Location Guide
YOUR GUIDE TO CHOOSING A LOCATION FOR PHOTOS THAT YOU WILL CHERISH FOREVER
BEFORE WE DIVE DEEP INTO SHARING ALL OF OUR FAVORITE LOCATIONS WITH YOU, WE HAVE A FEW THINGS WE WANT YOU TO KEEP IN MIND:
- If you have a specific location in mind that is not on here - that is totally fine! These are just suggestions! We love using new spots as well, especially if they have sentimental value.
- These locations are merely the background of your images, your family will be the real focus!
- This location guide is not just about choosing what looks prettiest, but also to help inform you how accessible and "easy" a location is. There is absolutely no shame in choosing a location that is your favorite simply because it is close to home!
- Locations are listed in no particular order of significance.
