Ideas: Photography Spots

I have found some awesome areas in SLC and Utah County that I think would make great spots for engagements or bridals/groomals.

The first one is called Garden Park Ward. It is in SLC and is free! Here is a link to a bride and groom who got their groomals taken there. I love the different walls, the grass, the bridge...I just think it'd be a great spot to get some great pictures!



 The next place is the Provo Mental State hospital. I know, sounds weird...but there is an amphitheater in the back, with a pond area...and its amazing the "castle" feel that it gives to the pictures.  My friend Summer got her groomals done there, and it was just a fun spot to go.




 A really cool place in SLC is the Memory Grove Park. Its full of tons of different cool architectural spots, along with a lot of tree and grass areas. The images I've seen from this place just look so great. Here is a link to a photo shoot done there. I love the style of this photographer, by the way.










  The last place I wanna talk about is the International Peace Garden. This place has a lot to offer. I had never heard of it til I started searching out places. I think its a little treasure that people need to know about! Here are a few blogs that show it off well, click here and here and here.
 


When you're trying to find photography places, find something you love and something that has many different areas that will create lots of different backgrounds. There are a lot of places that are free to take shoots at, so if you want save money find those spots! It helps also to find photographers who have taken pictures in those places before, that way they know the good spots. If both you and the photographer are new to the place, go take a look at it before the shoot and write down areas and poses you want done!
