Marrakech: Private Photoshoot in Marrakech

Travelers visiting Marrakech often seek ways to preserve their memories of this vibrant city beyond just snapshots on their phones. That’s where a private professional photoshoot can truly make a difference. This experience, offered by Travelkech, combines the magic of Marrakech’s colorful streets or luxurious riads with the skill of a seasoned photographer, resulting in a collection of beautifully retouched images.

What we particularly like about this experience is its flexibility—offering options to shoot in the bustling Medina or in the tranquil, elegant environment of a traditional riad. The fact that you get 100-150 professionally retouched photos at a very reasonable price makes it a tempting choice.

One potential consideration is that the price does not include transportation to the shoot locations, so planning your logistics is essential. Still, this tour is especially well-suited for couples, families, or solo travelers who want authentic, high-quality images that capture Marrakech’s essence in a style that feels both personal and professional.

Meeting your photographer

The experience begins with a meet-up at your hotel or riad in downtown Marrakech. This makes it easy for any traveler, whether you’re staying in a traditional Riad or a more modern hotel. From the start, the photographer will help you plan the locations and poses, ensuring that your photos reflect your personal style and the vibe you’re after.

Shooting in the Medina

Opting for a Medina shoot means wandering through Marrakech’s oldest quarter, a labyrinth of narrow alleys, bustling markets, and vibrant colors. The reviews show that guides like Badr and Abdo are well-versed in navigating these crowded streets, helping you find the best angles and moments amid the chaos. Ashley, who had her photos taken in the Medina, noted that Badr was “fantastic to work with” and tailored the session to her vision, making sure she felt comfortable and confident.

Shooting at a Riad or hotel

Alternatively, choosing a Riad or hotel allows for a more secluded, elegant atmosphere. Marrakech’s traditional interiors—adorned with Moroccan motifs, intricate tilework, and lush courtyards—provide stunning backdrops. Umar’s experience highlights how helpful and proactive the guides were, even helping him with items he purchased nearby. This option suits travelers looking for a more relaxed or luxurious setting, away from the hustle of the Medina.
