🌳 Cator Woolford Garden
These stunning and vibrant gardens are open to the public for everyone to enjoy. They often host various events on select weekends, so it’s important to call ahead and confirm availability to ensure that you can capture beautiful photos during your visi
🏙️📮 Piedmont Park
Famous for its stunning and iconic Atlanta skyline, this wonderful spot is perfect for anyone looking to capture some beautiful city photos amidst a sprawling field. The park is public and tends to get quite busy on the weekends, so I highly recommend scheduling your shoot during the weekdays or in the early morning hours.
🌳📮🥾 The Chattahoochee - Ruins off The Silver Comet Trail or Sope Creek
Both of these spots require a 5-10 minute walk through some woods, so wear good walking shoes to start and bring shoes to change into if you’re wanting a different look. There are old mill ruins at both spots and the option to get into or stand by the river.
