Summer’s Here: What We’re Shooting This Season ☀️ 🌊📸
Creative instax™ ideas that feel like long days, salty hair, and first-swim energy.
Summer in Australia is a whole mood - scorching arvos, the esky’s full, the barbie’s sizzling, and the ocean’s calling your name. It’s the season of spontaneous beach days, long roadies with the windows down, and sunsets that feel like they go on forever.
Your instax™ camera is built for summer memories. And with our instax ™ range, you can capture, customise, print, and replay all your favourite moments instantly.
Here’s what we’re shooting this season, and how to make your summer look as good on film as it feels in the moment.
Salty Hair Moments
Sandy towels, cool water, post-swim selfies - summer memories start at the beach.
📸 Photo Tips:
• Shoot during sunrise or golden hour for soft, cinematic surf colours.
• Capture splashes, hair flips, sunscreen moments. Movement = summer energy.
• Want a retro vibe? Play with filters on the instax WIDE 400™ for sun-washed tones.
• Use the WIDE 400™'s self timer for the perfect group shots at the beach.
Fruit Lunches
Nothing says summer like an outdoor table covered in bright fruit, drinks, and sunglasses.
📸 Photo Tips:
• Flat-lay your picnic: watermelon slices, shells, sunnies, cold drinks.
• Take creative control with instax WIDE Evo™'s unique lens and film effects.
• Print extras straight from your phone using the WIDE Evo™ so guests can take home a memory.
Road Trips, Lookouts & Long Drive
Windows down, music up, bags in the boot - summer adventures start on the road.
📸 Photo Tips:
• Use the instax mini LiPlay+™ remote shooting feature to capture the perfect group photo in front of scenic backgrounds.
• Be sure to capture audio memories with the mini LiPlay+™ to record a voice snippet from the car sing-along and link it to your print with a QR code.
• Snap the in-between moments: petrol station snacks, seatbelt selfies, messy windswept hair.
Pool Days & BBQ Nights
From floatie chaos to sunset swims, these are the moments you’ll want printed instantly.
📸 Photo Tips:
• Try silhouette portraits with friends against a blazing sunset.
• Use fairy lights or sparklers at night - the instax mini Evo™ can be adjusted to handle low light beautifully with its exposure adjustment features.
• Print duplicates right away so everyone leaves with a memory in hand.
DIY Summer Memory Walls & Scrapbooks
Summer goes fast - but your photos don’t have to.
📸 Photo Tips:
• Mix film styles (classic white, pastel, patterned summer editions).
• Add ticket stubs, pressed flowers, sand-smudged handwriting for texture.
• Print phone photos straight into your scrapbook with the instax mini LiPLay™.
• For personalised borders, mix in mini LiPlay™'s built-in frames for extra character.
Summer is for warm nights, cold swims, barefoot adventures, and memories worth holding onto. And with instax™, you don’t just capture the season, you collect it.
So what’s your summer story? Grab your instax™, stock up on film, and start shooting.
