“Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.”
Dorothea Lange
Beach photography is one of the essential yet most mesmerizing things that you can do in life. Whether you’re an avid photographer or someone snapping pictures with your phone, it doesn’t matter. All you need is a camera and the perfect moment to spark the motivation in you. And what better place to do that than Myrtle Beach?
The abundance of vacation rentals at Myrtle Beach makes it one of the most pristine locations for photography. Here are three types of shots you can take at the beach even with a phone:
1. Sunset and sunrise
There are a lot of things that are famous about the horizon. It is said that as the sun goes down behind the water surface, a green flash emerges. Also at dawn and dusk there are times when the world around you turns golden orange. This is known as the golden hour. Photographs as these moments are simply incredible.
2. Time-lapses
You know what’s better than a still photo of the sunset or sunrise? A complete time-lapse. This is a series of photos taken at regular intervals. As they come together they show a long process in a short span. Time-lapses at the beach are just a thing of ultimate beauty and can easily shot with a smartphone these days.
3. Slo-mo
There are a lot of activities at the beach that can provide a great scene for slow motion videos. Examples can include jet-skis, flyboards or even surfers. Try shooting a close-up slow motion video of one of these activities and you will realize what we’re talking about.
You can only try it to believe it. And take our word for it, it will be an experience you won’t regret.
