Yacht & boat photoshoot in Phuket
In short
Yacht & boat photoshoot in Phuket — from $299. 2 hours on location with a vetted local photographer; you receive 60 edited photos. The price is agreed before you book and does not move.
Why book a yacht & boat photoshoot in Phuket?
Phuket’s yachts leave from the east-coast marinas — Chalong, Ao Po or Yacht Haven, depending on the boat — and the season decides the route. From November to April it can head west towards Racha or Phi Phi on a calm sea. From May to October open-sea crossings are often cancelled, so we stay in Phang Nga Bay, sheltered from the monsoon swell and full of limestone islands. Two hours aboard covers deck, bow and swimming shots. If you already have a charter we join it; if not, we book a boat at the local rate and tell you the price before you confirm.
The hour matters more than the location. For Promthep Cape, the window to aim for is sunrise, or an hour before sunset. The session runs 2 hours and is built around that window rather than your diary: between ten and four the tropical sun is almost overhead, and timing is the one variable that genuinely changes the result.
What does the session in Phuket look like?
The typical plan runs 2 hours. We start at Promthep Cape and move on to Karon Viewpoint (Kata Noi, Kata and Karon). Two locations rather than one give you two distinct backdrops, and the walk between them produces the frames made in motion — frequently the truest of the set.

FAQ — Yacht & boat photoshoot in Phuket
Yacht & boat photoshoot in Phuket: what time should we book?
For Promthep Cape, aim for sunrise, or an hour before sunset. At a busy location, two hours either way changes what can be framed at all.
Do we need a permit to shoot in Phuket?
Not at the locations we use for this session — they are public beaches and open spaces. If your request falls outside that, we say so before you book.
What happens if it rains in Phuket?
We move the session to another slot or another day at no cost. A tropical downpour usually passes within the hour; if you are only here briefly, we switch to sheltered locations scouted in advance rather than cancelling.
When do we get the results from Phuket?
60 edited photos. Timing is as listed in the package — boat charter arranged on request, priced separately — in a private online gallery, downloadable at full resolution from any country.
