DO MORE IN THE DESTINATION
When booking your flights for the engagement shoot and then later for the wedding, it is a good idea to arrange additional work, or do a styled shoot whilst you are there to ensure that the cost of the flights are diluted with other business.
When arranging a styled shoot, it’s advisable to be in touch with a local modelling agency.
They will be able to send you head shots of available models and advise you on make-up artists and hair stylists. You should also source a good florist to make up a bouquet if you are doing a mock wedding shoot. Whether you want to shoot fashion or wedding, it’s the perfect time to contact a designer, preferably even from your own country or home-town. They would love to have photographs of their designs in an exotic location, and would probably be more than willing to lend you a few wedding gowns or outfits in exchange for the images. Give yourself a day or two extra to do this work. Keep your communication up with your clients as regards your flight confirmation, just so they are reassured that all is on track.
