How are we different?

Although you always wanted to explore the untouched nature, it is always hard to take care of all the details, time and logistics that it involves, and for those reasons we do the following:

  • Preselect locations beforehand;
  • Get the model(s) to Portugal or São Tomé e Principe;
  • Arrange accommodation for everyone involved;
  • Plan for meals for you and the models;
  • Schedule your shoots;
  • Provide transportation.

TEAMWORK, STUNNING LOCATIONS, COLLECTIVE PASSION FOR OUR JOBS.

What is different about São Tomé e Principe?

Experience the magic of Africa, at these green pristine islands in the Atlantic Ocean. A unique destination for stunning photo enrichment!

  • Portuguese speaking nation, allowing proximity to interactions and good communication;
  • Unique photographic spots: from extreme wild vegetation, sandy and rocky beaches, abandoned villages taken over by the forest and time, historic hotels or Roças (old Portuguese cocoa farms, most of them abandoned);
  • Clear turquoise ocean water, 24 degrees of water temperature, untouched wilderness, orange earthy tones and mind bendingly beautiful nature;
  • Friendly population with a safety record, making it very safe for a foreign walking around relaxed and unpreoccupied;
  • Colorful african cultural heritage.

SOCIAL RESPONSABILITY

The photographic experience we provide at Plankton Photo Events only makes sense if we have some direct positive contribution to local communities, their institutions and their participatory agents.

The crystalline beauty of the ocean, the vast and diverse untouched nature, the diversity of life, requires and deserves that we, as an institution contribute to its preservation, and so that future generations can continue to enjoy this unique place.

By participating in our photographic events, you are simultaneously contributing to the preservation of the unique characteristics of this paradise on earth.
