Why You Should Hire a Photographer When Traveling to Egypt?

For some of y’all (the Westerners) this may sound like something extravagant. Like, why would I spend money on getting myself photographed?

In the West they tend to hire one for massive events ONLY. Events like weddings, big birthdays, or for a newborn baby. Not for ourselves as such. Is this because In their culture getting oneself photographed just for the fun of It Is linked to being too “proud”, arrogant, even self-centered In some way?

Anyways, In the East we hire photographers for anything and everything!

• “Today Is a good hair-day, I’ll hire a photographer to document this.”
• “Wow, what a beautiful day for a picnic, let’s get a photographer In as well!”
• There’s nothing that’s considered too ‘Insignificant’ to be recorded In professional photos.

And let’s be honest here, no matter how gifted you are at taking selfies, one’s face covering the Colosseum Isn’t anywhere near professional quality. Let alone even a good travel photo now, Is It?!

So, what Is the point to hire a photographer when traveling, what are the potential perks? I shall tell you!

Hiring a photographer when traveling to Egypt might at first sound like a waste of money. But actually If you think about It for a second, you might see the light.

We all take photos when traveling, right? Some of us only travel to document the fact that they’ve stood next to the Sphinx without actually even seeing it themselves because all they focused on was taking THE photo. Know someone like this? Yeah, I thought so.

• Instead, hiring a photographer obviously ensures that you get professional photographic memories of your holiday.
• In addition, you get to actually see the sights, because it’s not your responsibility to ensure the best angles.

The biggest difference between a professional photographer and the quick snaps a fellow tourist takes of you at a famous sight is that In the professional photos you actually look good. And there will be more of you In the photo than just the tip of your forehead…

But what are the perks for you when you hire a photographer when traveling? Let’s take a look!

Photography is a brilliant job due to Its flexibility, and the interesting clientele. Any big city in Egypt is a fruitful place to hire a vacation photographer.

The photographer In Cairo ( TURISI ) is absolutely brilliant; he would give you very clear directions, make sure your hair looks good, and obviously knew the best spots and angles.

So, some basic perks that should give you an Idea why hiring a photographer when traveling might be a good idea:

1. Locals know the best places for photos and how to avoid the crowds
2. A professional photographer directs you on how to pose to get the best angles (doesn’t matter how awkward you are, they will make you look good)
3. The photos aren’t just your face, but also the sights, views and monuments
4. A photographer makes sure your hair Isn’t sticking to every direction, or that your skirt Isn’t stuck In your knickers
5. You can get your photos fully edited by a professional on the same go
6. The result Is a bunch of photos worthy of framing on a wall to remember that one vacation

Family vacations:

We all have them, stacks of photos from family vacations that were forcibly shown to everyone and then forgotten about. If you go on a family vacation that you really think is worth remembering, hire a photographer.

That way you get proper, edited photos that you can prop on your mantelpiece for everyone to admire when they visit your house.

Friendcation:

Is there anything better than a vacation with your friends? No, there Isn’t! So why not document this amazigness with the help of a professional that makes sure you ALL look good In the photos? Imagine going back to those memories through the photos when y’all are In your 60’s or 70’s.

And most Important, the guy behind the camera will know exactly how to use It! Maybe you have some great gear home too but… You won’t have to worry about carrying all that heavy stuff around while travelling, and you won’t have to ask random people around to take your photo with your own camera, they won’t even know what to do.

They know the best photo spots

Of course they do, they live here. And they know exactly where to go, at what time to shoot in what place, how to avoid the crowd, and what Is the best spot close to your hotel so you won’t have to travel 1 hour and half In the unknown trying to figure out what place would be the best for your vacation memories. Small plus, they can provide some good local tips on where to eat, where to go out or what to do.

They know how to get the best of you

You aren’t model and your family either. Most of us don’t know how to pose, and It’s normal. But this guy you are hiring, he is taking pictures of people just like you all the time and guess what? The people usually love the way they look on their pictures. Because he is doing that almost everyday, a photographer knows exactly how you have to stand to create beautiful natural and candid shots. He will guide you all the way and If you feel a bit weird at the beginning, trust me, your session will soon be converted into a fun game that the whole family will love to play! Because that’s the Idea, there Is no better way to make you look like enjoying your vacation than capturing moments of you having fun!
