📸 Old San Juan Photo Shoot – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Where do we meet for the photo shoot?
We’ll meet in Plaza Colón in Old San Juan, near the “I ❤️ SJ” sign.
IMPORTANT:
Please do not go to the “I ❤️ PR” sign – that one is near the cruise ship terminals and several blocks away.
If you're using Uber, type in Plaza Colon or use this nearby address:
📍 409 Calle San Francisco, San Juan
I'm usually the only person standing around with camera gear – easy to spot!
What’s the best way to get there?
Traffic and parking can be tricky in Old San Juan, so plan ahead:
Taking an Uber or Taxi is the easiest option.
Driving yourself? Don't waste time hunting for street parking.
Instead, park at the Doña Fela Parking Garage:
📍 315 Calle del Recinto Sur, San Juan
It’s about an 8–10 minute walk to our meeting point and costs around $10.Warning: Parking tickets in Old San Juan are expensive:
Handicap zone without a permit: $1,000
Other no-parking zones: $750
What should I expect from the walk and locations?
We’ll cover multiple scenic spots, which means walking a few blocks through the colorful streets of Old San Juan.
Wear comfortable shoes – it’s not the time to break in new ones!
Prefer less walking? Let me know when we meet, and we can stick to beautiful but more accessible locations near Plaza Colón.
What should I bring or prepare for?
Weather: Puerto Rico is hot and humid. Expect heat, and sometimes short tropical rain showers.
Clothing: There are no nearby changing areas, so come dressed and ready.
Restrooms: May be several blocks away – please plan accordingly.
What happens if it rains?
Passing rain is common but usually brief. I’ll do my best to adjust the timing of your shoot if needed. Full rainouts are rare, but we’ll stay flexible!
