1. Have a romantic picnic date
A picnic date photoshoot will be the most alluring during the spring season with flowers around in full bloom. Or during the autumn season when the branches in the parks are thick with leaves in reddish brown hues!
With breath-taking natural beauty all around, a photoshoot in the park will definitely be a good place to start! Visit the popular Seonyudo Park in Seoul to pose with the seasonal flowers of the Botanic Gardens.
After spending the whole day together exploring Seoul, arrange for a photoshoot to coincide with the sunset. Not only will you get to enjoy the great view, your photos will be basked in glorious orange tints.
Since cherry blossoms have been understood to represent the beauty of life, celebrate the life you have together with your significant other! Furthermore, we don’t get to experience the cherry blossom season in Singapore, so a photoshoot would be the perfect opportunity to capture these memories!
The streets of Hongdae will be like a breath of fresh air! With street music all around, this vibrant shopping district will be a unique place for you to have your couple photoshoot.
Take this opportunity to appreciate art in these urban environments with street art all around. These will add a pop of colour to your photos and will also allow you to be comical and causal when you pose with them!
Another location that cannot be found in Singapore is the tea plantation. It makes a favourable place for a couple photoshoot with serene surroundings, vast open air and clear blue skies.
Release your inner-child and have a ball of a time at an abandoned amusement park in Korea. With most of the facilities still intact, feel free to use them as props for your photoshoot!
The sunshine yellow canola fields will be full bloom in spring, so visit then if you’re considering it as one of your date snap location. Just make sure to not commit any illegal trespassing that could get yourselves into trouble!
What’s a better way to enjoy a date than eating together right? Since there are heaps of street food stalls in Korea, documenting your trip at one would be a good representation of your time there!
