Intercontinental Resort Thalasso & SPA

WELCOME TO BORA BORA AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN OUR WORK!

each resort being different, below you will find the details of our packages exclusively designed for the intercontinental thalasso bora bora

Working as a couple photographer, it is important for us to make your experience personal while having fun! Being being relaxed is a key element to capturing the most beautiful expressions in your photos! Our focus is for you to have a memorable experience and to deliver QUALITY images. All images are carefully selected and go through a detailed post-production re-touching process before delivery.

We love what we do and are generous with the time we spend on location.

Bonnie is great at coaching our couples through poses and scenes, assisting with your attire as well as handling light when required. She has an excellent eye for details and photography and is also my second shooter during Wedding ceremonies. We would be happy to arrange a Whatsapp call if you wish.

Below are photo package options and rates (in XPF TTC) based on time spent while on location for the photo shoot as well as the time necessary for post-production work.

Our work is not limited to shooting at your resort. We are open to shooting on private lagoon tours as well as other activities and excursions that take place on the island. We are open to suggestions and willing to work with our clients to meet their specific demands.

Having a contract with the intercontinental thalasso Bora Bora, billing is handled as a room charge by the resort – You can book us through the site in advance or while you are already here with any of the Concierges.

 

our signature - Combine a photo-shoot a the resort with a All inclusive full day aquatic photo tour

One of the most popular excursions in Bora Bora is a tour of the lagoon. It was logical for us to create a photo tour to focus on Aquatic photos with the wild life! This All inclusive PRIVATE tour is designed with photography in mind focusing on aquatic photos. We will start at the resort and spend an hour or so to capture photos at the resort prior to going on the tour. Some clients choose to stay dressed in wedding attire for some photos in the water and change to swimwear during the tour.

During this tour you will witness and experience first hand the beauty of the lagoon and Mt Otemanu, have close encounters with black tips sharks, stingrays, possibly some eagle rays and observe a wide variety of tropical fishes during the tour.

While not a “full” 360 lagoon tour which typically circles around the Island, we will still stop to snorkel at several of the most beautiful snorkeling spots on the Island allowing us to capture unique images.

I shoot with professional equipment; Each photo selected for delivery goes through post-production editing! These photos are unique and are not to be compared with the selfies you can take with your own equipment or a GoPro.. You are of course welcome to take some of your own photos and I will even help you!

As a professional diver and photographer, we will coach you to be comfortable in the water in order to ensure we capture the most amazing personal aquatic photos! Non swimmers are welcome!

After snorkeling, we will then settle on one of the most beautiful Motu of Bora Bora for lunch. At lunchtime we will have a fun and relaxed photo-shoot on the Motu. The motu truly has it all – a sensational beach, the most stunning water, the breathtaking backdrop of Bora Bora’s mountain-line including the mythical Mt Otemanu.

After lunch, we will take the time to have another photo session on the beach or in the water!

A change of clothes is recommended for the photos while on the Motu, colorful loose fitting clothing is just a suggestion.
It is recommended you bring your own snorkeling equipment as well as towel from the resort.

While others might deliver more photos, we will deliver PROFESSIONAL photos, our focus being on QUALITY! - All photos are carefully selected & edited

Lovely sky guarantee $

Even in Bora Bora, there could be times where the sky might not be what you dreamed of.  We always try to be as flexible as we can in re-scheduling a session but there at times  when it might not be possible for various reasons (especially for weddings planned long in advance) .

We understand this can be disappointing and while our standard editing process includes beautifying the sky, it might not be enough.  No panic, by popular demand; we can offer to replace the sky with a more dreamy sky, blue or sunset and it will blend in and not denature the photo.  The digital age is wonderful, why not take advantage of it!  Cost: $150 / 5 images.
