Why choose couple photography in Florianópolis?
Most couples who book in Florianópolis picture a beach. The frame that says Floripa most clearly, though, is inland: the white dunes between Joaquina and the Lagoa da Conceição, open sand with the lagoon below and the hills beyond it. A couple session there is all light and space, with nothing in the background but the curve of the dunes, and in the right hour the lagoon catches the sunset.
Worth knowing about Florianópolis
The dunes sit in the Parque Natural Municipal das Dunas da Lagoa da Conceição, 706.76 hectares open to the public without restriction, and the lagoon lies west of their crest. A couple session there in December starts at about 18:20 for a sunset at about 19:08 over the water, while in June it starts before 16:45, so the time of year moves the whole session by more than 90 minutes.

FAQ — Couple photography in Florianópolis
Do we need a permit for a couple session on the Joaquina dunes in Florianópolis?
No. The Joaquina dunes are in the Parque Natural Municipal das Dunas da Lagoa da Conceição in Florianópolis, which the Prefeitura lists as open to the public without restriction. A couple session there keeps to open sand and leaves the vegetated parts of the dunes alone.
What time should a couple session on the Florianópolis dunes start?
About 45 minutes before sunset. On the Florianópolis dunes the sun sets over the Lagoa da Conceição at about 19:08 in late December and 17:27 in late June, so a couple session starts around 18:20 in summer and before 16:45 in winter.
