Beach photo sessions

Three flat-rate packages: $250 USD for a mid-day session with 10 edited photos, $330 for a 1-hour standard session with 20 photos and mixed natural light + fill flash, and $400 for the Golden Hour session at sunrise or sunset with 20 super-edited photos and cinematic color grading. For custom projects — multi-location, drone, large groups, or editorial concepts — we offer a custom quote.

It depends on the aesthetic. Bávaro and Cabeza de Toro have the classic white sand and palm-line look — great for editorial portraits and destination weddings. Macao is more rugged with bigger waves and cinematic sunsets. Juanillo (Cap Cana) is exclusive and uncrowded, ideal for premium sessions. Private hotel beaches work if your stay allows — we help coordinate with the property manager.

On the east coast (Punta Cana, Bávaro), sunset golden hour runs roughly 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM, give or take 20 minutes by month. Sunrise golden hour is around 6:00 AM to 7:00 AM. We book the Golden Hour session 75 minutes before peak so we have time to arrive, calibrate, and shoot the best light. North-coast locations (Las Terrenas, Cabarete) shift by a few minutes — we confirm exact times when locking the date.

Yes. Saona Island is one of our most-requested destinations — the exclusive session is quoted under the Custom package because it includes boat or catamaran transport and full-day logistics. Bayahíbe, La Romana, Las Terrenas, Samaná, and Bahía de las Águilas are all covered, with transparent transport add-ons. If your beach isn’t listed, message us on WhatsApp and we’ll quote it.

Mid-day: 10 edited photos delivered in 48 hours via a private online gallery. Standard: 20 edited photos with skin and color retouching, delivered in 5–7 days. Golden Hour: 20 super-edited photos with cinematic color grading plus 5 vertical Reels-ready crops, delivered in 7–10 days. All galleries ship in high resolution with personal-use licensing.

Two outfits that contrast with the blue ocean — earth tones, white, beige, or subtle prints work best. Bring sunscreen, water, a brush, and simple accessories. If the session includes water, plan an extra change of clothes and a towel. We direct pose and expression throughout the session, so no previous on-camera experience is needed.

Yes. The standard packages cover up to 5 people; for larger groups (extended families, bachelorette parties, friend groups) we use the Custom package with extra time and choreographed direction so everyone looks their best. We coordinate outfits and positions before the shoot to avoid the “school photo” feel.

We charge a 50% deposit via Stripe (card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay) to lock the date. The balance is paid on the session day by transfer, cash, or card. The deposit is refundable up to 7 days before the session; inside the 7-day window it’s transferable to another date at no extra cost. Severe-weather cancellations (hurricane, tropical storm) are always rescheduled with no penalty.
