What to expect

We will begin by hearing what the locals have to say about how to best respect the land and being safe.(not going in the water) Then we will make our way down to the black sand beach and set up our photo shoot for your family vacation. I will give you a little history and answer any questions on the way down. I'll be here for you as a guide but dont mind taking a step back and capturing the moment in a more candid manner. We can stay as long as you'd like. Theres fruit to find(depending on season) and its an amazing and safe place to watch the sun set. The water is aggressive so no swimming but the sound of the waves will be worth spending the time to sit and listen for a while. Once we take our photos we will relax for a little while before making our way back up. (bring water for everyone). Its an easy hike down and a moderate hike back up, but we can take breaks as you like.(20 minutes up with no break) If you'd like to set up a proposal this would be an amazing place to do so. If thats the case we can talk about how you'd like me to set up to capture the moment without being noticed. Obviously you dont want to ruin the surprise so I can be as hidden as I need to be.
