How To Get Insta-worthy Photos in Bangkok

How To Get Insta-worthy Photos in Bangkok, Thailand

If you’re traveling to Thailand and wondering how to get Insta-worthy photos in Bangok- I’ve got you covered! Whether you’re a blogger or just looking to up your Instagram-game, there are some incredible (and affordable!!) photographers in Bangkok you can book through Airbnb experiences.

Airbnb Experiences

I adore Airbnb. I use it constantly when I travel because I love the local vibe it provides. Don’t get me wrong, there are some hotels and hostels I ADORE staying at but often times, I find hotels to be sterile and just the same in every city. Hotels can feel bland and less “authentic” to me. I like getting to see how the locals live, meeting a host, and staying in an actual neighborhood while traveling.

Which is why I was even more excited when they launched Airbnb experiences! It’s the perfect way to meet up with someone who knows the area well. Some incredible connections I’ve made abroad have come from booking an Airbnb experience with local who winds up becoming a friend!

It’s especially great if you’re traveling solo and would love to meet someone to show you around. And even better if you don’t want to only take travel selfies! I first used Airbnb experiences last year in Poland and was so thankful for the discovery.

Bangkok Airbnb Experiences

Bangkok has a great selection of photo Airbnb experiences! The following are ones I have personally done and highly recommend.

The 1970’s Style Bangkok Photoshoot

Your photographer, Tommy, will pick you up in his Mercedes Benz and drive to you to some great local spots to shoot. He is FANTASTIC. This guy is a brilliant photographer and will have you feeling like a million bucks. The whole shoot, he was hyping me up, giving me compliments and helping me to feel totally comfortable. Even if you aren’t used to having your picture taken, Tommy will make you feel at ease. Before the experience is over, you might find yourself cruisin’ the streets of Bangkok, blaring Beyonce and singing along together! And did I mention he’s done an intern with Japan Vogue? Yeahhhhhh, he’s pretty awesome.

The experience lasted over 2 hours and was just me! Although it could have up to 4 people. I was sent all the photos from the shoot and the price was $133.

Neon Lights Portrait Photoshoot

Your photographer Varin is a total pro. He knows exactly where to go and how to help you pose. Not only that but Varin knows where all the best neon signs are in Bangkok and uses a small mirror under his camera to get a really unique and interesting effect with the lights. By holding the mirror under his camera, he reflects the neon sign above you to appear below you in the photo as well. It gives the photo a very metropolis, Hollywood feel and really emphasizes the neon vibes of the city.

The shoot was one hour long and we got to pick 30 shots for him to edit and send us. There was one other guest on the experience with me. At first I thought I would have preferred a private experience but it was fun to meet another traveler! We joked, cheered each other on and swapped sunglasses in a few pictures. The cost of this experience was $43.
