Adventure Tips
Arrive Early for Best Light
Plan to arrive at least 15 minutes before your scheduled time to settle in and make the most of the sunset’s changing colors.
Prepare for Coastal Winds
Hilton Head can be breezy, especially near the water, so bring hair ties or headwear if you want to manage wind-blown hair during your shoot.
Dress for the Beach Environment
Wear comfortable footwear and avoid clothing that easily collects sand or looks out of place in natural beach settings.
Check Weather and Tide Schedules
Weather can shift quickly on the coast; keep an eye on forecasts and tide tables, as tides impact beach accessibility and background scenery.
