What are the recommended photo spots?

ユウコン フォトグラフィー

The recommended locations change based on your ideal photo: do you want a beautiful white, sandy beach in the background, or perhaps some mountains in the background?
Regardless, the most popular location in Okinawa, Hawaii, Bali, and any other tropical location is the beach resorts.

You'll also need to plan the spots in advance, especially if you want to get a beautiful sunset photo with the evening sun.


What kind of wedding dress is best for beach photos?

To capture the the sky blue and crystal ocean blue in the background, you'll want a pure white wedding dress.
However, an dress that's easy to move in is key. You'll also want to make sure you're allowed to get the dress dirty.
In fact, for men, wearing shorts and a dress shirt looks way more stylish on the beach than a tuxedo-- even if your bride is in a gown.

Many brides casually buy their own dress for a few hundred USD.

Also, it's popular for brides to go for a casual look with their hair down (which looks great!),
but winds at the beach can sometimes make it hard to manage. Make sure you keep track of the weather, and put your hair up accordingly.
Natural-style makeup that matches your dress is best. And don't forget that pedicure! You'll be walking around barefoot on the beach♪

When is the best season and time for beach photos?

We recommend early morning or late evening. When the sun is right above you, the light will be too bright for nice photos, and you'll also start breaking a sweat!
And if you're planning a resort vacation, try to avoid rainy seasons depending on the country. Make sure you ask your local photographer when the best times are-- you'll want to avoid crowds too.

What should I pack?

Sunscreen, sun parasols, and towels are a must! You can use the parasol during the shoot, and during your breaks inbetween too!

Recommended Prop #1: Colorful Sunglasses

Make your eyes pop with silly, fun sunglasses! They're particularly popular in tropical areas.

Recommended Prop #2: Photo Frame

A romantic idea using a photo frame fitted perfectly into the sandy beach. By using the correct angle and distance, it'll look like a photo set in your own world.♡

Recommended Prop #3: Letters

Set up special words or your names' initials on the sandy beach, or perhaps hold them together with the tropical blue landscape in the background.
