What Your Photoshoot Could Look Like
1-Hour Session – A Quick, Focused Shot
This is ideal for solo travelers or those with prior experience in front of the camera. You’ll get one location and around 20 final images. It’s perfect if you just want a handful of well-composed shots without fuss. Expect to spend most of your time at a single, picturesque spot.
2-Hour Session – The Best Seller
This allows for 1-2 locations and roughly 30 images. It’s especially popular among couples or small groups. You’ll have enough time for some outfit changes and varied backdrops — think of it as a mini photo tour with enough flexibility for creativity.
3-Hour Session – For Larger Groups
If you’re traveling with friends, family, or want a more detailed portfolio, this option covers 6-10 people with about 40 images. Multiple locations and outfit changes become more feasible, and you’ll have a broader variety of pictures to choose from.
4-Hour Session – The Ultimate Cannon Beach Photo Day
Designed for groups of 12 or more, this comprehensive package includes 3-4 locations and around 50 images. It’s perfect if you want to explore different parts of the coast, capture multiple looks, or have a big celebration like a reunion or special event.
What to Expect During the Photoshoot

The experience is designed to be relaxed and fun. Your photographer will guide you through the process, helping you look natural and confident. Since the locations are customizable, you could have your shoot near iconic spots like Haystack Rock or explore lesser-known coastal nooks for unique shots.
The gallery, delivered within 14 days, will be private, and you’ll receive all your high-resolution images ready to print or share online. Many reviews highlight the professionalism of the guides and the stunning views they capture — users mention “amazing photo memories” and “beautiful scenery framing every shot.”
The Value of the Experience

While $208.76 per person might seem steep for some, it’s important to weigh it against the cost of hiring a photographer independently or trying to DIY with a smartphone. The quality, expertise, and convenience provided are considerable, especially when you consider the multiple images and locations covered in the package.
Notably, the private online gallery adds value by allowing easy sharing and printing. Plus, the flexibility to tailor your shoot means you’re not stuck with cookie-cutter photos. If you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply want professional images of your trip, this package offers a practical way to get high-quality results without the hassle of planning it yourself.
Logistics and Practicalities

Keep in mind that transportation isn’t included, so plan how you’ll get to your chosen locations — whether by rental car, rideshare, or your own vehicle. Entry fees aren’t included either, so if you plan to visit specific spots that charge admission, budget accordingly.
The activity is most suitable for travelers with good weather, as poor conditions could lead to cancellations or rescheduling. The full refund policy if canceled 24 hours in advance provides reassurance, especially if weather looks questionable.
Who Should Consider This Tour?

This experience is best suited for those who value professional-quality photos and want a personal, memorable keepsake from their trip. It suits solo travelers and influencers wanting portfolio shots, couples or families celebrating special moments, and large groups or event organizers looking for a comprehensive photo day.
If you’re someone who enjoys capturing authentic moments without the hassle of organizing your own photoshoot, this could be a perfect fit. Conversely, if you’re on a tight budget or prefer self-guided photography, you might find this option less appealing.
