I am Goga, a professional photographer, and in this blog, I will share everything you need to know to make your New Year photoshoot unforgettable. Below, you will find stunning locations, outfit tips, and answers to the most frequently asked questions.

Studio or outdoor photoshoot? Which one should we choose?

This is the question my clients ask me most often. As a photographer, I advise you to make your choice based on your comfort and the desired result:

1. Outdoor photoshoot

• Plus: Vibrant city lights, genuine emotions, diverse backgrounds, and the stunning views of Tbilisi.
• It should be considered: The cold (especially for children) and being dependent on the weather.

2. Studio photoshoot

• Plus: Warmth, maximum comfort, the ability to change outfits, and perfectly set lighting.
• იდეალურია: For families with young children.

Photographer Goga recommends: If you want dynamic, magical, and lively shots - let's head outdoors! If you prefer comfort and classic portraits - I’ll be waiting for you in the studio.

Top Locations in Tbilisi for the Best New Year Photoshoots

Tbilisi is especially beautiful this year. Here are my favorite locations where professional photoshoots yield the best results:

Orbeliani Square and the "New Year's Village"

A fairytale environment, the main Christmas tree, festive stalls, and countless decorations. It is ideal for a family stroll, a Love Story photoshoot, or capturing photos of children.

Rustaveli Avenue

Here, the main focus is on the large-scale illuminations. We get a beautiful 'bokeh' effect in the background of the photos, which gives the portraits a special charm.

Old Tbilisi / Abanotubani

The contrast between traditional architecture and New Year lights. If you want your photos to reflect the city's history, this is the best choice.

How to Prepare: 4 Golden Tips from a Photographer

1. Correct time: New Year photoshoot between 4:30 PM and 6:00 PM. This is the time of dusk when the city lights have just turned on. The sky is still blue, while the lights are golden.
2. Attire: Use layers: a coat, a hat, a scarf. Colors: red, green, white, beige. Try to coordinate the outfits among your family members.
3. Accessories: Bring sparklers - they add an amazing effect to your photos.
4. Mood: Most importantly, smile. Don't worry about posing-I will help you feel completely relaxed!
