Memories you’ll cherish for the rest of your life. Imagine sailing through the crystal-clear waters around Sumbawa Island. Suddenly, a gigantic figure emerges from the depths—a whale shark, majestic and graceful. Your heart starts beating faster, and emotions overwhelm you. This isn’t just a trip, it’s magic.
On the way, we’ll pass by the best locations on Lomboi Island—a cave with a beam of light cascading down, a grove of ancient trees, and the majestic Sedang Gileh Waterfall.

Just for fun
This package is for those who don’t love being in front of a camera — you just want to come along, see beautiful places with good people.

2-3 minutes of shooting at each location — enough for quality shots from every stop.
You’ll get 50-70 photos with light editing.
Photo lover
For those who enjoy being photographed but don’t use content for social media marketing. Before the trip, we’ll select reference photos to bring to life during the journey.

Expert
For those who run a business or build their brand online. Before the trip, we’ll plan a content grid of photos and videos. At each location we shoot both photo and video for reels.

What people say about working with me
Lyuba, professional journalist
Thank you, Ruslan, for this photo adventure. The format — photoshoot + trip through the heart of Bali — is incredible. I didn’t just want a shoot, I wanted emotions, new sensations that would stay with me and give me motivation and momentum for my goals. And I got them. Sure, I was exhausted after 11 hours, covered in mud, nearly drowned in a swamp under the vines, and froze at the end — but I’m happy to be tired like that. And the last waterfall was pure magic. It’s something cosmic — I look at the photos and can’t believe that’s me standing there. A photoshoot is always a small transformation. On Bali, it’s that times two. I want more!
Anna and Sergey
When you sent the raw photos — and it was impressively fast, which is rare for photographers — there were so many great shots we didn’t know which ones to choose. Almost all of them already looked so good we didn’t even know what to edit. We’re grateful for this truly memorable experience. We keep going back to the photos and remembering it with warmth.
Akosya
Your superpower is making people feel like models even with zero experience!
Olga
Hi Ruslan! Thank you for the photos and videos! You’re a true professional! It was my first professional photoshoot and thanks to you, everything turned out great! Wishing you success and many more clients!
