Holiday video in Downtown Dubai — from $350. 90 min on location with a vetted local videographer, and you receive 2–3 min film + 60 s vertical reel within 2–3 weeks. The price is agreed before you book and does not move.
Why here
Seen from the Souk Al Bahar side, Burj Khalifa stands to the north-west — lit from the front at sunrise, backlit at sunset, and surrounded by a crowd from six in the evening. That is what decides how a session is planned here: the videographer you work with shoots in Downtown Dubai all year, so they are not seeing the place for the first time alongside you. That prior knowledge is the difference between a shoot that lands inside its window of light and one spent looking for a frame.
How the shoot is planned
The typical plan runs 90 min: we start at Souk Al Bahar bridge and lake promenade and move on to The Dubai Fountain. Two locations rather than one give you two distinct backdrops, and the transfer between them is timed in advance so the soft light is not spent in a car.
The hour matters more than the location. For Souk Al Bahar bridge and lake promenade, the window to aim for is sunrise; then blue hour, 20–40 minutes after sunset. The session runs 90 min and is built around that window rather than your diary: from May to September the middle of the day in the UAE is hard light and dangerous heat, so sunrise and the last hour before sunset are not a preference here but the rule.
What’s included
The Holiday video package in Downtown Dubai covers: 2–3-minute film, colour-graded, with music; 60-second vertical reel; Reel within 3–5 days, film within 2–3 weeks. Nothing is added to the price after the shoot. Permits worth knowing about: Museum of the Future — exterior: free from the street. Interior: ticketed, and professional equipment needs the museum’s approval.

Before you book
For Souk Al Bahar bridge and lake promenade, aim for sunrise; then blue hour, 20–40 minutes after sunset. At a busy location, two hours either way changes what can be framed at all.
At some locations, yes: Museum of the Future (exterior: free from the street. Interior: ticketed, and professional equipment needs the museum’s approval). The videographer handles it and tells you at booking, not on the day.
We move the shoot to another slot or another day at no cost. If you are only in the UAE briefly, we switch to backup locations scouted in advance rather than cancelling.
2–3 min film + 60 s vertical reel within 2–3 weeks. Everything arrives in a private online gallery, at full resolution, downloadable from any country.
