Lukfoto - Bangkok Photographer

Wat Ratchabophit
Photoshoot

A short, focused stop at one of Bangkok Old Town's most ornate temples, paired with a second location to make a full session.

Book your session
!
Please read first. Wat Ratchabophit does not allow commercial photoshoots on its grounds. We cannot run a full session here, and traditional Thai costumes are not allowed inside. We can stop by for a brief shoot of about 15 minutes and then continue at a second location to complete the session.

Wat Ratchabophit Photographer

A quick stop here, then on to the main location

We work as your Wat Ratchabophit photographer for a brief 15 minute stop, then move to a second temple or spot in Bangkok Old Town for the rest of the session.

The temple sits in Rattanakosin Island and has unusual gilt detail, mosaic tile and a quiet inner courtyard. It works well as a short, scenic break inside a longer afternoon, and entry is free.

Two things to know before we go in. The inner part with the curved wall is permanently closed to tourists, so we shoot the rest of the grounds. Ceremonies also happen here every afternoon, so we keep our voices low and move calmly. Even with those rules, there are plenty of great spots to shoot, the front facade, the cloister, the gilded doors and the side courtyards all photograph very well.

Because commercial photoshoots are not allowed here, we keep the stop low-key, no costume changes, no big setups, just clean portraits and details. Kissing photos are not allowed either, but close poses like holding hands or foreheads touching work well. Pair it with Wat Suthat, Loha Prasat or another nearby spot to round out the session.

What to expect at this temple

Stop-and-go, not a full session

  • About 15 minutes on site, brief and respectful
  • Free entrance, no ticket needed
  • Daily afternoon ceremonies, we stay quiet on the grounds
  • Inner curved-wall area is permanently closed to tourists, plenty of other great spots to shoot
  • No traditional Thai costumes on the grounds

  • Always paired with a second location to complete the booking

Good to know

Before your Wat Ratchabophit photoshoot

What should we wear?

Women cover shoulders, belly and knees. Men can't wear tank tops, and long trousers are more polite. Thai costumes are not allowed on the grounds, so keep this stop's outfit plain.

Why only a 15-minute stop?

Wat Ratchabophit does not allow commercial photoshoots. We keep the stop short and quiet, then finish your session at the second location.

Is there an entrance fee?

No. Entry is free (checked October 2026).

How do we get there?

The temple is a short walk from Sam Yot MRT station in the Old Town. A taxi or Grab also works well.

Where do we go after the stop?

Wat Suthat and Loha Prasat are close and pair well. Tell us your choice when you book and we plan the route.

Who will be our photographer?

One photographer runs your session. We match you with Jay, Jami or Kitsana based on your language and the type of shoot. You can also ask for one of them by name.

Ready to book your Wat Ratchabophit photoshoot?

Send us your dates and the second location you want to pair it with. You will work with the same Wat Ratchabophit photographer for the brief stop and the second location, only one private booking per afternoon.

Loved shooting with Jami! She has a great eye for fashion, light, and details. The whole shoot felt easy and comfortable, while she still knew exactly how to guide and bring the looks to life. The final shots turned out stylish, natural, and full of character - exactly my vibe. Would definitely love to work together again 🖤
