Here are few tips for successful Las Vegas Strip Photo Tour. Whether you want some energetic engagement photos or unique portraits with your family, the Las Vegas Strip is the perfect location. Within a couple miles, you can go from standing beneath the Eiffel Tower at Paris Las Vegas to looking over the famous Grand Canal gondolas at the Venetian. The best part is that all these distinct locations are within walking distance. With that in mind, here are a few tips for you to make the most of your photo tour on Las Vegas Boulevard. 

Consider the popular spots: What’s your favorite location on the Strip? In addition to the aforementioned Eiffel Tower and Grand Canal, there are several other popular locations. These include the Bellagio Fountains, Welcome to Las Vegas Sign, statues at Caesars Palace, Mirage Volcano and more. There are also dozens of famous neon signs and landmarks that look great in the background, such as the High Roller and Stratosphere Tower.

Know the local schedule: Vegas is a 24-hour town, which means you can have your Strip photo session at almost any time. No matter when you shoot, whether it’s day, dusk or night, you can get great images. However, it’s important to keep in mind certain high-volume travel days and the local climate. Also, certain attractions such as the Bellagio Fountains only go off at certain scheduled times.

Stop at some less popular locations: There’s a lot of interesting nooks and crannies within the Strip’s 5 miles. Don’t be afraid to explore some photo options at some less popular areas where crowds will be much thinner. Places like escalators, sign posts and side alleys often make for the best photos.

Dress accordingly: Even though these attractions are conveniently close together, Strip photo tours can involve a lot of walking. That’s why you should always bring a pair of good walking shoes. Ladies who want to wear high-heals should also bring a bag with a change of footwear. While you’re at it, pack a light jacket in case it gets cold or windy at night.

Be ready for some crowds: Truth be told, you and your photo entourage won’t be the only people on the Strip. If you’re dressed for a wedding or engagement session, be prepared to hear a lot of “congratulations” and other comments. The best approach is to feed off this energy. If you prefer some more private areas, your photographer will be able to accommodate you with some “secret” spots.

Do a pre-shoot walk-through: If you have the opportunity, walk the Strip before your session and make a shot list. Even if you’re just out having fun and exploring, keep some photo op ideas in mind. If you don’t have time to do a walk through, don’t worry. Exceed Photography is one of the most seasoned Strip photo tour companies in Las Vegas. We know some of the best Vegas photo locations.
