Plano TX Locations

[MeganDavidson821]

Hi everyone! I am new to this forum and am just starting out with my photography business. I am doing a shoot next weekend of an almost 2 year old little boy and need some recomendations on locations in or around the plano area. What I had in mind was something with lots of bright colors and preferably outside. If anyone has any ideas they would be greatly appreciated!

There is actually a GREAT place in Richardson that I am shooting at this weekend. It's at prairie creek park- its towards the the end of prairie creek dr and collins blvd. there is an absolutely beautiful waterfall! I had the kids stand on the rocks above the waterfall and the helped them down into the creek. It was an awesome place! I was able to supervise a 5 yr old and a 1 yr old on my own so I would say it's safe!
There is also an office complex off 75 and a little side street called palisades (before campbell road) there is a small bridge, a waterfall and cool places to take pictures. They post to stay off the rocks but if you go on a weekend you'll be fine! Its much smaller and subtle than the prairie creek waterfall.
here's a few pics I took!

Legacy at the Tollway, east side.

No bright colors there but the Shops at Legacy, north side of Bishop Road, have some awesome life size longhorn bronzes and riders. Color at the fountains of the shops at legacy also on the north side.

The south side has a small lake and plantings.

The business park across the tollway from the Ikea mall has many interesting (neat) colorful large and somewhat smaller sculptures and is well groomed
