What locations work best for a Photography shoot.
The title of this blog might be misleading in the fact that I whole-heartedly believe that almost anywhere can be a beautiful spot for a photography shoot. I have had many people reach out for a family, engagement, or senior shoot with a location already in mind. To some photographers this may be a little scary if they haven’t been to this location previously. To me I get SO excited when someone says they know exactly where they want their session. I think it’s so fun to see somewhere new and I like to think on my feet and find all the good spots and angles while I’m exploring. I also love this for my clients because sometimes it is a location that’s special to them. Keep reading if you’d like to see all the unique locations I have shot at over the years!
Hazewood Park Corydon Indiana
For this shoot Kenzie reached out to me for a family shoot as a present for her mom. I was so excited when she said they wanted the shoot to be at Hazewood Park. It’s such a beautiful park and her parents love to take long walks at the park most mornings. So stinkin’ sweet right?!
Southern Indiana Family Farm
This is only the first family farm on my list, but so stunningly beautiful nonetheless! When Chelsey reached out about doing their engagement session on her fiancés family farm I couldn't say yes fast enough. This is where her fiancé Ryan grew up and it’s now where they live and also where they plan to get married as well. What a dream right!
Lanesville Indiana
Let’s not ignore how increible these yellow flowers are first and foremost! Olivia reached out to me for her engagement photos and one thing she really wanted was flowers. So I was looking all over for the perfect place that has flowers. When I came across this big open field of yellow flowers near my parent’s house. This wasn’t a place my client showed me but it is still very much Olivia’s idea and I give her the credit for it!
Pine Springs Lake
Emily’s mom reached out to me about doing surprise maternity photos right before Emily’s baby shower. I was of course so into it! So not only is this a special place for her family but she also had her shower right after these photos. It was such a special and unique way to do maternity photos, they loved every second of it!
And that was just the tip of the iceberg as they say! There are so many unique ways to work your personality into a shoot. By doing that it can make the shoot so much more personal and special. So PLEASE from myself and all the other photographers out there tell us about yourself, tell us your favorite places, your hobbies, take us to your family home, whatever will make the shoot more about you! That’s all I really want to do as a photographer is to capture you as authentically as I can.
