Best places for a couple photoshoot in Bangalore, indoors and out
Outdoor spots
- Cubbon Park: tree-lined paths, lawns and the red State Central Library building. Early morning light is softest.
- Lalbagh Botanical Garden: the Glass House, the lake and old trees.
- Bangalore Palace: Tudor-style towers and arches. Photography rules and fees apply, so check before you plan.
- Church Street and MG Road area: cafes, murals and street scenes for a city look.
- Sankey Tank: lake views and sunset light in Malleswaram.
- Tipu Sultan's Summer Palace: carved wooden pillars and arches.
Many public places ask for permission or a fee for professional cameras. Check each one's current rules before you book a photographer.
Indoor spot: Aquarium Paradise
Outdoor shoots depend on weather and light. Inside Aquarium Paradise at Palace Grounds, the light is the same at any hour, and you have backdrops you will not find elsewhere in the city:
- India's longest underwater tunnel: fish passing overhead.
- Jellyfish room: reflective walls repeat the glowing tanks.
- Indoor waterfalls: brighter, softer frames.
- Ocean-view seating lounge: natural, seated couple shots.
Photo rules at the aquarium
- Phone photos and videos are fine with a normal ticket.
- Cameras and planned shoots need prior permission. Call +91 96063 11881 or use the questions page.
- Bags are not allowed and there is no bag storage, so plan outfits and props around that.
- Skip the flash; it reflects off the glass.
