If you see rain in the forecast, message me before changing your plans. We’ll look at conditions near the beach and decide whether to keep the session, try another beach or discuss a different time.
Clouds can work well for portraits
Cloud cover can soften shadows and make it easier to look toward the camera. If rain persists or conditions make the location unsuitable, we’ll review available options under your booking terms.
What if there’s sargassum?
Seaweed can vary by beach and day. If it affects the stretch we planned to use, we can look at another section of beach or choose a different meeting point together. See the public beach guide for alternatives.
When do we make the call?
A forecast several days ahead helps us think through a backup, but the decision depends on conditions closer to the session. Keep your agreed time until we talk. If you’re leaving the next day or have a fixed reservation, tell me so we can discuss the options that fit your trip.
What if the weather changes at the beach?
If a brief shower passes and the setting is suitable, we can discuss waiting a little. If the conditions make the session impractical, we can review a change of time or place based on availability and your booking terms. Keep your phone handy for updates before you get in a taxi.
Can we still get good beach photos with seaweed?
It depends on where it has gathered and the look you want. If you mainly want portraits, we may be able to work farther up the sand and change the angle. If a clear shoreline matters most, tell me early so we can look at alternatives before confirming the meeting point.
Can we choose a backup before the trip?
Yes. Tell me which part of the photos matters most to you: open water, bright sand or simply relaxed portraits together. We can choose a backup based on that priority and your travel plans, then confirm it only if conditions call for a change.
