How To Choose The Perfect Location

Easily one of the hardest decisions when planning your session, is location.

A grassy field?
A gorgeous beach?
Your favorite park?

There are so many amazing options to choose from. Maybe more choices than you realize!

How do I pick just one?

When it comes to choosing your dreamy location, don’t be scared to think outside the box. Maybe you, or someone you know, has access to a location that wouldn’t otherwise be available to the public! Such as a private estate, a country club, or a gorgeous family ranch. If you continue to rack your brain, and still can’t come up with a location that makes you melt, I am here to help you!

01.
My favorite park might be different than yours,
which is why this location is a little less specific. A gorgeous grassy (or flower!) field, paired with a stunning wood-line is a great choice, especially in autumn, you can never go wrong with capturing your special time with absolutely gorgeous autumn colors to complement the photos.

02.
Brushy creek runs through a ton of areas in
central Texas, including Hutto. (Where I am!) A gorgeous waterfront, whether it’s a creek/river, a lake, or a beach, is a phenomenal choice. To me water represents freedom, and nothing feels better than feeling free & being able to let loose
during your session. Water can add so much visual interest to your final images, and that is a huge plus! A body of water also offers an opportunity for more unique posing! Dipping your toes in the water looks great, and even better, feels great! (Especially in the Texas heat!)

03.
Overlook park, at Lake Georgetown, is probably my number one choice. The beautiful fields, paired with not only amazingly gorgeous trees, but also an absolutely stunning waterfront. It’s all your dream locations, wrapped up into one. It’s a popular session location in our area, for a reason. You can never go wrong with Overlook Park!
