This page as HTML: https://www.senjalight.com/services/pre-wedding/lombok ## In short A pre-wedding photoshoot on Lombok costs from $590 for 30 minutes at one location in one outfit — typically Tetebatu’s rice fields under Rinjani at sunrise, or a south-coast bay at golden hour. You receive 15+ edited photos, with the full gallery in 7 days. A second outfit or location is added with extra hours at $100 each. A pre-wedding shoot on Lombok forces a choice that Bali hides, because the island’s two best moods sit two and a half hours apart. In the south you get gold or green grass headlands and turquoise bays; in the east and north, rice terraces at the foot of Rinjani and waterfalls in the forest. Tetebatu is the one most couples have not heard of: rice fields like Bali’s, with the volcano behind them instead of a queue. The starting package is thirty minutes, one location and one outfit, timed for the best light, and on Lombok we recommend you keep it that way rather than trying to cross the island. If you want both moods, book two sessions on two days — a south-coast evening and a Tetebatu sunrise — or add extra hours for a second look at the same place. Either way, you receive a gallery that feels like Lombok, not like a cheaper Bali. ## How the shoot is planned The Tetebatu session starts in the dark: from the south coast it is roughly an hour and a half’s drive, so most couples sleep in Tetebatu the night before. At about 6 am we walk out along the raised dikes between the paddies while Rinjani is still clear of cloud — the volcano tends to hide by mid-morning. The first frames are wide, the two of you small in a sea of green with the cone behind; then closer, walking the narrow dike in single file, sitting on a farmer’s shelter, the bride’s dress lifted off the mud. Farmers arrive early; we greet them, keep out of the young rice and never trample a paddy for a frame. The south-coast alternative is Mawun, a horseshoe bay enclosed by two headlands, shot from the slope and finished on the sand. ## Timing Rinjani is clearest at dawn and in the dry season, roughly May to September; by 9 am cloud often caps the summit, which is why Tetebatu is a sunrise shoot. The rice itself runs on its own calendar: freshly planted fields are mirror-like and flooded, mid-cycle they are the vivid green most couples want, and before harvest they turn gold. We check the stage of the fields near your date and tell you honestly what you will see. The south-coast bays are better at golden hour, around 5 to 6 pm. Gallery delivery is 7 days whichever you choose. ## What is included The Pre-wedding photoshoot package in Lombok covers: 15+ edited photos; One location and one outfit, timed for the best light; A second location and outfit with extra hours — the drive between them planned; Entry fees and photo permits for each spot listed in advance; Full gallery within 7 days.

Technically yes, practically we advise against it. Tetebatu to the south coast is about an hour and a half, so one day means a sunrise session, a long middle-of-the-day gap and a golden-hour session — two bookings, or one with several extra hours. Two separate days give you rest and better light. ### Are wedding dresses and suits fine in Lombok villages? Yes — locals are used to pre-wedding couples, Indonesian ones included. What draws attention is bare shoulders and short hems while walking through the village to the fields. Wear a wrap or shirt on the way and take it off at the location. ### Are there entry fees or photo permits? The south-coast bays charge small parking or entry levies. In Tetebatu, villages sometimes ask for a small contribution or suggest a local guide to the best fields. We list every expected fee for your chosen spot before the day, so nothing is negotiated in a wedding dress. ### Can we add hair and make-up and a drone? Yes. The hair and make-up artist ($90) comes to your accommodation before the shoot; for Tetebatu that means a very early start. The drone add-on ($150) gives aerial frames of you in the paddies or above the bay, where airspace and the landowner allow. --- Senjalight · https://www.senjalight.com
