## Media Notes
- ALL photos are **portrait orientation** (phone camera / WhatsApp). No landscape shots available.
- Website design must account for portrait-only gallery (crop to landscape for hero, or use portrait grid)
- **2 videos** (both portrait, 720p): sailfish release action — excellent for hero background video or gallery
- Many photos show happy US tourists — good for social proof / testimonial sections
- Guide appears in several photos (young man, tattoos, caps) — likely the captain/owner
- "Gunslinger" branding visible on hull in several fishing photos
