  • What are your working hours?

Hoi An Film (HAF) is open from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm daily, however, there are days when we work earlier or later.

  • Why should I choose you over other Studio?

Hoi An Film often promotes the most genuine and natural in photography, especially Hoi An wedding photography. We really hope that each person’s photos will be their own in the frame. So, for HAF, photography has always been something reverent and unchanging. We work with a high sense of responsibility and creative thinking ability. Enthusiastic and friendly team is always what HAF is aiming for. We always create fun, relaxed, no-fuss photography sessions. So, I recommend you to experience a shoot with HAF..

  • Do I need to make an appointment and how far in advance should I book?

There is always yes. We highly recommend that you book as soon as possible. For many customers we can get the schedule one year in advance. Why is that? Because we have an annual price increase, usually after the Lunar New Year. So we always encourage customers to book in advance to make sure they have the best price, and arrange the best team for customers.

  • The best time to take pictures in Hoi An?

There will be a lot of good times in Hoi An, and we believe in our time capture experiences over the long years in Hoi An. The most beautiful season of Hoi An is the sunny season, and bougainvillea glows red all over the road. The best time to take pictures in Hoi An is early in the morning, because the weather is pleasant and less crowded. However, if you cannot arrange the schedule. We still have support for night shots (but it should be determined that fewer photos are better than daytime ^^)

  • What places do we usually shoot?

We know which places to photograph and which not to. Understanding the location where we work is one of our strongest advantages. You can rest assured to come to Hoi An, and leave everything to Hoi An Film team.

Because that’s who you really are, the clothes will fit just right. That way the photo shoot will be much easier. If you have any questions about the costume, please inbox us immediately.
