When you are traveling every day is full of exciting and memorable moments. But sometimes, it can be hard to remember all of the good times when you are living in the moment. That’s why we are sharing some of our favourite ways to capture vacation memories.

Keep A Travel Journal

A great way to capture your vacation memories is to write down your thoughts and feelings as you experience them. As you’re sitting at dinner, writing in the sand on the beach, or at the poolside bar enjoying a pina colada—take note of what’s happening around you. How does it feel? What are people wearing? What do they sound like when they talk? What do the colors look like up close and far away? Write down the best parts of your trip to relive them when you are home. You might also like to illustrate your travel journal with photos, stickers, menus, tickets and other small items related to your travels.

Take Plenty of Photos

One of the best ways to capture your vacation memories during trips is by taking photos. Try to take pictures of everything, including people, scenery, architecture, food and all those little details that will trigger your memory and bring back the feeling you had when you were there. Whether you are using your phone camera, a point-and-shoot or a fancier DSLR camera, you can capture beautiful memories every day of your travels. 

Book A Professional Photoshoot

Hiring a photographer to document your time in a special place is a worthwhile investment. Not only do you get iconic vacation memories to display in your home and office, but you can also use the images on social media or even frame and give them as a gift to family members. You can arrange to have photos taken somewhere iconic, or your photographer might suggest an off-the-beaten-track location that you might not have otherwise seen. 

Start Vlogging

If you are open about seeing yourself on video, vlogging is a great way to capture your vacation memories. You can talk about your experience while showing the place you are visiting. Videography can capture the atmosphere and place in a different way than photography can. Hearing voices, music and sounds are a great way to trigger your memory. You might like to invest in accessories like a tripod, microphone, or drone if you get really serious about vlogging.

There are so many ways to capture the memories of your trip. If you’re more interested in documenting your vacation than sharing it on social media, a travel journal is a perfect way to go. You could also use an Instagram, Facebook page, or blog where people can follow along with your journey. Finally, print photo books and frame your best photos when you get home to evoke the happiest moments during your travel adventures. Your vacation memories are precious and will keep you inspired until your next trip.
