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.
