Golden Days: your photographer for the day
A Golden Day goes wherever your day goes on Phuket, and your photographer travels with you in your car, taxi, coach or boat. You tell us where and when it starts and finishes, and those times set the price: a flat price for a band of hours, which are the hours your photographer works.
The Golden Day
฿19,500
5 to 8 hours · 200 edited photos · gallery in 5–7 days
The Golden Day Plus
฿22,900
9 to 10 hours · 250 edited photos · gallery in 5–7 days
Past 10 hours, each hour or part of an hour is ฿3,500 more. A Golden Day needs 2 days’ notice.
Add-ons and fees
Everything here is optional and priced on its own, and it’s added to your total before you pay. You can add most of it later from your booking page, at the same prices.
Keep your gallery forever
฿190
Your online gallery normally closes after 90 days. With this it stays open for good, so you can download your photos any time.
Weather guarantee
฿350
If rain is forecast, move your shoot to another date or time for free.
You can move it once, any time up to 2 hours before we meet you. Without it, a shoot cancelled on the day is charged in full.
Same-day delivery
฿1,500
Get all your edited photos on the day of your shoot, instead of waiting 3–5 days.
On The Mini Session, The Island Story and The Full Glow.
Next-day delivery
฿1,500
Get all your edited photos within 24–48 hours, instead of waiting 5–7 days.
On a Golden Day.
All your RAW files
฿2,900
Besides your edited photos, get every photo we took, straight from the camera and not edited. Keep them all, or edit some yourself.
RAW files open in photo software such as Lightroom.
Extra hour
฿3,500
Make your shoot one hour longer.
The Full Glow only. Book it now: on the day, every shoot ends on time.
Hair & makeup
฿3,900 a person
Our makeup artists come to your hotel or villa and do your hair and makeup before your photos: a photoshoot look, not bridal.
฿5,900 if it’s just one person. For up to 4 people, on The Mini Session, The Island Story and The Full Glow, and not for a shoot booked for today.
About an hour per person, one after another, finishing as your photographer arrives.
Same-day booking
฿2,500
For a short session booked for today in Phuket. It shows as its own line in your total before you pay.
What the price doesn’t cover
- On a Golden Day, your photographer’s seat, tickets and fares on the day, and their fare back to where your day started.
- A day that ends off Phuket, in Krabi or Khao Lak. We quote it rather than book it online.
- On a short session, the trip between spots: it comes out of your shoot time, and any car is yours to arrange.
- Hair and makeup on a Golden Day. It isn’t sold online, so ask us on WhatsApp.
- Prints and albums. Your photos come as full-size files, ready to print wherever you like.
How paying works
Prices are in Thai baht and they are what you pay: no commission, service charge or editing fee on top. You pay in full when you book, on Stripe’s own pages, so your card details never reach us, and a numbered invoice follows by email.
Cancel 72 hours or more ahead for 90% back, 24 hours or more for 50%. Cancelling and the weather, in full
What others in Phuket charge
We read the prices other photographers and booking sites publish on 29 September 2026. Some photographers in Phuket don’t publish a price at all, so these ranges come from the ones that do, for an hour’s shoot. We’ve left the names out: prices change, and the range is what’s useful.
Local photographers, booked direct
฿5,000 to ฿7,000 an hour
30 to 60 edited photos for the hour.
Delivered in 7 to 30 days.
Travel off Phuket usually costs extra, and with some the transfer to the spot is yours to pay.
Photography booking sites
about ฿10,900 to ฿14,300 an hour
US$325 to US$425, with 30 to 35 edited photos, delivered within 4 to 5 working days.
Travel on some routes, entry fees and extra time are charged on top.
Tour sites
from about ฿4,200 an hour
Local photographers listed on tour and activity sites, with 30 to 50 edited photos in 2 to 7 days.
Priced for a group of a set size.
Premium studios
฿11,500 to ฿12,000 an hour
20 to 30 edited photos for the hour.
Travel to Khao Lak, Krabi or the islands can cost extra.
For an hour, The Mini Session is ฿8,200, with 40 edited photos in 3–5 days. That’s more than a local photographer booked direct or a photographer on a tour site, and less than a photography booking site or a premium studio.
Booked direct, a local photographer gives you 30 to 60 edited photos for the hour, and takes 7 to 30 days to deliver them.
For 2 hours, The Island Story is ฿8,900 (a launch price until 15 October) with 70 edited photos, and local photographers charge ฿8,000 to ฿12,500 for the same time, with 60 to 100 edited photos where they say how many.
Where a site gives its price in US dollars, the baht figure is at 33.59 to the dollar, the rate on 29 September 2026, and these ranges are rounded to the nearest ฿100.
What changes the price
- How long you book. Each session is a flat price for its hours, and the longer ones give you more photos.
- How many places. Your hotel or villa and then a beach nearby is The Full Glow; Phuket Old Town is a shoot of its own, up to 3 hours; a day that goes further is a Golden Day.
- Getting between them. On a short session it comes out of your shoot time; on a Golden Day you also cover your photographer’s fares.
- Not the time of day. Any start from 06:00, finishing by 21:00, costs the same. We suggest the hour before sunset for the light, so book early if you want it.
- What you add. Each add-on is priced on its own, and nothing is added unless you tick it.
- Booking for today. A short session booked for today adds ฿2,500; a Golden Day needs 2 days’ notice.
