Clock Tower Photos: What to Know
Great results come down to good light, the right location, and a relaxed approach to your Clock Tower photos.
The West Palm Beach Clock Tower at the downtown waterfront is the city’s signature photo backdrop. It’s one of my favorite locations for engagement and couples sessions, and it’s where many of my best South Florida photos are made.
Why is the Clock Tower such a good photo spot?
It combines a striking landmark, open waterfront light, palm trees, and walkable promenades all in one place. You get variety — architectural, romantic, and natural backdrops — within a few steps of each other.
When is the best time for Clock Tower photos?
Sunrise is magical here and far less crowded, while sunset over the Intracoastal gives warm, glowing light. Weekday mornings are quietest if you want the space mostly to yourself.
What should I wear for photos at the Clock Tower?
Soft, solid colors and flowing fabrics photograph beautifully against the waterfront. Avoid busy patterns and neon, and bring a second outfit if you’d like variety.
Tips for Better Clock Tower Photos
Plan your outfits, choose the right time of day, and trust your photographer to guide you to the best results.
