Resort photography is a quiet con. The images have to feel spontaneous, and they are anything but. LUX* in Mauritius wanted the version of their property a guest remembers, not the one a floor plan describes.
So you chase the light around the day. Early for the empty beach, midday for the colour of the water, golden hour for the rooms. You wait for a breeze to move a curtain the right way, and you shoot the small detail that says someone cared. The way a table is set. The angle of a lounger.
[ROY: what was the deliverable, a brand refresh, a campaign, booking imagery? And the year?]
