I use PhotoPills in two big ways: planning landscapes/long exposures and planning outdoor portraits for clients and family sessions.

For landscapes and long exposures, I rely on it to:

  1. Scout locations and compose shots in advance
  2. Track the sun, moon, and Milky Way for alignment
  3. Calculate long exposure times (using the built‑in timer pill)

For portraits, I use it to:

  1. See exactly where and when the best light will be (golden hour, backlight, rim light)
  2. Plan where to place my subjects relative to the sun
  3. Pre-visualize framing and background before the session so I show up fully prepared

Is there a specific type of photography you’re interested in using PhotoPills for?
