Old Railway Station (HaTachana)

Neve Tzedek · historic station buildings

The First Railway Station is often busy, but its historic buildings and columns make a great backdrop for a save-the-date shoot. I shoot with fast prime lenses, so the crowd melts into a soft blur and you two stay the centre of the picture.

The park by the Hilton Tel Aviv

Above the Mediterranean · lawns and coastal bushes

Right above the sea, the hidden park next to the Hilton Tel Aviv mixes green lawns with wild coastal bushes. It is quiet, it has wide sea views, and it gives natural, relaxed pictures.

A café or rooftop you love

Ask your friends

Places that matter to you make the best locations: your favourite café, a friend's rooftop or garden. They also work well on hot, sunny Israeli days.

What makes every wedding unique is the couple, the friends around them and the families who shaped their lives.

Bauhaus streets

Bograshov, Rothschild Boulevard, Habima Square

The start of Bograshov Street near Dizengoff, Rothschild Boulevard and Habima Square: white Bauhaus buildings that make your photos look great.

Neve Tzedek

Small streets, boutiques and old houses

It looks like the south of France. Away from Shabazi Street there are corners with very few people, and plenty of boutiques, old houses and small streets to frame your photos and videos.

Tel Aviv Port

North Tel Aviv · boardwalk on the open sea

Wooden boardwalks, old industrial warehouses and cafés right on the open Mediterranean. Sunny and lively, a good place for a save-the-date shoot.

Tel Aviv skyline from Jaffa

Two minutes' walk from Old Jaffa

Tel Aviv is a flat city, and buildings, sea and walls as the only backgrounds can get boring. Two minutes' walk from Old Jaffa there is a quiet spot with the whole Tel Aviv skyline behind you.

An Airbnb or a hotel

Getting ready, rooftops, lounges

Some Airbnb flats have an amazing atmosphere. It is a good idea to rent one for yourselves or your guests for the morning preparations.

Hotels usually let you shoot inside: roofs, halls and lounges all make good places for portraits.

Old Jaffa

Middle Eastern corners next to the tourist spots

Do you know this place in Jaffa? There are many corners like it that most people never see: the spirit of the Middle East, two steps from the tourist spots.

Nahalat Binyamin

Old streets of Tel Aviv

The old streets of Tel Aviv around the Nahalat Binyamin pedestrian street.

Tel Aviv's boulevards

Rothschild, Chen, Nordau

Rothschild, Chen and Nordau boulevards, covered with eucalyptus trees.

Wolfson Park

Close to Tel Aviv · the “Egypt station” pyramids

Modern fashion pyramids, with a great view of the Tel Aviv skyline included. The first of a few places close to Tel Aviv but outside the city.

Japanese Garden in Holon

15 minutes south of Tel Aviv

Just a 15-minute drive south of Tel Aviv: a quiet, pretty Japanese garden.

Design Museum Holon

Lines and geometry

An amazing place full of lines and geometry. Great for couples who love design.

Secret tropical garden in HaYarkon Park

Tropical plants under the open sky

An amazing place with tropical plants under the open sky. We have to ask for a permit in advance to shoot there.

Permit
needed, ask in advance

Apollonia National Park

Near Herzliya and Netanya · castle ruins above the sea

Ruins of a castle on a cliff, with an amazing view of the sea from the top and beautiful Israeli nature around it.

Entry
entrance fee

How to plan the shoot

  • Light: the last two hours before sunset give soft, warm light; midday sun in Israel is hard and hot.
  • Crowds: Jaffa, the port and the Old Railway Station are busy at weekends, so a weekday is calmer.
  • Permits: some gardens and parks ask for a permit or an entrance fee; I check this when we pick the place.
  • Two places, not five: moving between locations eats the light. One city spot and one nature spot is usually enough.
