What Happens If It Rains on Your Seoul Photoshoot?
A clear answer before you pay, so a forecast doesn't ruin your trip.
Weather is the most common worry when booking a photoshoot during a trip. Here's exactly how it works with Ashlee Seoul Snap.
The short answer
If the weather makes your session unsafe or seriously affects the results, you can move to a new date once or switch to a backup route. Rain alone doesn't automatically mean a full refund.
Light rain vs. heavy rain
Light drizzle or cloudy skies. Sessions usually go ahead. Overcast light is soft and flattering, and wet stone and reflections can look beautiful.
Heavy rain, storms, snow or ice. If conditions are unsafe or would seriously spoil the photos, Ashlee will contact you to discuss a new date or a backup route.
Your options when the weather is bad
- Move to a new date once, if there's time left in your trip and availability allows.
- Switch to a backup route that works better in the conditions.
- If Ashlee cancels, or the session can't go ahead because a venue closes, you can choose a full refund or a new date.
Planning around the forecast
- Avoid booking on your last day if you can. An earlier date leaves room to reschedule.
- Check the forecast a few days before, and message Ashlee if it looks bad.
- Summer brings the rainy season, often from late June into July, with heavy showers and humidity.
How to make a rainy-day shoot work
- Clear umbrellas look lovely in photos.
- Darker shoes hide splashes.
- Overcast light is soft on faces. No squinting.
