Honeymoon Photographer... has anyone done this?

Mrs C, 12 January, 2010 at 22:45 Posted on Planning 0 25

As the title says really... just had the thought pop into my mind and wondered if it would be worth it... stunning location, beautiful photographs!

Just don't really know how easy it would be to organise and if it's as expensive as in the UK?

    I keep offering to go on the honeymoon with my clients, lol.

    Actually, In May, will be in Cyprus for a week with one of my couples, going to do a pre-wedding shoot, the wedding day, and a day after shoot,, so this works quite well if you are getting married far away and your photographer is traveling for the wedding with you.

    I agree with you, I think it's a great idea,, have some great photos taken while you are in a cool location. All going to Bali or the Maldives feel free to contact me Smiley laugh

    I don't really know at the moment! H2B isn't really a sun worshipper so it would need to be one with a dive centre, trips etc.

    I know 2 peeps that have been to Kuredu... Need to start looking at it in more detail.

    I get discount with Capital World Travel through work so have emailed them to get them on the case and see what they can do for me!

    I'm very excited about it!

    How about you???

    Ooh is that Velassuru? Think my friend went there last year for her honeymoon.

    There are so many things I want to do there... sandbank lunch, diving, snorkelling, boat trips...

    I think we will have a honeymoon gift list for all the extras, my cousin had one and I thought it was a brilliant idea!

    Sri Lanka is fab!! If you get there, the big place everyone knows about is the Elephant Orphange in Pinnawella. I actually was not at all impressed and much prefered the Millinenium Elefphant Foundation which was just along the road. We got to wash our elephant, feed him bananas and ride on him!! Was amazing!!

    I had a photo shoot done on my last holiday to Mexico.

    As Claire said there are quite often Photographers who come to the resort to take photos. We were taken to the beach and had some lovely photos taken. She took around 30 and we chose 15 to take home. Some were Sepia, Black&White or the colour dulled down. We have one of the Sepia pics blown up on the wall, and everyone always comments on them.

    We stayed in Dom Rep December 2008 and there was an onsite photographer. he went round during the day taking pics and you could book him for photoshoots. Only time i've seen it though.

    Ahh - that sounds fab. I'd say do it! It's a chance for another country too! ?

    We were actually all-inclusive on the beach and B-L-D on the tour so didn't eat out really. There wasn't too many places in walking distance from our hotel that we saw TBH.

    Hi Mrs C

    I've been doing reportage photography work for a while and thought of an idea to shoot honeymoons in a subtle and non intrusive way. I have a certain idea in mind that you might be interested in terms of style. I have shot reportage for the film industry and i specialize in capturing intimate shots. Take a look at my website and if you like what you see we can discuss it further.

    Regards

    Christopher Ball Photography
