Every year I post photo tips on how to photograph fireworks (and sometimes sparklers too)!  Can you believe I started posting firework photo tips back in 2007?  Isn’t that FUN!  This year I decided to combine the Best of Fireworks Photo Tips for you!  We’ve got something for everyone!  We know how hard it can be to capture fireworks photos.  The sky is so dark you can barely see your camera settings!  But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Whether you want our most popular, pinned photo-recipe for fireworks, 5 easy steps to capturing great sparkler photos, our step-by-step guide to shooting a time lapse of your fireworks (with instructions of how to make it a video too!), or fun 4th of July activities for the kids, it’s all here!

Ready to get crackin and sparklin?  Happy 4th of July everyone!  Enjoy!

All photos shot with Sony cameras.  See what’s in our camera bag here!
