Phoenix, Arizona is full of hidden gems and beautiful locations. The best part of booking a portrait session is consulting with my client and choosing a location that is the right fit for their senior or family pictures. To help find the perfect location for photos, I have put together a list of some of my favorite areas in the Phoenix area.

Gilbert Riparian Preserve
Gilbert Riparian Preserve has so much to offer. From the cacti garden full of Saguaros to beautiful walking trails with overhanging trees. The lake is amazing and has a really cool vibe. You would never know it was on a corner of a busy intersection.
Queen Creek Wash
This location is gorgeous year round but in the Fall it is stunning. In late November & December, the leaves are bright yellow and you’d never know you were in the middle of the desert. From Spring to October the leaves are the perfect green and that beautiful light shining through is the perfect peek of the golden hour!
Veteran’s Oasis
So many options here! With a lake, desert trails, and a charming creek.
San Tan Mountain Regional Park
This location offers a beautiful desert landscape with fun hiking trails and is easy to access if you’re in the East Valley.
Water Treatment Plant Service Road
This location is literally right off a main road but has the vibe of a rural country road. It is a tucked away gem so you won’t find the same crowds as other locations.
Downtown Gilbert
I love Downtown Gilbert because I’m obsessed with white! If you aren’t digging the Desert location feels, but love more urban than you’ll love the crisp white background and charming cafe lights strung in this cute downtown Gilbert alleyway.
The Farm at Agritopia
Lots of green and lots of charm! It’s a working farm nestled in the middle of gardens and homes.
Saquaro Lake
Love the lake because there is so much to offer. From the occasional wild horse to the desert landscapes, it’s so beautiful!
Arizona Science Center
There is something about clean light walls that make me so happy. This location has so many options, but most of them come for this concrete wall.
Mesa Arts Center
Give me ALL the color! This location is perfect if you love color and non-landscape vibes.
