The best time for your Kauai Family photo shoot
will depend on a couple of factors. A lot of people want to know when the best time of the day is to have a Kauai family photo shoot. We are happy to take your photos any time of the day, anywhere you want. However, there are better and worse places and time to take photos in terms of showing off the vivid tropical colors and, of course, you!
The following tips are taking adult schedules into consideration (not kids):
· We recommend booking your photo shoot as early in your trip as possible. There is a reasonable chance that someone in your party may get burned while you are here, and you will look a lot better if you’re not as red as a lobster! Also, if it has to be postponed due to rain, you’ll have more time to reschedule.
· If you are looking for sunset colors and overall good light, a good rule of thumb is to start about 90 minutes before sunset, assuming you are doing 30 to 60 minutes of photos. Start earlier if you are doing more than 60 minutes of photos.

· Try to avoid booking a photo shoot in the middle of the day when the sun is high. Not only will it be hot and potentially sweaty, but also you may look anxious or uncomfortable rather than happy and relaxed. If the middle of the day is the only time you have, then we will always find shade and make it work … but it’s best to choose a cooler and less bright time in the evening.
· Normally people are here visiting and want to optimize each precious day they are here, so often we get asked about doing it in the early morning so they can go about their day sightseeing. This is also a possibility, but not as great of an idea as sunset, because the sun comes up so quickly. Depending on which side of the island you are on, within minutes of it rising its angle can shine so strongly into one’s eyes that it can cause people to squint.
· We are happy to do it if you like, but we do not recommend taking photos right at sunset for a full family photo shoot with the sun going down directly behind you (unless that is one of the main objectives of the photo shoot). We can certainly do it, but that shot passes quickly and runs the risk of taking the focus away from the family and putting it onto the sun. This is a however good idea for couple photo shoots that want a feeling of romance.
