All months are suitable to photograph this staircase.

Visit in the morning or mid-day for the best shadows caused by the harsh light.

This location works well for both faraway and tighter compositions. Experiment to find your favorite.

I requested my model to jump so I could capture his shadow. In the morning and mid-day you’re most likely to have great shadows. Get creative with different postures and make use of a prop!

With a fast shutter speed on continuous shooting mode you’ll be most likely to capture a focused, sharp jump shot.

The famous Montane Mansion has plenty of interesting photographic spots. Check it out if you have time!
