Location Spotlight

One of the most common questions I hear from families is about location. If you’re not planning to have your family photo session at your home or my studio, don’t worry—I have a solution! My pre-scouted location library is here to help.

For years, I’ve explored various regions of Southern California, capturing potential photo session spots. This extensive and ever-growing library ensures I can offer unique and beautiful locations for your session. Today, I want to spotlight a particular gem that’s north of Los Angeles. This spot provides a wild, natural vibe, contrasting beautifully with manicured parks and offering a unique backdrop for your photos.

Here are three behind-the-scenes tips to help you understand why this location is special:

1. Seasonal Timing Matters: I meticulously organize each location by month, year, and time of day. This helps us understand how natural factors like sunlight and seasonal changes affect the look and feel of the spot. For example, the angle of the sun in different seasons can significantly impact the best time of day for your session.

2. Landscape Variations: The visual differences throughout the year are striking. From lush greenery in the spring to the stark, rugged beauty of stoney hillsides in the summer, each season offers a unique backdrop. I will guide you through the pros and cons of your top 2-3 location choices, ensuring you make an informed decision.

3. Optimal Timing for Low Foot Traffic: Strategizing the best time to avoid pedestrian foot traffic is crucial, especially in public locations. While I can’t control external factors, my extensive experience has taught me valuable lessons. I know the best times to visit these spots to minimize interruptions and maximize the serene, uninterrupted moments we can capture. This resourceful perspective helps set us up for a win, ensuring a smoother and more enjoyable photo session.

My goal is to handle all the details you might not even consider, providing you with my expert knowledge to select the best location for your family session. Part of my service is to do the legwork in advance, offering you pre-approved options that save time and ensure a smooth, enjoyable experience.
