## In short

An Instagram content shoot on the Gili Islands costs from $190 for 30 minutes on Gili Trawangan, with one or two looks and a shot list built from your feed. You receive 15+ edited photos, each cropped to 4:5 and 9:16, online within 48–72 hours. Extra looks or locations are $100 per hour.

Gili Trawangan already lives on social media — the swings in the sea, the bicycles with wicker baskets, the white-sand lanes — and that is both its strength and its problem for a content shoot. The famous frames are recognisable, but they are also on thousands of feeds, usually shot at sunset with a queue just out of shot. A content session here is about getting those references with something of your own in them, and about everything around them that most visitors walk past: a turquoise door in a village lane, a warung counter with hand-painted signs, the texture of a boat hull, a café corner with morning light through bamboo. We build the shot list from your feed before the day, so the photos match your grid, and deliver every selected frame cropped for posts, stories and covers.

## How the shoot is planned

We flip the usual order and do the swings first — at 7 am, when the west coast is empty, the water is glassy and nobody is waiting behind you. Ten minutes there gives the recognisable frames without a crowd: you on the swing, walking out to it, feet in the water, plus wide vertical frames with space at the top for text. Then we move inland on foot into the lanes behind the coast for the second look: a bicycle against a painted wall, a doorway, a café before it opens, details of hands, coffee and fabric that fill out a carousel. The session ends on whatever spot your shot list asks for, whether a pool, a hammock or the harbour. With an extra hour ($100) we add a third look and the golden-hour coast in the evening.

## Timing

Morning is the content slot on Gili Trawangan. Between 6.30 and 8.30 am the swings and the beach paths are empty, the light is soft but bright enough for clean, airy frames, and the lanes are in open shade. Sunset is the famous time but also the busiest, with every swing taken from about 5 pm; we use it only if your feed needs those warm silhouettes, and we work around the queue. The dry season, April to October, gives blue skies and the clearest water colour; in the wet season, November to March, mornings are still usually bright, and a stormy sky after rain can give moodier frames if that suits your grid. If you are posting during the trip, express delivery ($50) gets the gallery to you in 24 hours.

## What is included

The Instagram content shoot package in Gili Islands covers: 15+ edited photos; Vertical 4:5 and 9:16 crops of every selected frame; One or two looks in one spot; more with the extra-hour add-on; Shot list built from your feed before the day; Private online gallery within 48–72 hours.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do we have to pay to use the swings on Gili Trawangan?

The swings belong to beach bars and hotels, so expect to order a drink or pay a small fee; it varies by owner and is paid on the spot, not included in the shoot price. Early in the morning some bars are not open yet, and we ask staff before using a swing. We never move furniture or block a bar’s customers.

### How many outfits can I change into in 30 minutes?

One or two. With no car to change in, a second look means a quick change at your accommodation or in a café restroom, so we plan the route past where you are staying. If you want three or more looks, or a second location such as the sunset coast, add an extra hour ($100) so the changes do not eat into the shooting time.

### Can you shoot content for a brand or a hotel on the Gilis?

For a personal or creator account, yes: this session is built for that. If the photos promote a hotel, café or product, tell us when you book, as the location owner’s permission matters and a hotel’s own listing photos are a different service — villa and hotel photography. Product shots in your hands, such as swimwear or sunglasses, fit fine into this session.

### Can I get a reel from the same session?

Yes, the reel add-on is $110 and gives one vertical clip of 15–30 seconds, filmed between frames and delivered within 5–7 days. If video is as important to you as photos, the separate reels service gives three edited reels with a concept for each, which suits a creator account better.
