Frequently Asked Questions
Are you in Sri Lanka?
Yes, I have been living in Sri Lanka year-round since 2021, occasionally taking vacations, which I inform my clients about in advance on my blog. I live in the Southern Province, in the village of Madiha. I conduct photoshoots all year round. I can travel to any part of the island upon request. I also offer trips to the Maldives
How do I book a photoshoot?
To book a photoshoot simply get in touch with me using any convenient method for you — WhatsApp message at +79854614990, DM on Instagram, or Telegram.
Typically, I suggest scheduling a call to discuss the shoot details thoroughly during a complimentary consultation, which lasts for a maximum of one hour. Following the consultation, I propose making a deposit to reserve a specific date and time on my calendar.
The deposit is $10 and serves as part of the full payment for the shoot. It can be transfered on bank accaunt that i will provide. Once the deposit is made, I enter your details into my client database and calendar, and start organizing your photoshoot.
How the photoshoot is organized?
Before the photoshoot, we’ll have another chat to discuss the details:
Location: Most of our photoshoots happen in southern Sri Lanka. I live in Madhia village. If it takes over an hour to get to you, we might need to talk about covering transport costs. There are two options: either I come to you, or we arrange transport for you to and from the shooting spot. We’ll figure out the cost based on how far we have to travel. We’ll talk about all this before you book, so you know exactly what to expect.
Styling help: We’ll work together to create your look, using clothes from your wardrobe or mine. I have a variety of items like tunics, beach accessories, and jewelry that you can use for free. You can also choose from clothes in partner stores, one of which is in Weligama.
Timing: We usually shoot in the morning at 7:00 a.m. or in the evening at 4:30 p.m. But we might need to adjust depending on the weather, especially during the rainy season. We’ll confirm the timing the day before the shoot to make sure everything’s set.
When do you deliver the photos or videos?
All materials will be ready within 2-3 business days
Can you show examples of your work?
I have a lot of my work showcased in the “Portfolio” section on my website. In my opinion, the most interesting ones are the shoots of women against the beautiful landscapes of Sri Lanka and the travel photos from around the island.
