WELCOME TO THE
When deciding on places to take pictures in McKinney TX, I believe the location has as much importance as all the other elements involved in achieving a beautiful family photo session. In my approach, the location, lighting, color palette and wardrobe all play an equally important role in transforming photos into works of art.
Favorite Places to Take Pictures in Mckinney TX
The great outdoors will always be my first location of choice as a backdrop for all of my photo sessions. It’s timeless and breathtakingly stunning during golden hour. For my Summer Photo Sessions, this gorgeous spot is one of my favorite places to take pictures in Mckinney TX.
My Location Guide
This garden park is a hidden gem. The spot gives life to some of the most beautiful pink and white blooms during Summer. Upon booking, my Petite and Full Session clients receive my helpful Location Guide to aid in choosing a location for their upcoming photo session. It’s important to me that I deliver a seamless client experience by providing informative resources & assistance that is intended to make preparing for their session easy. Being well-prepared for a session almost always guarantees a beautiful outcome in imagery.
90% of my Summertime Clients Summer Sessions opted to be photographed at this lovely garden in McKinney TX. This is one of my favorite locations near the area. Most of the parks in Mckinney during Summer are void of any flowers when the Texas heat goes into full effect!
If you appreciate florals and serenity this would be the perfect spot for your Summer Photo Session. This garden provides a stunning backdrop. There’s also an abundance of shade that allow for reprieve from the Sun as it sets. As this Summer comes to an end, the flowers will fade. I’ll then be moving on to photographing at other beautiful locations that embody the beauty of nature during Fall/Winter.
Arbor Hills Nature Preserve is one of those locations! A true stunner during the Fall with it’s rustic landscape. Another one of my seasonal favorites.
