Louis Vuitton Island Maison view of Singapore River

Once you’re at the Marina Bay area walk towards the Louis Vuitton island store (connected via a small dock). Walk onto the dock and behind the store and you’ll see the platform where I took this photograph! By MRT: - Closest MRT Station: Bayfront (Downtown Line) - Take exit “C” - Head northeast on Bayfront Ave - Walk into The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands and exit at the back to the Marina Bay area Address: Louis Vuitton Island Maison, 2 Bayfront Avenue, #B1-38/39, Singapore 018972

All months of the year are suitable to photograph from the Louis Vuitton Island Maison. The hazy months tend to be in June and July, if you’d like a similar feel to my photograph.

In the late-afternoon (close to sunset) the sun won’t be at its highest or brightest, hence not as harsh. That said, the sunset views in this area are also beautiful.

A mid-range lens allows you to capture a true perspective of your model, the architecture and the Singapore River.

The edges of the platform make for great portrait photography. Experiment by placing your model in different spots and looking different directions. i chose to have my model look away to create a moody vibe.

If you’re visiting during sunset, the sky is constantly changing colors. It's usually most vibrant minutes before disappearing on the horizon.

Check out the Artscience Museum once you’re done. Grab a Gong Cha (bubble tea) to cool off from the sweltering heat!
