Solo / Portrait
on Dharavandhoo
Travelling solo or want portraits that aren't selfies? A relaxed one-on-one session around your island, from the jetty to the beach and the palms, in golden light. Photographed on Dharavandhoo, Baa Atoll, by locals who know the island's best light.
Dharavandhoo is Baa Atoll's gateway island, about 117 km north of Male, with roughly 1,000 residents and its own domestic airport, opened in 2012.
Planning a portrait photoshoot on Dharavandhoo? The island sits about 117 km from Malé in Baa Atoll, roughly 150 minutes by speedboat. It has a designated bikini beach, so swimwear frames are possible on the tourist stretch. The calmest seas and clearest skies typically run Jun–Oct. Tell us your dates and we'll schedule your portrait photoshoot around Dharavandhoo's golden hour.

How it looks

Yes. Tell us the look and formats you need (vertical crops, product in frame, multiple outfits) and we'll plan the session and delivery around it.
Speedboat from Malé in 150 minutes (~$65). If you're already staying on Dharavandhoo, we meet you there; we photograph guests on their own island.
Golden hour: roughly the last 60–90 minutes before sunset, and the first hour after sunrise. We schedule every Dharavandhoo session around it and move between jetty, beach and palm lines as the light changes.
