most scenic locations in Zanzibar. We will discuss the location in advance to choose the best option based on lighting, tides, and your preferences.
- Can we do a photoshoot at a hotel? I primarily shoot on the beach and in open locations. Photoshoots at hotels are possible if the management allows it.
- How do I get to the photoshoot location? You can take a taxi, rent a car, or choose a location near your hotel for convenience.
- Photoshoot Preparation
- What should I wear for the photoshoot? Light, airy fabrics and natural colors look best: white, beige, pastels, or vibrant tropical hues. Dresses and skirts with movement add dynamic elements to the shots. Avoid large logos and complex patterns.
- Can I bring multiple outfits? Yes, but changing outfits takes time. Since there are no changing rooms on the beach, you may need to change in a car or use a towel. It’s best to limit yourself to two outfits.
- Where can I change clothes? In most cases, you can change at a café, on the beach, or in a car. If you need more privacy, let me know in advance.
- Do you provide makeup and hairstyling? No, I focus solely on photography. You can prepare in advance or book a local stylist. Let me know if you need recommendations.
- Photoshoot Process
- When is the best time for a photoshoot in Zanzibar? Photoshoots are possible year-round as the weather is warm. The time of day affects the style of the images: during the day, colors are bright and vibrant, while closer to sunset, the light becomes softer and warmer.
- What if the weather is cloudy on the day of the shoot? Cloudy weather provides soft, even lighting without harsh shadows, which is great for portraits. However, the ocean may appear less vibrant on such days.
- I don’t know how to pose. Is that a problem? Not at all! I will guide you through poses and movements to ensure your photos look natural and beautiful.
- Editing and Photo Delivery
- How many photos will I receive? It depends on the package you choose. You will receive professionally edited, high-resolution images. Additional photos can be purchased separately.
- How long does it take to receive the final images? Editing takes 1 to 2 weeks after you select your photos. Express editing is available for an additional fee.
- Can I get the RAW (unedited) images? No, I do not provide unedited RAW files. You will receive carefully selected and professionally edited photos.
