Itinerary and highlights
Get picked up from your accommodation in Swakopmund and head out to Moon Valley, about an hour into the Namib Desert. Along the way your photographer-guide will point out the landscape changing as you go. This is not your average boring transfer.
Once you're at Moon Valley, the real work starts. Your photographer will scout the best spots based on the light and scenery, and guide you through poses and angles so you actually look good in front of the camera (no awkward "just be natural" instructions here).
Between shots, you'll get the geological lowdown on how this lunar looking landscape was formed. Millions of years of erosion turned this into one of the most photographed spots in Namibia.
After the shoot, you're driven back to your accommodation in Swakopmund. Your edited photos will follow shortly after, delivered to your private online gallery and mobile app.
