MY Favourite Locations for Family Photos in Abu Dhabi

Here are a few of my top picks for family photo shoots:

Abu Dhabi Desert: Nothing says "wow" quite like the golden dunes of the Abu Dhabi desert. It’s a stunning backdrop that adds a magical touch to your family photos, making them look like something straight out of a fairy tale.

Umm Al Emarat Park: If you’re into lush greenery and open spaces, Umm Al Emarat Park is your go-to. It’s a peaceful, vibrant spot where your family can relax and just be yourselves while I capture those candid, happy moments.

Wahat Al Karama: Looking for something with a bit of history and modern flair? Wahat Al Karama is perfect. The reflective pools and cool architecture make for some truly unique and memorable family shots. Plus the backdrop of Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque is absolutely beautiful.
