Reviews: Clients' Testimonials
I was visiting Singapore from London and wanted to get a outdoor beach photoshoot done and Skai was amazing in all communication prior to the shoot. He has great vision and local knowledge that helped make our shoot a success. On the day he was friendly and put me at ease, he works hard to get the right shot not afraid to get wet or uncomfortable as long as the client is happy!
The pictures came out great and he offered genuine advise on any retouching never trying to upsell which is refreshing. Would highly recommend!- Deepraj Puri

How Skai Began Doing Beach Portrait Photoshoots
It all started with my very first beach portrait, which happened to be a bikini shoot. At that time, I was still new to the world of photography, and I relied solely on natural light to capture the beauty of the moment. Little did I know that this experience would ignite a passion within me for capturing the essence of individuals in the enchanting beach setting.
One thing that attracted me to beach photography was the accessibility of these scenic locations. Beaches are often freely accessible to the public, providing a stunning backdrop for capturing beautiful moments without limitations. This accessibility allowed me to explore and experiment, honing my skills and learning to appreciate the diverse opportunities that beach photography presented.
As I continued my journey, I discovered that beach portrait photography was not limited to just bikini photoshoots. The beach became a canvas for various genres to come alive. From capturing fitness enthusiasts in action to showcasing the laid-back lifestyle of vacationers, the opportunities seemed endless. The beach's natural beauty and versatile atmosphere made it an ideal location for a range of photography genres, each with its unique charm.
Embracing these opportunities, I ventured into different beach shoots, expanding my expertise and exploring the limitless possibilities that the coastal environment offered. Each shoot presented a chance to discover new perspectives, tell compelling stories and create captivating images that celebrated the beauty of individuals and their connections.
So, while my journey began with a bikini shoot, it quickly evolved to encompass a multitude of photography genres—fitness, wedding, lifestyle, vacation and more—all brought to life against the backdrop of the beach. This realisation reinforced the notion that beach portrait photography goes far beyond a single style or theme. It is a versatile and captivating medium that allows me to capture the essence of individuals and celebrate their unique stories amidst the enchanting beauty of the beach.
Why Skai Loves Doing Beach Portrait Photoshoots
Oh, let me tell you why I adore beach portrait photography! First and foremost, the beach holds a special place in my heart because most of these picturesque locations are accessible to the public without any charges. This accessibility means that I can freely explore and use these stunning natural backdrops to create captivating and meaningful portraits for my clients.
Beyond the practicality, beach portrait photography ignites my passion because it allows me to combine my love for photography with the enchanting beauty of the coastal environment. The beach provides a unique and versatile canvas for my creativity to soar. I get to play with the interplay of light and shadows, the dance of waves and the vastness of the horizon, all of which contribute to the magic of every photograph.
But the real joy lies in capturing the authentic connections and emotions of my clients in this serene setting. There's something truly special about how people open up and reveal their genuine selves amidst the soothing sounds of the ocean and the warmth of the sand beneath their feet. The beach evokes a sense of tranquillity and freedom, making it a perfect place to capture moments of pure joy, love and serenity.
Moreover, beach portrait photography isn't just about a specific style or theme. It offers a diverse range of possibilities, from family gatherings and couple's sessions to solo portraits and lifestyle shoots. Each client brings their own story and personality, and the beach provides the perfect backdrop to weave their narratives into timeless images.
The joy and satisfaction I get from beach portrait photography come not only from the final images but also from the experience of connecting with my clients. Being able to make them feel comfortable, safe and truly themselves during the shoot is incredibly rewarding.
In a nutshell, I love doing beach portrait photography because it allows me to combine my passion for photography with the breathtaking beauty of the beach. It's a place where creativity knows no bounds and where I can capture genuine connections and emotions that will be cherished for a lifetime. It's a true joy to share this experience with my clients and create meaningful portraits that they will treasure forever.
Understanding Beach Portrait Photography
What is Beach Portrait Photography?
Beach portrait photography, skilfully executed by a beach portrait photographer, involves capturing individuals or groups against the enchanting coastal backdrop. It focuses on showcasing the unique personalities and relationships of the subjects, making use of the stunning beach setting to create captivating portraits. This genre of photography finds application in a variety of contexts, including personal photoshoots such as bikini or fitness sessions, as well as family, couple, wedding and maternity portraits. Each beach portrait becomes a cherished keepsake, preserving memories and celebrating the inherent beauty of connections amidst the splendour of nature.
This genre of photography has a wide range of uses. Families and couples often seek beach portrait photography to capture their special bond against the backdrop of the serene coast. Wedding portraits taken on the beach add a touch of romance and natural beauty to the album. Expecting mothers embrace the beach setting for their maternity photoshoots, while seniors appreciate the nostalgia and tranquillity it offers. Additionally, individuals seek beach portraits to celebrate their personal milestones, such as bikini or fitness sessions, showcasing their confidence and strength amidst the beauty of the beach.
The goal of beach portrait photography is to encapsulate the essence of the subjects, showcasing their personalities and relationships against the breathtaking beach backdrop. It aims to create timeless images that serve as treasured keepsakes, preserving the beauty of connections and the emotions shared in the enchanting coastal environment. The beach portrait photographer's ultimate objective is to craft captivating and meaningful portraits that tell stories, evoking emotions and celebrating the inherent allure of nature's splendour.
What is Beach Portrait Photography also Known as?
Beach portrait photography is also known by other synonymous terms such as seaside portraits or coastal portraits. These alternative terms highlight the distinctive setting and emphasise the connection between the subjects and the alluring beach environment. Regardless of the name, the essence of beach portrait photography remains centred around capturing authentic and heartfelt moments in the coastal setting.
Challenges of Doing Beach Portrait Photography in Singapore?
While beach portrait photography in Singapore is truly enchanting, it does come with its fair share of challenges. Let me break them down for you:
- Weather unpredictability: Singapore's tropical climate means that weather conditions can be quite unpredictable. Sudden rain showers or scorching sun can disrupt planned photoshoots and require flexibility in scheduling.
- Crowded beaches: Singapore's popular beaches can get crowded, especially on weekends and public holidays. Managing the presence of other beachgoers in the background can be a challenge in creating the desired intimate and serene atmosphere.
- Limited golden hour opportunities: The window for capturing that magical golden hour light can be relatively short in Singapore due to its proximity to the equator. Timing is crucial to ensure the best lighting conditions for stunning portraits.
- Changing tides and water conditions: The beach environment is dynamic, with shifting tides and water levels. Photographers need to be aware of the tides to avoid potential hazards and ensure the safety of their clients.
- Wind and sand: The coastal breeze can be both refreshing and challenging during a beach photoshoot. Dealing with windblown hair and sand can be a task in achieving the desired polished look.
- Equipment protection: Sand and sea spray can be harsh on photography gear. Ensuring the safety and protection of expensive equipment while shooting at the beach requires extra care and precautions.
- Permit requirements: Some beaches in Singapore may have permit requirements for commercial photography. Navigating the necessary permits and permissions can be an additional consideration for photographers.
- Limited privacy: The public nature of beaches means that privacy can be a concern during photoshoots, especially for more intimate sessions like boudoir photography.
Despite these challenges, the allure of beach portrait photography in Singapore far outweighs the hurdles. As a seasoned professional, I've developed strategies to overcome these obstacles and ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for my clients, capturing their moments of joy, love, and connection amidst the beauty of the beach.
