How to Take Better Vacation Photos: Tips From An Expert Travel Photographer

Click here to watch video report on taking photos

Tommy Hilfiger NEW YORK, Aug 4, 2005/ NS/ --- Summer travel season is in full swing - and the best way to remember a vacation is through photographs. But there’s a big difference between taking pictures and taking good photos. You don’t need an expensive camera to take great vacation shots, just a better idea of how to take them.

Milton Fullman is a professional travel photographer and President of the Society of American Travel Writers. He recommends the following tips when taking vacation photos:

  • Shoot in the morning or late afternoon. During those times, daylight is softer and more pleasing. In the middle of the day, the light is harsher and shadows in your photos will be deeper.

  • Use your photos to tell a story. Use the first shot to set the scene, then use the following shots to get different reactions.

  • Get creative. Anyone can take a straight-on shot. Look for new and different angles that offer a more appealing perspective.

  • Make your shots active. Have your friends or family involved in an activity, not just standing in a stiff pose.
