Vikash and Francesca had chosen to stay at the highly sought-after Mahogany Ridge, an Airbnb Bed and Breakfast nestled among the clouds on the way to Maracas, just off the road into Paramin. The views from this location were breathtaking, offering a picturesque backdrop for their photoshoot.

However, as a professional photographer, I knew the timing of the shoot would be a challenge. We had planned for a midday shoot, which meant harsh lighting conditions and overblown highlights in the background making it difficult to capture the stunning view behind the couple without sacrificing their image quality.

To make the most of the time we had, I planned the photoshoot in advance, mapping out the specific shots we wanted to take and anticipating any potential issues that could arise. I communicated with Francesca and Vikash to ensure they understood the timeline and had ample time for any outfit changes.

Despite the time constraints, I remained focused on capturing beautiful and authentic moments between the couple while still showcasing the stunning views of Mahogany Ridge. I used my expertise and creative eye to overcome the harsh lighting conditions, utilizing reflectors, diffusers, and strobes to balance the light and bring out more details in both the couple and the background.

The Mahogany Ridge location was an excellent choice for the photoshoot, and I couldn’t agree more with the sentiments expressed about this picturesque location. The cool, comfortable atmosphere of the location was likely due to its position among the clouds and the refreshing sea breeze in the distance. This made it a welcome relief from the sweating and discomfort that can often plague couples in other locations.

Not only was the location comfortable, but it also offered multiple iconic shots, such as the swing, the house, and the breathtaking views. As a photographer, I was thrilled with the opportunities this location provided and worked hard to create unique and stunning images for Vikash and Francesca.

Additionally, the guest changing and washroom facilities made the entire process even more comfortable and convenient for everyone involved, particularly during outfit changes.

One of the concerns that couples may have when choosing this location is the potential for their images to look similar to other couples who have had photoshoots here. However, I would like to emphasize that each couple’s images are unique and depend on various factors, such as their energy and pose, outfit choices, lighting, and backdrop. With careful attention to these elements, we were able to create completely individualized and stunning images for Vikash and Francesca.

Overall, Mahogany Ridge was an exceptional location for the photoshoot, and I was thrilled with the results we were able to achieve. The combination of its natural beauty, comfort, and convenience made it the perfect choice for this couple’s photoshoot.
