Top Photo Tips for Your Visit

Time the Main Show Fountain

The main fountain isn’t just a centerpiece—it’s a performance. Capture it mid-splash with a fast shutter or burst mode, especially when the light hits just right near golden hour. Want some extra drama? Try angling from behind the jets and let the spray backlight your shot for a magical misty effect.


Palm Tree Paradise

Looking for that “I’m-on-vacation” vibe? Frame a shot with the palms reaching skyward behind you, or center them in a reflection for a dreamy, symmetrical feel. One look and you’re instantly transported to your summer happy place.


Ride the Train

Nothing captures summer joy like the bright and cheery train in motion. Snap it mid-curve with kids waving, or catch the conductor through a blur of rose blooms for a storybook feel. Unleash your child at heart!


Look for Layers in Architecture

Colorful planters. Textured walls. Arched walkways. Use these layers to frame your subject, add depth, and tell a bigger story. The walkway between Dave & Buster's and Zócalo...chef’s kiss!


Snap the Good Stuff

That colorful salad, your new signature latte, or that fresh post-salon glow—don’t be shy. Snap your delish dishes, shopping scores, or that just-styled “do” in the wild. These are the moments that feel like summer.

Skip the Harsh Light

Step into soft shade under a palm or building awning to avoid those squinty midday shadows. Bonus: you'll get that dreamy, even light that flatters everything (and everyone).


Summer Colors Pop

Think citrus and sky—lemon yellow, soft mint, pops of pink, bold blue. These tones look stunning against our bright storefronts, stone textures, and summer skies.


Flip Your Perspective

Try walking with your phone upside down and lens low for unexpected reflections and dramatic angles. Your water fountain shots will become works of art when you’re not aiming from eye-level.


Share the Space

Remember to be mindful of other visitors, especially around the fountains and walkways during peak hours.

Loved the photo-spot suggestions here reminds me how balance matters. During a heavy term I turned to an online Business studies exam help  through Take My Online Exam Pro. As a customer, I got to enjoy summer fun like this without the constant cloud of missed deadlines.
