8 Photography Tips for the Travel Photographer

1.   Get up early - As a photography rule, the best time for taking photographs is ‘Golden Hour’ that is one hour before sunset and one hour after sunrise. This time provides the best light for shooting and wonderful photography opportunities to the photographers. So wake up early, and capture some creative shots while other tourists are still sleeping

2.   Research - Do your homework well before heading to a particular location for shooting. Research about the place, find out historical places in that city, most visited places in the city. By doing a thorough research about the place, you will be able to plan your shoot wisely. 

3.   Explore your Gear - If you have bought a new camera or some other equipment for the photo shoot, then explore that camera or gear at home or in advance. Don’t waste your travelling time on learning features of your new camera set or equipment.

4. Right Lodging - Find out a hotel or lodge, that is located in the heart of the town and offers lot of photography opportunities. What can be better than staying in a room that offers amazing view for some great shots? 

5. Capture Locals - Capturing locals will make a great shot, learning how to greet in their local language will be a good idea when taking pictures of local people. Especially, take picture of locals dressed in their native attire. 

6. Travel Equipments - Do not take your entire studio with you. Carry only those equipments which are essential and easy to bring along while shooting like lenses, a mini tripod, extra memory, battery etc. 

7.  Explore the place - Photography is not only about taking pictures. Be versatile, enjoy the new place and explore the city life by trying local food, roaming in local markets, listen to local music, this all will give you a better understanding of the place and you will be able to connect with pictures in a better way.   

8.   Fresh approach - Get off the beaten path this means don’t show viewers the most expected pictures of a town or city like Thailand is famous for monks and everybody knows that. Try something new and fresh, share your own idea, find a fresh approach how you would like to interpret a particular location.
