Portrait Sessions in Winter
As an on-location photographer I'm asked about the best location for Winter Sessions. I suggest town centers, downtown's, parks with interesting textures and features, or even a client's home. The great thing about living in Texas is that it may be cold one day and warm the next. For example as I'm typing this post it's 31° and Saturday's forecast is calling for 70°.
Here are some locations that make great backgrounds especially for Winter.
Downtown Grapevine has many spots that make great backgrounds such as this log cabin.
Grapevine's Train Depot
Town centers such as Parker Square, Shops at Highland Village, or Southlake Town Center.
Old Buildings
Bridges
Client homes may have nice features, for example this garage makes a nice background.
What should you wear for Winter sessions? Scarves, colorful coats/jackets, sweaters, hats, etc...really pop from the brown and neutral tones of Winter.
