YOUR DREAM TRAVEL MOVIE
- Take photos... And we will only add shine to your photos
Self-made holiday photos evoke many positive emotions in each of us and bring back wonderful memories. However, it often happens that the captured frame does not reflect the colors, places, emotions that we would like to remember. Professional photo editing will bring out hidden advantages from the image, often invisible at first glance, and will allow you to correct imperfections. Even a seemingly simple, dark and uninteresting photo, after a series of appropriately selected corrections, can take on new life.
The process of photography is more than just using good photographic equipment or a smartphone with a technologically advanced camera. It is the ability to properly select the composition, lighting, and often also choosing the right moment to press the shutter. Photo retouching is currently an inseparable element of a good photo, which affects the quality of the photo and makes memories stay with us for a lifetime.
- Professional photo editing
Professional photo editing involves a series of activities aimed at improving the overall appearance of the image and includes, among others, color correction, color changes, white balance, sharpening, cropping, geometry, optics, removing unwanted objects or chromatic aberrations, and many other activities. Appropriate color saturation, image sharpening or setting the white balance are just small changes that significantly affect the final effect. Photo editing is a more complex process than applying a filter using generally available programs. It is primarily work on details so that the final effect of photo retouching does not look artificial and is pleasant to the human eye.

FAQ How to take better photos on vacation?
What are the optimal settings on your phone?
Resolution: 16-20 Mpix
Nowadays, it is not worth taking photos below 12Mpix, because the captured image will be saved in our camera in very low quality, which will limit the possibilities of using the photo and subjecting it to further processing.
16-20 Mpix is the optimal value, which is completely sufficient to obtain sharp and clear photos, satisfactory both on the phone screen and in standard prints for home use. The same range provides good quality with a relatively small file size.
And what if I have 200 Mpix? That’s even better! Perfect for night mode (reduces noise) or when you intend to print your photos in a format larger than a photo album. Unfortunately, high resolution has one significant disadvantage… the size, which can exceed the file size several times over than the optimal resolution. In the case of a longer trip, be sure to check whether you have enough space for data on your device and have a sufficiently large storage unit at home. Over the years of traveling, you’ll accumulate quite a bit of it 🙂
Format: 16:9 or 4:3?
In the 4:3 format, we are usually able to set the highest resolution of the matrix. Personally, we recommend the 4:3 format, although in this matter it all depends on individual preferences.
The 16:9 format looks best on smartphones and TV screens, because the image is presented in its entirety without cropping. The card is then more elongated.

What is the photo retouching service?
Photo retouching in short means improving photographs using advanced digital tools, thanks to which we are able to improve details and remove unwanted objects that disturb the aesthetics.
It is a time-consuming process that requires at least basic knowledge of photography and many years of trial and error methods.
The basic post-production work when editing a photo includes primarily improving the color by setting the white balance and shades, contrast (blacks, whites, burns, shadows) or color temperature, saturation and brightness.
If you lack the time or knowledge in the field of photo post-production after returning from a trip, just choose one of our packages… And we will take care of the rest.

Can night photos be improved?
Of course YES. However, the scope of action is limited due to noise (image interference), which reduces the quality of the photo.
To get rid of the undesirable effect, a noise reduction method is used during photo processing, which reduces the „snowing effect” at the expense of sharpness. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the right balance between both parameters so that the photo retains its aesthetic value.

Which photography equipment should you choose: camera or smartphone?
Two golden tips:
1. Choose the equipment you have at hand
Time always passes too quickly when traveling. We often change locations and do not have enough time to settle in one place, set up the equipment and choose the right parameters, and the shots and moments pass.
Sometimes it is better to capture an event even in unfavorable lighting or from a moving vehicle than to count on luck that a similar opportunity will happen again.
2. Take photos with equipment that you feel confident with
Advanced SLR cameras can often make you dizzy and it takes a lot of time to get to know the capabilities of your own equipment. Sometimes the „Auto” mode is not such a bad solution, however… isn’t it worth choosing equipment that you know how to use and that you feel confident with, and the operation of which does not require you to set the parameters for several minutes?
Travel – this is your time to discover, learn and learn. We strongly encourage you to experiment with your own equipment and develop your own skills.

Can you take good photos with a smartphone?
And what kind! Modern mobile phones are equipped with increasingly powerful cameras year by year, enabling users, above all, intuitive and automated operation, as well as a wide selection of lenses: main, front, wide-angle, telephoto (zoom)
A major advantage of using smartphones in photography is, above all, their small size and availability „always at hand”.
Mobile phones are relatively discreet, so they attract „unwanted glances” less than large and expensive SLR cameras with long and heavy lenses.

Is it worth using zoom on your phone, and how to do it?
It’s not worth it as much as it is NEEDED. Of course, sensibly and not necessarily with every frame 🙂 Thanks to the zoom, we gain greater possibilities of setting the frame without having to change our own position. In addition, we are able to take so-called Discreet photos, without interrupting the work or rituals of the people being photographed. Remember that everyone has the right to privacy.
Optical or digital zoom? We always use optical zoom, because only then do we get a sharp and lossless image. Digital zoom causes a significant loss of quality, which is why later use of photos becomes very limited at higher magnifications.
Tip: In photo mode, do not use two fingers to enlarge the frame (which is usually done when browsing photos in the gallery), because then the digital zoom is used. Select the optical zoom that your smartphone supports by clicking the magnification option displayed on the screen: 2x, 5x, 10x. Only then will you discover the magic.
Be sure to check the parameters of your phone to better use the capabilities of the telephoto lens. Zoom in on the surroundings… And you will certainly discover the charms of the world from a new perspective.

What is location accounting?
Conduct Location Scouting before every trip at home. You will certainly minimize surprises, unless you love travel improvisation 🙂
At the location scouting stage, you will be able to familiarize yourself with the place you are going to. Thanks to this, the first ideas for the frames you have chosen will appear in your head and you will determine approximately what equipment you will use, which will save a lot of time on the spot and allow you to enjoy a stress-free trip.
Location scouting includes, among other things, familiarizing yourself with the place of travel, opening hours, parking location, choice of equipment, weather, travel time, sunrise and sunset times.

How to fly a drone to take photos and record videos?
However, it should be remembered that a drone is not a toy and that you must always comply with aviation regulations and the law in force in a given country. Each country has its own regulations, even in the EU the regulations have been unified, but local national regulations still cause a lot of confusion. Never fly in the airport zone, near prisons, military bases and other strategic facilities to avoid unpleasant consequences.
Flying a drone: REMEMBER
- Always check the local regulations regarding flying a drone a few weeks before your trip.
- Don’t fly! – when you don’t feel confident in a given location – too many people, unfavorable weather conditions, short distance from strategic facilities and airports.
- You are the operator and you are responsible for each flight.
- Update your drone software before your trip
- Buy insurance
- Check the condition of your equipment
- Check local regulations
- Get a license
- Plan your flight based on the weather

How to prepare your equipment before traveling?
It seems obvious, but even professionals sometimes make simple mistakes when, in the rush of preparations, they forget about obvious things: no card in the camera, uncopied footage from the previous trip, unrecognizable card in the device, no charger or appropriate adapter, no required drone markings, etc. Sound familiar?
Especially for you, we have prepared a short checklist that will help you properly prepare your photographic and filming equipment before your trip.
