Talking looking for great locations.... - 01-04-2010, 11:20 AM


I am designing an outdoor/indoor photography site inspired by great locations. What are your favorite locations for portraits... urban, country, rusty old cars, foliage/gardens, and creeks? I am looking for inspiration for designs. Send me your best ideas. This will be a multi style location designed with the intent for shooting families, seniors, brides, etc.


All suggestions are encouraged and welcomed
Including possible on-site hair and make-up artists as well.
What do you want to see?

Not to be too obvious about it, but nearly anything can be an interesting photo subject, if properly handled. That means that nearly any location can have qualifying subject matter, unless you define things down a bit further into more narrow categories. If you want suggestions specific to landscape images, then you need to define that, because someone else's perfect location might be best suited for macro work, or just about any other subject that pleases them.

Speaking for myself, I want to see interesting images, and I don't particularly care what the exact subject is.

Thanks, I am an event planner and designer, looking to change things up a bit as my boys grow. I am not as familiar with the different styles of photography or the lingo. I grew up with parents that were wedding photographers, and recently took photograhy up myself. I am learning as I go. I want to understand the art of photography as much as possible.. professional/amateur photographers will be my future clients.

Your advice was helpful.
