If you’re looking to capture your trip to Buenos Aires with stunning, professional-quality photos, this private photoshoot might just be what you need. For $395 per group, up to five people, you get around two and a half hours of personalized photography led by a seasoned travel photographer whose work has graced publications like National Geographic and Conde Nast Traveller. The tour takes you through two of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods—La Boca and Puerto Madero—with the flexibility to tailor the locations to your preferences.
What we really appreciate about this experience is the expert guidance and high-quality gear used, including full-frame DSLR cameras and professional lenses that ensure crisp, vibrant images. Plus, the addition of external flashes and light modifiers means your portraits won’t be washed out or overly harsh. Another highlight is the personalized attention, with a dedicated photographer guiding you through scenic spots and helping you pose naturally, which results in photos you’ll want to display for years.
One small consideration is that transportation isn’t included—so you’d need to arrange your own way between the neighborhoods or meet at the designated start point. This might seem minor, but it’s worth planning ahead, especially if you’re traveling on a tight timetable or with limited mobility. This experience is ideal for families, couples, or friends who want a fun, stress-free way to get professional photos while exploring the city.
If capturing memories in a vibrant, authentic setting sounds appealing, then this tour suits those who value high-quality imagery and enjoy a bit of guided exploration with a professional touch.

The Itinerary Breakdown: From La Boca to Puerto Madero
The tour begins at Av. Don Pedro de Mendoza 1929, a convenient meeting point in Buenos Aires. From there, your photographer, Bernardo, will lead you through the lively streets of La Boca, famous for its vibrant, colorful houses and Caminito street, a must-see for any visitor. Here, you’ll have the chance to get photos amidst the vividly painted facades, capturing the lively spirit of this iconic neighborhood.
Your guide will then steer you toward Puerto Madero, a sleek, modern waterfront district with sleek skyscrapers and views of the river. This area provides a contrasting backdrop to La Boca—think modern architecture, glitzy restaurants, and expansive river vistas—ideal for both relaxed portraits and group shots with Buenos Aires’ skyline as a backdrop.
If you wish, Bernardo can suggest other spots like Plaza de Mayo or the Colón Theater area, offering variety for your photo collection. Each spot is carefully chosen to provide visual interest and authentic urban flavor.
What to Expect During the Session
Throughout the 2.5-hour session, Bernardo employs full-frame DSLR cameras and professional lenses to ensure every shot is sharp and beautifully composed. You’ll notice he uses external flashes and soft light modifiers—like umbrellas and reflectors—that create flattering, natural-looking light, even if the sun is harsh or the sky is overcast. This technical attention makes a big difference in the final images, giving them that polished, professional feel.
Bernardo takes his work seriously, which shows in the deliberate posing guidance and the thoughtful composition of each shot. Based on reviews, clients appreciate how he helps them look natural—whether they are posing traditionally or just having fun. The final images, about 35 per session, are delivered as high-resolution JPEGs, ready to print or share online. Many clients describe their photos as “perfect” or “superb,” highlighting Bernardo’s talent and the high standards he upholds.

What sets this tour apart is the combination of expert photography and genuine exploration. You get to walk through lively streets and admire Buenos Aires’ colorful character while your photographer captures those moments for you. It’s a wonderful way to see the city from a local’s perspective while securing professional-grade photos that truly reflect your trip.
The Value of This Experience
Compared to typical sightseeing tours, this photoshoot offers lasting value. Instead of just memories, you’re leaving with high-quality images that can be framed, shared, or kept as souvenirs. The cost of $395 for a session of this length and quality is quite reasonable, especially considering the professional equipment and personalized service involved. Travel photographers of Bernardo’s caliber, with accolades like the Luxury Travel Guide Awards, often charge much more for similar experiences.
