CHIJMES
A restored convent from the 1850s, now a walled dining enclave built around a Gothic chapel, arched colonnades and a lawn that feels a world away from the traffic outside.

Mornings are quiet enough to work the arches without anyone wandering into frame.

Shooting proposal photos in Singapore
It depends on the spot. Public streets and sidewalks usually don't, while many parks, gardens, and landmarks require a permit for professional sessions. Each location above notes what we found on permits — confirm the current rules and any fee with the venue or city before you book.
Golden hour — the hour after sunrise or before sunset — flatters almost every location, and each spot above lists the light that works best there. Early morning also means thinner crowds at the popular ones.
Snappr pricing is flat and set before you book, with no travel or editing surprises. Most sessions run one to two hours; you can see current rates and what each tier includes on the pricing page.
Pick your date and shoot type and we match you with a vetted local photographer who shoots in Singapore. Booking takes a couple of minutes, and you can reschedule for free if plans change.
