Shooting Tips For Travel And Street Photography In Japan

Follow Filmmaker and Photographer Sal D'Alia on a short trip to Japan, where he guides the audience through storytelling. His first stop begins in Tokyo, demonstrating how he prepares for a street photography shoot day, giving us an overview of his preferred travel gear and insight into his style with techniques for anyone starting out. He explores touristic spots such as the Sensoji Temple and gives us tips on how we can shoot through what some may say is a difficulty, the crowd. He moves location midway the vlog to the Achi Village in the Nagano Prefecture, where he steers us into drone shots exhibiting several unrecognized locals and environmental views of the Tenryu River. With minimal equipment and a short timeframe to explore, we hope that this vlog was helpful in giving you valuable photo tips and tricks.
