The Experience

If you are coming to Dubai for a holiday, to visit family or even to get married, we can help to capture some fun times and make some beautiful memories of your trip. Blue sky, sunshine, waves lapping at your toes, or beautiful green grass and flowers surrounding you. Here in Dubai we love visiting the beach and the hotels have the most beautiful spots, they are just fabulous locations for a shoot, many with great garden spaces and beaches. Whether you have sand or grass beneath your feet, our Hotel shoot package is guaranteed to make you forget any worries or cares and focus on one thing – having fun! All arrangements are made on email, we have worked in most of the great hotels in Dubai, permissions do need to be arranged with the hotel, for the shoot, prior to the day, but we can help with this, it’s a normal process with the hotels in Dubai, we will work with your concierge to make this happen. Once arranged and approved, we will spend a relaxed and precious hour with you and get some great shots.

top-tips

Top Tips

  • Do book early, our diary fills up, some people book months and months before their visit.
  • We need to gain shoot permissions from your hotel, ask us to help you with this.
  • For beach shoots, avoid wearing all white (white shirts, blue jeans looks great).
  • Some families / couples colour co-ordinate to create a theme and this can look fantastic!
  • Do bring a towel, sometimes, there’s some paddling, splashing in the waves towards the end of the shoot.
  • We shoot very early morning or late afternoon, when the beaches and gardens are a little quieter and we can enjoy good temperaturs and good light.
  • If you have a favourite family game, that you like to play with at the beach or park, bring it along, this way we can capture lovely relaxed images of the family having fun.
  • If you have a favourite hat, snorkel, sunglasses, anything at all, these can make for fun photoographs, bring them along.
  • If you have ideas for images, do let us know, we will guide you, but we’re also aware many people have creative thoughts too.
