How to Plan Your Perfect Beach Shoot
1. Choosing Your Location
Kerala is blessed with a long coastline, but each beach has its own unique character. Consider what vibe you're going for:
- Marari Beach (Alappuzha): Known for its clean, quiet shores and beautiful palm groves. Ideal for a serene and private feel, away from the crowds.
- Varkala Beach: Famous for its stunning red cliffs that provide a dramatic, one-of-a-kind backdrop against the Arabian Sea. Perfect for epic, wide-angle shots.
- Cherai Beach (Kochi): Offers the unique view of calm backwaters meeting the sea, giving you two distinct landscapes in one beautiful location.
- Bekal Beach (Kasaragod): The historic Bekal Fort overlooks the beach, offering a majestic and timeless setting that blends history with natural beauty.

2. Perfecting Your Outfits
Your outfits should complement the natural beauty of the beach. Think light, airy, and romantic.
- For Her: A flowy white or pastel-colored maxi dress is a classic choice. It catches the wind beautifully and creates a soft, ethereal look. Light fabrics like cotton, chiffon, or linen work best.
- For Him: Complement her outfit with light-colored chinos or linen trousers and a simple, untucked shirt (white, beige, or light blue). Keep it relaxed and comfortable.
- Tip: Consider bringing a second, more casual outfit (like shorts and a top) for playful shots in the water. Avoid anything too formal, dark, or with busy patterns that might distract from the scenery.
3. Timing is Everything: The Golden Hour
The secret to breathtaking beach photos is the light. We exclusively shoot during the "Golden Hours"—the hour right after sunrise or the hour just before sunset. This time provides a soft, warm, and magical light that eliminates harsh shadows and makes your photos glow.
4. Poses & Interaction: Just Be Yourselves!
Forget stiff, awkward poses. The best photos come from genuine moments. We'll guide you with prompts to bring out your natural chemistry. Be prepared to:
- Walk hand-in-hand along the shoreline as the waves gently wash over your feet.
- Have a playful splash-fight in the shallow water.
- Sit together on the sand, wrapped in a light blanket, and watch the sunset.
- A gentle forehead kiss or a shot of him whispering in her ear.
- Create a classic silhouette shot against the colorful evening sky.
- Run towards the camera, laughing and holding hands for a dynamic, joyful photo.
Our goal is to capture the real connection between you two. Just relax, have fun, and let your love shine!
