Photography locations

 Welcome! I’m so excited you’re here 🤍

This page was created to make planning your photo session easy, stress-free, and fun.

Every session tells a story — your story. Whether it’s filled with laughter, quiet moments, love, or celebration, the location plays a huge role in bringing that story to life. Instead of sending multiple messages with different options, I’ve created this guide so you can visually explore the locations I offer and choose what feels most like you.

Below, you’ll find a curated selection of locations I love to photograph at. Each spot offers a different vibe — from open fields and nature tones to trees, paths, and soft backdrops — all chosen to complement my light, airy, and natural photography style.

☀️Lighting & Best Time of Day🌳

Lighting is everything when it comes to creating soft, flattering, and timeless images. Here’s a simple breakdown to help guide you:

• Golden Hour (Best Option ✨)
  Typically 60–90 minutes before sunset
  This is my favorite time to shoot. The light is warm, soft, and dreamy — perfect for romantic, emotional, and glowing images.
• Late Afternoon
  Earlier in the afternoon works beautifully in locations with plenty of trees and shade. Shade helps avoid harsh sunlight and keeps tones soft and natural.
• Midday Sessions (Limited & Location-Dependent)
  Midday sessions are possible only in areas with strong shade coverage. Open sun during this time can create harsh shadows, so location choice is key.

Seasonal grass color changes and daylight savings can affect timing and days, so once you choose a location, I’ll help guide you toward the best time window for your session.

*If you desire a specific theme please inform your photographer, beach options are available too.*
