Whether you're a returning client, or a new one, location is a big topic when discussing your shoot. Often, it will depend on where you live, what season it is, what time of day we are shooting, or what you prefer for a backdrop. While we will always give our suggestions based off of your answers, we do know no matter where you ultimately choose, whether a new spot for you, us, or the same one from previous shoots you've had, we will ALWAYS make the most of where we are and will always enjoy creating something new no matter where we go.
We have clients who have returned to the same location year after year, sometimes even repeating outfits as younger siblings come along, and is it neat to see how the areas have grown or developed. While sometimes we know there is fear that if by going to the same location, your images will all start to repeat themselves, that is certainly not the case.
HOWEVER...with this amazing family, not living close, and having two little ones, we have chosen Stauffer Park up in Lancaster for their family shoots... It is a super versatile location, that offers a different feel for every season. While we do hope to find more areas like this, coming back to this park for their most recent shoot felt entirely new minus one spot that we HAD to take a moment for because of this...
Progression shots! Oh how we love a good run of progression shots! These moments are so special as not only do we love to reminisce but families get to look back on how fast their babies grow!
So don't be afraid to go back to the same location. Or if you want to try somewhere new we are always up for that too! (Don't be afraid to toss some suggestions our way too!) Ultimately it's the memories made within the shoot that make the moments. And we are fortunate to have SO many wonderful ones with this family as well as our other Whitman's Wish families. And we want to say "thank you" for the opportunity to work with you and for your trust with our ideas, suggestions (especially with our last minute location/time changes due to weather), and with us capturing these memories for your family!
