5 Location ideas for your Senior Pictures in the Lehigh Valley
You have a lot of decisions coming up this year and choosing the right location for your Senior Photos can be challenging. The location helps set the tone for your photos and tell your story. You want your photos to be a reflection on who you are at this time in your life to look back on. Here are 5 location ideas for your Senior Photos along with my recommendations of locations around the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania to help make the process as easy as possible!
In the City
If you’d like a more urban or edgy feel to your photos, setting up a session in the city is the perfect location. Parking garages, graffiti alleyways, tall buildings, there are nearly endless ideas to capture that big city vibe.. Individualize your session by stopping in a local coffee shop or vintage clothing boutique!
I recommend:
Easton Silk Mill
Bethlehem Steel Stacks
Nature
The next and probably most popular spot for photos is the great outdoors. Fields, state parks, and hiking trails are all great options any time of the year. Really personalize the location by bringing props that help tie in the locations. Avid hunter/fisherman? Bring your bow or poles along! Trail rider? bring your dirt bike or ATV!
I recommend:
Lehigh Valley Nature Preserve
Allentown Rose Gardens
Lehigh Gorge State Park
Arcade
A location that is sometimes overlooked but always produces fun results, the local arcade! This spot is perfect for the gamer with its bright lights and fun colors. Or even if you’re going for a more retro aesthetic, this playful location is great for making your photos pop!
I recommend:
Back to The Arcade
Country Junction Arcade
Sports field
If your weeks consist of being at the field more than at your house, this is the perfect location for you. Having your session at the field house or baseball diamond will be sure to capture the essence of your high school career. Bring along your uniform and gear to get photos of you really in your element.
Skate park
Bring along your skateboard or rollerblades to your session and really show your stuff at the skate park! The ramps and rails give a perfect dynamic backdrop. As an added bonus, if you’re not crazy about the idea of having your photos taken, taking a few runs through the park can help ease your nerves all while capturing you doing what you love!
I recommend:
The Bethlehem Skateplaza
Jordan Park Skatepark
Lower Macungie Skatepark
