Street jazz musicians performing in New Orleans

Best Photo Spots

  • Jackson Square at sunrise: Soft backlight highlights the cathedral and street artists.
  • St. Charles Avenue oak canopy: Great for long, dreamy avenue shots.
  • Riverfront silhouettes at sunset: Paddlewheelers make striking foregrounds against the skyline.

Gear & technique

  • Wide-angle (16–35mm): Streetscapes and tight interiors.
  • 50–85mm: Portraits and architectural details.
  • Polarizer/ND: Useful for river reflections; ND helps for longer exposures near water.

Practical shooting tips

  • Golden hour yields the best light for riverfront and cathedral shots.
  • Use burst mode for energetic street performers and dancing musicians.
  • Respect performers and ask before getting too close — many have photo etiquette or small fees.
