Location thoughts debunked!


Location for your photo session - NPS Photography

Location, location, location! Yep, this is 100% true if you are looking for a place to live or opening up a retail space, but when it come to locations for your photo session – it’s not that important.

I know some photographers will tell you this is blasphemous – I’m here to assure you it’s not!

Iconic Locations in Any Area

We all like “pretty” locations – flowers or lots of green or maybe something historic or iconic in our photos. I frequently have clients that are moving and want to remember where they once lived with something “iconic” in their photos – like the Washington Monument in DC.

And if that’s the reason for your session, than location is 100% important!

The PERFECT spot!

But, if you really want the perfect location where you are most comfortable…choose an in-home session! That’s right, you don’t have to go anywhere! WHat could be better than that?

Light is SO Important!

And guess what? Your home has great light! All I need is a window – bonus for lots of windows and a front door, but one window works just fine!

Often, I have clients who say, “Oh! We have a great backyard!” And that’s amazing and if the light cooperates we can absolutely get a few shots outside.

So, when it comes to locations, trust me! Your home will be perfect!

And if you really want an outdoor session, get on my email list! I offer a limited number of outdoor sessions every year!
