Itinerary
Day 1
Two-hour guided photography session through central Madrid. Meet at Plaza Mayor; the session moves to Palacio Real, Templo de Debod for sunset, and finishes with a short walk through the central streets.
Meet & Intro — Plaza Mayor
Meet your photographer at Plaza Mayor for a quick introduction, confirm outfit choices, and a brief posing and camera-preference check before starting the walk.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 5 minutes early and wait by the equestrian statue of Philip III to be easy to find.
- Wear comfortable shoes; the session includes walking on cobblestones and short standing poses.
- Keep essential items (phone, small water bottle) in a secure pocket or small bag to avoid distractions during shots.
Photo session — Palacio Real (Calle de Bailén s/n)
Move to the pedestrian areas around the Royal Palace for framed architectural portraits and candid shots. Photographer will direct poses and also capture natural moments using palace facades and nearby gardens as backdrops.
Tips from local experts:
- Expect occasional tourists; position shots to minimize background clutter (use shallow depth-of-field if needed).
- If you have a small prop (scarf, hat), use it for a few frames to add movement to photos.
- There are public restrooms inside the nearby Palacio Real visitor areas if needed before the next stop.
Sunset / Golden-hour session — Templo de Debod (Calle Ferraz 1)
Photograph at Templo de Debod during sunset for warm light and panoramic views — this is the special romantic moment of the tour. The photographer will capture silhouette and backlit portraits and guide poses for dramatic, golden-hour images.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive to the viewing terraces a few minutes before the scheduled time to secure the best angles.
- For sunset shots, avoid white clothing that can blow out highlights; follow earlier outfit suggestions from the photographer.
- Be mindful of other visitors on the terraces; the photographer will select quieter angles but keep voices low to respect others.
Wrap-up walk & final shots — Puerta del Sol / central streets
Finish with a relaxed walk through central streets and Puerta del Sol for a final set of candid street-style photos and a quick review of next steps for photo delivery and edits.
Tips from local experts:
- If you need a quick touch-up, use the nearest café restroom before final shots; ask the photographer for a recommended nearby option.
- Keep valuables close during the walk through busy central areas; use a cross-body bag or zipped pocket.
- Confirm how and when you’ll receive the edited photos during the wrap-up so there’s no confusion after the tour.
