Go behind the scenes of tourism photography!
Tourism photography offers a multitude of different possibilities and services. There are many reasons why a tourist organization might call on the services of a photographer, from reporting on an accommodation service, to showcasing a region, to staging a leisure area.
Like all specialties, this field requires certain skills, precautions and organizational abilities of its own. Photo 911 has acquired a certain amount of experience in the sector over the last few years, which we hope to share with you in this article.
Humanity and emotion at the heart of photography!
Tourism appeals to notions of pleasure, relaxation, leisure and disconnection. In short, anything that might take a person away from their daily routine for a few days or weeks. Whether it’s a period of great rest or, on the contrary, of intense activity. One thing’s for sure: when you go on vacation, you need to experience something new, and above all, you need to feel a sense of satisfaction that you won’t find anywhere else.
These include the pleasure of finding yourself in an ultra-comfortable cocoon in an unusual location, or being able to devote 100% of your time to your family. And all this translates into emotions and sensations.
The photographer’s role is to capture as accurately as possible all those little or big clues that evoke the happiness of a person on vacation. But it’s not enough to discreetly photograph people on vacation.
Image rights
Everyone has the right to privacy, it’s a fundamental notion. This is especially true when you’re on vacation. It’s totally understandable if someone refuses to be photographed when they’re resting or with their family. Other solutions must be found, and there is one that has proved its worth, although it requires particular rigor on the part of both customer and photographer.
If you can’t photograph people without their consent, then you have to be able to ask for it. Going directly to holidaymakers and asking them to take part in the report might work in some cases, but there are certain constraints. Firstly, this technique would cause a certain amount of inconvenience; secondly, the number of people who would accept would be relatively low; and thirdly, there’s a big risk that no one would agree, jeopardizing the service. This technique should be avoided, especially as the choice of extras (yes, there is a selection to be made) is limited. The best solution is to recruit extras beforehand. Ideally, we’d like to recruit professionals, but when that’s not possible, we turn to those around us.
Customer image
Like any company or organization, a tourism business has its own image and, above all, its own world. This must be respected. A customer may have chosen to position himself in a particular segment, and everything the photographer captures must reflect this choice. This includes the services highlighted, the visual identity of the photographs, the attitude of the extras in the images, and even their direct selection.
The best solution is to clearly define with the customer what is optimal and, above all, what is forbidden. Let’s take the example of a company positioned in a high-end segment: it will try to avoid representing activities with a “popular” connotation, or will prefer a “CSP +” family, as this is its exact target.
Organizing a tourist photo service
The key word is anticipation! The last thing you want is to be caught short by the unexpected. A printed briefing to carry with you at all times is essential. This will include a detailed schedule of the various photo sessions and, above all, a detailed and realistic set of specifications. Every trip, whether international or local, must be planned in advance. You don’t want to find yourself lost with a family of extras without knowing exactly what to do. It also requires careful coordination between you and the customer. You have to think about the heart of the performance, even if it means imagining it precisely in your head. For example, if you need to photograph a family moment around a table, you need to think about the location, its availability, the furniture, the decorative food, the family, the placement of that family, the style of dress, the time of shooting, etc. … The more you think about the details, the better your session will go. Having a local contact is ideal whenever possible.
But there’s always an element of the unexpected. Even with perfect organization, it can still happen that you’re caught out by the weather, by difficult conditions, by an extra who doesn’t turn up, etc. In this case, your ability to deal with such situations will be put to the test. For example, if no other solution is available, you may need to recruit people directly on site. However, we advise you to skip a planned session as little as possible: even if the ideal conditions are not met, it’s better to take the photos anyway.
Conclusion!
Tourism photography is more than just travel photography. It’s not just the landscape photography even though it occupies part of it. Most customers will want to bring life to their image, and this means bringing their target directly into their communications. Staging with extras is therefore necessary in many cases. The key is to think of every detail that may or may not appear in the picture on the big day.
