Planning a photoshoot on Curaçao comes down to four steps: the request, setting the details, the shoot, and the photos. No long process. No three-page contract.
Here is how those steps look.
In short
- You send a request
- We set the date and the location
- The shoot itself
- After that: a preview and the download
You send a request
You send the request through the booking form or WhatsApp. Tell me who is coming, which date is roughly right, and where you are staying. If you are not sure yet which shoot it should be, that is fine. We look together at whether it is a couple shoot, a family shoot, or a larger group.
I get back to you shortly.
We set the date, the time, and the location
I know the places and the light. You do not need to send a list of beaches. We pick something that fits the occasion. Locations on the island are included in the rate. An entrance fee for a beach or a resort is separate.
How the prices are built is on what a photoshoot costs on Curaçao.
You then get a confirmation: date, place, time, and what is useful to wear. Clothing notes are also on what to wear for a photoshoot on Curaçao.
Light. Almost always early morning or late afternoon. In the morning the light is soft. In the middle of the day it is hard, and we avoid that when we can. If it rains, we move the shoot or shift the hour. How that works is on a photoshoot on Curaçao in bad weather.
The shoot itself
We start quietly. No list of setups to work through. We walk, we talk, and children can play. I give direction where it helps.
How long it takes depends on the package, about 45 to 90 minutes. There is no clock running. If it runs a little over, it runs over.
With children I work at their pace. What that feels like is on a photoshoot with children on Curaçao. A shoot with the whole family is on family photoshoot.
After that: preview and download
I select the photos and edit them. I do not use heavy filters. I look at color, light, and the crop.
You get the series digitally, in high resolution, within two weeks of the shoot. About two days after the shoot you also get two previews by email or WhatsApp.
You can share the photos, put them in a book, or print them. They are high resolution, and more than suitable for that.
In short
Request, then contact, then confirmation, then the shoot, then the photos within two weeks.
