Picking a location:

This is one of the most important decisions for your shoot. Your location sets the tone for your images, and I always encourage choosing something meaningful.

Think outside the box, I truly just need good light to make any location look amazing. My goal is for you to look back at these images 40–50 years from now and instantly remember how this season of life felt.

Is there private property we could ask permission to use?
A place you spend a lot of time together?
Where you first met, shared your first kiss, or made a big memory?
An activity you love doing as a family?

And if you have a wild or unconventional idea? Even better. I can’t wait to hear all about it.


Need a Little Inspiration?

If you’re feeling stuck, here are a few ideas to get your wheels spinning. The best locations are often the ones that already mean something to you, not the prettiest place on Google Maps.

Some of my favorite types of locations include:

  • Your home (yes, really – cozy, real, and full of memories)

  • A family property, farm, or camp

  • A place you spend a lot of time together (trails, lake, backyard, porch)

  • Grandma’s house or another meaningful family home

  • Where you first met, had your first date, or shared a big milestone

  • A favorite coffee shop, ice cream stand, or local hangout

  • An activity you love doing together (baking, fishing, hiking, gardening)

  • The place you go every summer

  • A quiet road, field, or overlook you’ve always loved

  • Anywhere that feels like you , even if it doesn’t feel “photo-worthy” at first

If you’re thinking, “I don’t know if that would work…”  that’s my favorite sentence to hear. I just need good light. I’ll take care of the rest.

Have a wild idea? Even better. Let’s talk about it.

The story always matters more than the scenery.
