Photoshoot in Taipei for ~$130
Another one for our “photoshoots while travelling” series 🤍
This time, we found our photographer through Xiaohongshu and sent her a few reference photos / vibes we wanted to recreate. She suggested meeting at Dongmen MRT and brought us around the nearby streets to capture the local Taipei street vibes we were looking for.
She was super friendly, guided us on poses throughout, and was happy to stop whenever we spotted props or little corners that meant something to us✨ As it was drizzling that mor/Taipei City ning, she even helped us place our bags on her opened umbrella to keep them clean. Such a thoughtful touch!
The 1–1.5h shoot was TWD 3300 (~SGD 130), paid in cash after the session. She also sent over a Google Drive link the very next day, and we got to select 10 photos for her to edit.
Try something different on your next Taiwan trip! A very fun way to remember Taipei through a different lens 📸
During my recent trip to Taipei, I decided to try a casual photoshoot to capture the essence of the city beyond typical tourist snapshots. I found a photographer through Xiaohongshu, who was not only professional but also incredibly friendly and accommodating. Meeting at Dongmen MRT, a convenient location, made our journey easy and allowed us to explore some of the city’s charming streets, including the vibrant 永康街 area, which added an authentic local backdrop. One of the highlights of the session was how the photographer customized the shoot based on reference photos I shared and the vibes I wanted to recreate. Her guidance on poses made me feel comfortable and natural throughout the 1 to 1.5 hour shoot. Even though it drizzled lightly that morning, the photographer was thoughtful in keeping our belongings dry and choosing spots that complemented the soft weather. The package was affordable, costing around TWD 3300 (about SGD 130), and payment was made in cash after the shoot. The following day, I received a Google Drive link to select my favorite 10 photos to be professionally edited. This quick turnaround enhanced the overall experience. If you want to try something different on your Taiwan trip, booking a local street-style photoshoot like this is a fantastic idea. It captures the city’s charm through a personal and creative lens, making your travel memories unique and lasting.
