Photography tips for travelling

Would you like to take unique photos during your travels but don’t know how? Let’s explore the world’s stunning locations together, those magical places where you are guaranteed to be able to take breathtaking photos. In our photography tips article, we guide you through several locations. We explore the beaches of Miami, travel to downtown New York City in Manhattan, admire the streets of Paris, relax on the Croatian coast, party hard at the Tomorrowland festival in Belgium, peek into the bustling milieu of Madrid, and finish our adventure at the Vienna Christmas market. Join us today!

Miami Beach

Miami, the capital of Florida, is naturally a fortress of entertainment and relaxation. Here life truly slows down, and you find the tranquility that you probably don’t find on weekdays. Miami Beach is an excellent place for capturing vibrant sunsets and lively beach scenes. Use a polarizing filter to enhance the blue of the sea and the sky, and try long exposures to achieve a smooth, misty effect of the water. The best time for photography is early morning and sunset. This holds true for all beach photography.

Streets of New York

New York City’s iconic skyscrapers and bustling streets provide a solid foundation for urban photos. Try to shoot from high places to get a stunning panoramic view of the city. The area around Times Square and the Brooklyn Bridge especially offers great subjects for night photography, but of course, in the city that never sleeps, you will find countless streets or places that are unique in the world and thus you can truly create an urban mood in your photo. Tip! It’s worth visiting the Brooklyn Bridge early to avoid the huge crowds! At Times Square, this is impossible, no matter when you visit.

Paris’ romantic charm

Paris, the city of lights, offers ample opportunities for creating artistic and romantic photos. The views from the hills of Montmartre, or the bridges along the Seine, are particularly captivating. Don’t miss out on a classic shot of the Eiffel Tower, preferably with the city lights included in the composition. Any café you choose in Paris will surely capture the unmistakable energy of French cafés in your photo. One of our favorites was Cafe de Flore, which is rightly famous, but we couldn’t skip Ladurée either. Let yourself be carried by the energies, and your photo’s success is guaranteed.

Croatian coast

The Croatian coast, with its crystal-clear waters and rocky shores, provides a wonderful backdrop for nature-related photos. Sunrise or sunset is the ideal time for photography when the sunlight bathes the landscape in gold. To match the colors of the sky and water, as well as the style of the surrounding buildings, boldly choose vibrant blue or patterned blue sets for your photos!

Tomorrowland — Belgium

Tomorrowland, the world-renowned electronic music festival, offers an exciting theme for vivid and dynamic crowd scenes. Experiment with slow shutter speeds to capture the movement of the dancing crowd, and use low light to record the stage lights and spectacular fireworks. The festival’s colors, attractions, and energy are yours to use, and you’ll get truly impulsive photos. Use these tips at any other festival as well, but don’t forget one thing. Dare to push the boundaries, and boldly wear outfits in which you feel good, but might not typically wear on a regular day. Music festivals are about freedom, dance, and liberating energies – and about you!

Historic buildings of Madrid

Madrid’s lively streets and historic buildings are perfect for capturing urban and cultural scenes. The hustle and bustle of Gran Vía or the peaceful landscapes of Retiro Park are worth capturing, each showing a different face of the Spanish capital.

Vienna Christmas scenes

Vienna during Christmas is a fairy-tale location, ideally suited for creating holiday-themed photos. In addition to capturing the lights of the Christmas markets and the decorated streets, don’t forget to explore the interiors of the famous Viennese coffee houses — the perfect table complement is a wonderful Vintage World rose boxes. We hope that the above photography tips will help you take stunning photos at various locations around the world. Timing, a pinch of creativity, and some planning will be key to successful photography. We look forward to seeing your fairy-tale pictures, don’t forget to tag us on Instagram or even on TikTok videos.
