Private Photoshoots with Professional Photographers in Siem Reap
Angkor Wat is an extraordinary setting for photography. Connect Cambodia works with experienced Siem Reap photographers who know the temples, the changing light and the best locations for creating beautiful photographs while you explore Angkor.
Our private photoshoots can be arranged as a dedicated photography session or planned around your wider visit to the temples. Choose a short session at Angkor Wat or spend longer photographing across several locations in Angkor Archaeological Park.
Whether you’re travelling alone, as a couple or with family, a private photoshoot gives you professional photographs of your time at Angkor without having to rely on phone photos, selfies or asking other visitors.
Your photographer will guide you through the session, helping with locations, backgrounds and natural posing while making the most of the changing light around the temples. Sessions can focus entirely on Angkor Wat, or longer photoshoots can include other temples and locations around Angkor Archaeological Park.
If you’re already planning a day exploring Angkor, your photoshoot can be incorporated into your wider temple itinerary, allowing you to combine professional photography with your visit rather than arranging a completely separate trip.
Choose from a 1-hour photoshoot at Angkor Wat or a longer session with time to visit and photograph at several temples. All packages are private and include an experienced local photographer, professional guidance throughout your session and individually edited high-resolution photographs.
For longer sessions, we’ll help plan the photography around your Angkor itinerary, taking into account the temples you’d like to visit, the best times for photography and the pace of your day.
Temple admission is not included with your photoshoot, and you’ll need a valid Angkor Pass to enter the temples. Read our Angkor Wat Ticket Guide for current prices, which pass to choose, and how to buy your ticket online.
We can also arrange private transport to Angkor Wat and between temples.
