Best Places to Take Instagram Photos In Miami
Welcome to my new blog series on Great Places To Shoot Content in Different Cities. And I don’t mean the obvious places, that attract every tourist on the planet. I knew I was going to Miami so I googled, “cool places to take photos in Miami” and the most basic, boring locations came up.
For this series I am going to find more unique places to take photos in each city and share it with you guys so you can hop in your car and take some bomb ass photos too! I can’t promise all will be the most original but I will do my best! Head on over to my Instagram @lexysilverstein and comment on any of my posts to request new cities to find picture locations.
- The Dior Cafe is a Dior store in Miami that added a pop-up cafe on the third floor. I was told I had to make reservations when I first went to the store on a Sunday. They told me to go on a app, which I could never find. I called both the store and the cafe a million times and never got a person on the phone. I went back on a Tuesday evening and walked right in the Dior store, and straight to the elevator to get to the rooftop. They have a light menu but hey no one is going for anything but the branded coffee with sprinkles forming the word Dior in the latte foam. Although the week I was there they were using the CD logo in the foam. My mom got avocado toast and I got the small latte and a Dior macaroon with a dime-sized Dior chocolate. The cost $52. So it’s expensive but I went there for the experience and the photos. The coffee and food was great but pricey.
2. The Miami Design District is the perfect photo location. Every corner you turn is a new, amazing place. There are funky walls and graffiti, fun stores, and so much more. Where is it? The area is roughly divided by NE 36th Street to the south, NE 43rd Street to the north, NW 1st Avenue to the west and Biscayne Boulevard (US 1) to the east.
3. Brickell City Centre: This centre has great architecture. It’s more on the subtle side but there architecture is amazing for some create photos ideas.
4. Vizcaya Museum and Gardens: Another gorgeous location. Tons of greenery. It gives me Princess Diary 2 vibes when she’s walking around the garden with Chris Pine. A great Cottage Core location.
5. Louis Vuitton Pop Up: The Louis Vuitton Pop Up Shop was in Miami for a decent amount of time and recently closed but there is still a crazy amazing and trippy wall with tons of LV’s all over it. Super colorful if that matches your feed!
6. Casa Tua Miami: This is a super cool restaurant with lots of greenery and lots of pink. Great meal, good time, and some great photos from it!
7. Miami Ironside: This area has some funky wall art and has a super beachy look to it. Tons of low rise palm trees so you can fit them in your photo.
8. Miami Selfie Museum: This was the first stop on my batch content shooting in Miami and it was so worth it. It’s 30$ per person for an hour. There are tons of little rooms with different themes. It’s a great way of spicing up your feed with fun, unique pictures and is such a good time.
9. Secret Gardens: The Secret Gardens is very cottage core esc. Tons of greenery and very majestical. It’s a little out of the way compared to the other locations but in my personal opinion, worth it for the super unique photos.
10. South Beach Lifeguard Stands: South Beach has these super colorful lifeguard stands. i think taking pictures on a lifeguard stand spices up your beach pictures a ton but these ones will be even better because they’re so colorful and fun.
11. The Betsy Orb: The Betsy Orb is right next to the Dior Cafe and is this crazy large orb in the middle of the shopping center. It’s kind of out of this world, alien-like. Super funky and in a convenient location when relating to everything else I’ve been mentioning.
12. Big Pink: Big Pink has all pink walls and sometimes even has a pink car outside of it. You may notice a common pink theme happening in Miami.
13. Wynwood Walls: Wynwood Walls is in the same location as the Selfie Museum and is essentially just a bunch of artistic walls placed together in one area. Whether actually at Wynwood Walls or nearby, it’s a graffiti lovers dream and Instagram photo heaven.
14. Museum Garage: This is a super funky garage. It’s parking garage meets playground. It’s pink and yellow and has a slide and a jungle gym. The most unique parking garage I’ve ever seen for sure.
15. The Van Gogh Exhibit: The Van Gogh Exhibit is a truly beautiful exhibit with tons of art, painted walls, and more. Tickets start at start at $34.90 for adults and $19.90 for children. This is similar to the Selfie Museum in which it is a bunch of rooms with different photo opportunities and is worth your money.
17. Any Beach: Miami has tons of beaches and the beach is one of my favorite places to take pictures. So drive a few minutes to a nearby beach — that’s just a given.
