Photograph your holiday: From family portraits to local landmarks, here's how to take and shoot brilliant holiday snaps / pictures. Holidays are a tricky subject to consider when it comes to photography. This is due to the huge range of opportunities and subjects available to capture in order to preserve your memories.
The first thing to consider with this type of photography is the kit you are going to have with you. Travelling means carrying a smaller amount of kit, and so only taking the necessary items can not only help with baggage allowance, but can also leave more time to concentrate on getting great shots rather than choosing the right equipment.
The typical week in the sun might contain beaches and bright sunny scenes, but it can just as easily include things such as hiking trips and extreme sports. Depending on your hobbies, this vast range of subjects means that you have to be prepared to capture anything. To do this, you’ll need to know
the ins and outs of your camera. From vast open scenes, to family portraits and even creative shooting, being ready to capture everything that tells the story of your trip can ensure your holiday photo album is one to treasure for many years to come.
People.
Take memorable captures of your family and friends.
Make the most of your time amay and shoot your best-ever portraits in any Location at home or abroad Capturing your friends and family is a big part of any holiday. You
want to be able to preserve memories and get shots of everyone having a good time, so being prepared to capture them will ensure you get plenty of excellent photos to remember your time together.
Portraits of your loved ones are perhaps some of the most important shots you’ll capture, as well as making up the vast majority of many holiday albums. As well as the more common posed shots, it’s important to consider that a lot of your best photos will be candid moments that require you to be quick to grab the shot, as well as those times when you’ll want to be in the frame too.
Portraits can be shot at any location, with different backgrounds, activities and settings, so ensuring you have mastered the settings you need will help you to capture some great summer memories.
Shutter speed
lf your camera has shutter priority mode, use this to set a fast shutter speed (around 1/250) to freeze action. You select the speed and the camera chooses the other settings.
Continuous AF
By changing from a Single Point Autofocus to Continuous or Tracking Autofocus, you’ll be able to follow any moving subject and keep them in focus, ready to take the shot.
Burst mode
By using a high-speed continuous shooting mode or a Burst mode, you can easily fire off a number of photos in quick succession to ensure you get the perfect shot.
ISO
To ensure you can shoot fast enough, boosting your ISO will make your camera’s sensor more sensitive and will help to keep the shooting speed high enough to capture the action.

Take better photos of local landmarks and scenery
Landmarks are a common shot to take when you’ve visiting a new place, and are an easy subject to capture with some simple tips. Try
visiting the more popular locations at quieter times of the day. Not only will this give you more room to capture the shot, but it will ensure the scene isn’t cluttered with other people taking the exact same photo.
The local scenery can be another great subject to shoot effectively, and one that can be captured in any way you like. From wide open vistas to the little details of everyday life in the local towns and cities.
You could also try including people to give a sense of scale to your subjects, shoot from a range of different angles and visit the same locations at night to give your images a completely new look.
Underwater Pictures
Get creative underwater for impressive portraits
Underwater shooting is now simpler than ever with the development of tough waterproof compact cameras. Getting great shots of wildlife or friends and family in the depths is as easy as any other shot, and can add a touch of creativity to your memories.
Simply switching over to your underwater scene mode makes you ready to snap away. Try capturing underwater portraits of the kids or even break out the video functions for those action moments.
For those without one of the new tough cameras, there are lots of waterproof cases available to help you turn any compact into an underwater camera
