Personal Travel Photographers on the Rise

If you think the notion of hiring professional photographers to record the wedding proposalwas way too extravagant If you think that’s a bit extreme, then you’re probably not the right person to be an individual photographer for your vacation. However, that shouldn’t be a problem since it appears that there are plenty of individuals who want to have their family or romantic trips documented by a professional.

As per The Wall Street Journal increasing numbers of hotels and resorts are providing photography sessions to document guests’ travel experiences. “Travelers are looking to capture memorable moments without stressing about flash or focus. They’d like more sophisticated images to upload to social media. They also realize that even the iPhone could not be able to capture the perfect skiing or surfing success.”

It’s great to see that we live in an Instagramed world, some are starting to realize that certain iPhone photographs aren’t really great. However, many people like snapping photos while on vacation and vacation, so “focus as well as flash” aren’t a huge deal. For photographers who aren’t skilled getting a decent family photo while traveling is a good idea. In 2010 Walt Disney World started selling the $350, one-hour “Enhanced Portrait Session” which includes retouching and the creation of a personalized photo book. The cost of spending a few hundred dollars for vacation photos may sound to be a lot however it does come with a bonus: you are able to explore in the Epcot theme park prior to when it opens to all guests.

Maybe more annoying to your Facebook pals such as couples’ packages such as that of “Romance” and “Together” packages provided by resorts in areas like Bora Bora and Jumby Bay, where you can record every hand-held walk along the beach or a hammock-making sessions. The cost of the Together Package in Jumby Bay starts at just $10,500 to stay seven days.

Although it can be a bit annoying to go through friends’ photos of their vacation that appear like they could be an Sandal’s Resort ad, this possibility is a good thing for photographers. A few independent photographers who are freelance for weddings and adventure are beginning to offer photographs of vacation, recognizing them as a profitable side hustle.
