Angkor Wat Photoshoot
Angkor Wat Couples Photoshoot
This Angkor Wat couples photoshoot was a two-hour photography session at Angkor Wat with a couple who wanted meaningful images to celebrate a special moment in their lives. We started at sunrise, enjoying the soft morning light and atmosphere around the temple grounds. The conditions were slightly overcast, but that actually helped create soft, cinematic tones throughout the shoot.
This couple were celebrating their engagement with a photoshoot at Angkor Wat. I was happy to oblige.
The gallery shows the highlights from this photoshoot – the clients received over 100 high resolution images to download.

This Angkor Wat photoshoot was captured at sunrise, using the soft golden light and quiet morning atmosphere to create natural, intimate images. The couple explored several iconic viewpoints around the temple complex, allowing for a mix of wide cinematic shots and close, candid moments. Photographing at Angkor Wat at this time of day gives a unique blend of colour, depth, and calmness that’s perfect for couples, solo travellers, and anyone wanting meaningful images in one of Cambodia’s most famous locations. This gallery showcases what a dedicated Angkor Wat photoshoot can look like when it’s planned around the light, the setting, and the people being photographed.

Intimate Knowledge of light and timing in Angkor
Light changes dramatically throughout the day, and understanding light, timing, and crowd patterns is essential for creating truly memorable images. Each photoshoot is carefully planned around the best times and locations within the Angkor complex, taking into account sunrise light, quieter areas, and seasonal conditions. This local knowledge allows for a more enjoyable experience and more considered photographs, even at one of Cambodia’s most visited sites.
