Family & Group
on Fulidhoo
Candid-first sessions that work with kids, grandparents, and friend groups. We shoot loose and playful, then gather the classic all-together frames. Photographed on Fulidhoo, Vaavu Atoll, by locals who know the island's best light.
Fulidhoo is the northernmost inhabited island of Vaavu Atoll, a sliver of sand about 675 by 200 metres with around 400 residents, 56 km south of Male.
Planning a family photoshoot on Fulidhoo? The island sits about 56 km from Malé in Vaavu Atoll, roughly 70 minutes by speedboat. It has a designated bikini beach, so swimwear frames are possible on the tourist stretch. Tell us your dates and we'll schedule your family photoshoot around Fulidhoo's golden hour.

How it looks
Family & Group on Fulidhoo: quick answers
We shoot loose and playful first (running, splashing, building sand) and gather the classic all-together frames when everyone is warmed up. Sessions are paced around the kids, not a shot list.
Early morning is often best with small children: softer light, cooler air and empty beaches. Late afternoon golden hour works well for older kids and groups.
Speedboat from Malé in 70 minutes (~$40), or the public ferry (Tue, Thu, Sun, 210 min). If you're already staying on Fulidhoo, 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 Fulidhoo session around it and move between jetty, beach and palm lines as the light changes.
