I’ve been traveling for a few weeks around South America so I haven’t had a chance to sit down and write in the Nightclub Photography Online blog. Right now, I’m in Buenos Aires, Argentina and finally have some time to write.

A quick update on the Ultimate Nightclub Photography Guide for all of you who have been inquiring, it’s almost done! We want it to be perfect. Please bear with us. It will be ready soon!

So I finally got to take my camera out to a club in Buenos Aires the other night, and I have to say, it was awesome. The people in Argentina really know how to party! They stay up really late compared to people in America, too. Instead of writing about photography tips or techniques, I wanted to briefly write about the power that the camera can have even in foreign lands!

Taking great photos in nightclubs while people are partying is a great way to start up conversations. My Spanish isn’t as good as it used to be, but I didn’t need it.  When I handed people my business card, and they realized I was from the U.S., they loved it and felt obliged to show me a good time. The people started speaking English, tried to speak English, or found someone who did! In turn, I kept capturing the party moments. It’s amazing!

So, not only can you make money while you’re partying, but as a nightclub photographer, you have the power to cross cultures and “fit-in” even in foreign territory!

By the way, I highly recommended partying it up in Buenos Aires!
