Photographer & videographer in Canggu

Often yes, but each venue sets its own rules. Many cafés are happy with a short shoot outside peak hours if you order something; some beach clubs ban professional cameras or charge a fee, and a few require a minimum spend. We ask in advance and suggest places where we know a session works. For content shoots we plan the route so we are never waiting for a table.

Yes — Canggu is where most of those shoots happen. We photograph interiors in soft morning light, exteriors and pool at twilight when the lights are on, and add an aerial pass where the airport zone allows it. Before the day we send a short preparation checklist: cleared surfaces, fresh linen, lights working. Photos are delivered sized for listing platforms and your own website.

Knee-deep, on the right day, yes. The west coast has strong rips and dumping shore breaks, especially in the dry season swell. We keep you at the waterline where the wash reaches your ankles and take the "in the water" frames from a low angle, which looks deeper than it is. On rough days we skip it entirely; no frame is worth being knocked over in a dress.

In parts of it, at limited height. Canggu sits outside the busiest approach paths to Ngurah Rai but still within zones where altitude is restricted, and temples and ceremonies are off-limits. We check the zone for your exact location before promising aerial shots, fly only with the property owner's agreement for villa work, and keep the drone down when people on the beach would be overflown.
