Summer is slowly coming to an end, but right now is the perfect moment to plan your photo session.

1. Perfect Late Summer Light

The golden, soft light of August afternoons adds warmth and a unique character to photos. Shooting during the so-called golden hour gives natural effects and beautifully highlights facial features.


2. Fewer Crowds, More Peace

The tourist season in Kraków is slowly winding down, and popular spots like the Main Square, Kazimierz, or Planty become more accessible. It’s the ideal time for atmospheric photos in well-known locations without the hustle and bustle of random passers-by.


3. Versatile Styling

Late summer is the time when you can mix the lightness of summer outfits with more elegant autumn accents. Linen shirts, light blazers, or delicate dresses work perfectly both outdoors and in the studio.


4. The Ideal Time to Refresh Your Image

A new LinkedIn profile photo, a professional portrait for your CV, or an update of your company website? The end of summer is a perfect moment to prepare for the autumn business season and stand out from the competition.


5. Kraków in a Unique Light

The greenery of Planty, the magical light along the Vistula, the charming streets of the Old Town – late summer in Kraków is a dream time for photos that combine the city’s atmosphere with your individual style.
