I have asked to do some portrait sessions for senior pictures and custom design Graduation invitations. I am looking for some places that would be good for this.

Someone had some pictures from Las Colinas the other day (I think down in the canals over by the newer apartments/condos). I was quite impressed. Of course, I work down there and never realized it looked that great, so perhaps a lot of credit should go to the photographer?

If they want edgier here are some Deep Ellum Backgrounds
http://www.pbase.com/demdeepellummus...s_shots&page=2 and the next 2 pages, these were all shot last weekend. (All except the first one with the Devil and that is now painted over in a dull brownish maroon paint). The shots from the Pearland Mill and old Dr Pepper Plant and on were shot in Exposition Park which is just due east of the Mill and west of the Fair Park grounds. There actually are some great locations inside of the park at the lagoon, the Dallas Garden Center and else where around the the Fair Grounds especially if they want a Texas style flair to their background.
Looking through this album will give you some of the Fair Grounds scenes that are there all year http://www.pbase.com/demdeepellummus..._of_texas_2006
