Travel Photography How To

Travel photographer Pierre T. Lambert is currently in French Polynesia and during his trip he booked himself on 4x4 off-roading tour with a group of tourists. Seems like it would be difficult to shoot attractive travel photos when you're on a crowded touristy tour, right? Not so!

This will probably surprise you, but for someone writing about the advantages of heading out with one camera and one lens, I mostly don't do that. As a professional photographer who emphasizes travel images and loves to apply special techniques, I most often carry a rather full kit of lenses and a back-up DSLR, plus filters and a tripod.

Want to take your landscape photography to the next level? Photographer Pierre T. Lambert has some great tips for you, which he says are “unusual” but just might “change your life.”

During a weekend jaunt to Dublin, Ireland, Shutterbug reader Andy O’Farrell had planned to enjoy a couple of days shooting around the city. However, a monkey wrench had been thrown into his plans courtesy of Mother Nature.

We share a lot of photography tips videos by travel photographer Pierre T. Lambert but today’s tutorial is a bit different from the rest. First of all, it has a very provocative title: “Why Your Photo Suck – And Mine Too.”

It happens to all of us as photographers. We suddenly stop feeling inspired and even are, dare we say, a bit bored with shooting photos.

Given skill, experience, and the awesome capabilities of today’s gear, what else is it that makes a great travel photographer?
