Solo Photography on Madeira

Solo Photography on Madeira

Some people travel alone. Some just want frames where they are the only subject. A solo session works the same way as my other sessions: one location, no rush, no posing school. You walk, I direct only when it helps, and the island does the rest.

What you get are photos of yourself on Madeira that were not taken at arm's length. Cliffs behind you, black sand under your feet, old town streets in the evening light. Honest frames of a trip you took on your own terms.

Common questions

How do I book a session?

+

Send me a WhatsApp message with your preferred dates and the type of session you have in mind. I usually respond within the hour to confirm availability and answer any questions.

How far in advance should I book?

+

For peak months (April through October), 2 to 4 weeks in advance is typical. For specific dates during holidays or popular travel weeks, earlier is safer. Last-minute sessions are sometimes possible. Just ask.

Do you require a deposit?

+

No. Your word holds the date. You pay on the day of the session, cash or bank transfer.

What if I need to cancel?

+

No problem. Tell me as early as you can and we reschedule or let it go. No fees, no paperwork.

How do you direct people who are not comfortable in front of a camera?

+

I give one or two simple directions at the start, then I step back. Most of the frames I use come from moments between poses: when you look at each other, when someone laughs at something. You don't need to perform.

Can we bring our dog?

+

Yes.

What should we wear?

+

Avoid strong patterns and matching outfits. They age quickly in photos and pull attention away from faces. Soft, muted colors work well against Madeira's landscapes. Layers are practical because temperatures vary a lot between the coast and the mountains.

How many locations do we visit?

+

Depends on the scope. Short: 1 location. Classic: 1–2 locations. Extended: 2–3 locations. VIP Day: 4–5 locations. I plan the route.

When do we receive the photos?

+

Standard delivery is 10 days after the session. Express delivery (24 hours) is available for an additional fee.

How are photos delivered?

+

Via a private download link sent to your WhatsApp or email. You receive high-resolution JPEGs, ready for printing, sharing, or any personal use.

How many photos do we receive?

+

Short: 25–30. Classic: 50–70. Extended: 150. VIP Day: 200+. These are minimums. I usually deliver slightly more.
