Holiday photographer in Kitzbühel

A holiday photographer in Kitzbühel is a photographer who spends an hour or two with visitors – couples, friends or families – to take natural pictures of their stay, so the person who usually holds the phone finally appears in the photos too. Many guests come for the Kitzbühel Advent: in 2026 it runs from 18 November to 27 December in the Hinterstadt and the Stadtpark, open Wednesday to Sunday from 2 pm to 8 pm, with live music daily from 6 pm to 7 pm, a children’s carousel and light installations.

That timing is ideal for pictures. In early December the sun sets around 4.25 pm, so a session that starts at 3.30 pm moves from the last daylight on the snowy lanes into the blue hour just as the market lights come on. Special dates add atmosphere: the St Nicholas procession in the Stadtpark on 6 December at 5 pm, and the Bergadvent at the Hahnenkamm mountain station on 4 and 18 December from 4 pm. In summer the same kind of session moves to the mountains and the lake. You receive a private online gallery, often within a few days, so you can share pictures while still on holiday.

Location ideas in Kitzbühel

01
Advent market in the Hinterstadt
Stalls, warm lights and the painted houses behind make a festive frame. Arrive just before dusk for the moment when daylight and lamps balance.
02
Stadtpark
The park part of the Advent has more space between stalls – easier for families with children and for group photos without strangers in every frame.
03
Bergadvent at the Hahnenkamm
On the two Bergadvent evenings the mountain station adds snowy slopes and the valley lights below to your holiday pictures.

Good to know

The Advent market is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays outside the special Christmas-week dates – plan the session for Wednesday to Sunday.
Book a holiday shoot early in your stay; if snow or fog arrives, there is still time to move the date.
Wear the warm hat and gloves you will actually use; matching red scarves look staged, real winter clothes look like your trip.
