Book golden hour for soft, warm light
Schedule your 30-minute shoot around the hour after sunrise or the hour before sunset to maximize flattering, directional light.
Arrive 10 minutes early
Photographers often have back-to-back bookings; arriving early ensures you get the full session time and a quick location walk-through via WhatsApp.
Choose 2–3 outfit options
Quick changes allow variety in a short session—bring layers and contrasting colors to work with the park’s greens and water reflections.
Mind the foot traffic
Aim for quieter paths or the rose garden corners if you prefer fewer passersby; the park is busiest mid-day and on sunny weekends.
Comfortable shoes
Good footwear makes moving between locations and standing for portraits easier.
Light layers
Layered clothing lets you change looks quickly and stay comfortable as temperatures shift.
Portable phone charger
Keep your phone powered for WhatsApp coordination and backup photos.
Small prop (scarf, hat, bouquet)
A simple prop adds visual interest and can help you relax in front of the camera.
