Outdoor Locations for Lifestyle Family Photography
From gorgeous riverside beaches, to open fields, to groves of tress and stunning view points, Terwillegar Park has it all! I absolutely love photographing at this location because of its versatility. There is truly something for everyone here. Not to mention it is also dog friendly!

2. Millcreek
The Millcreek Ravine is perfect for families who want to get playful. In the warm Spring and Summer months the creek provides an excellent opportunity for splashing, throwing rocks, and exploring nature. There is also a playground near by, so the fun never really stops! I love this location because it always brings out the adventurous soul in all of us, plus there are endless activities to keep busy little ones entertained.

The Wildlife Underpass just off of the Anthony Henday is a great location if you a looking to have a mix of images in both a natural and urban setting. On the way to the underpass there is a fun little network of trails to explore with plenty of groves of trees and beautiful fields. Plus, it is only a short walk so even little legs can make the trek! The underpass itself offers some awesome graffiti, so it definitely has the ‘cool’ factor covered. There are plenty of opportunities to explore, as well as have little moments of discovery. This location couldn’t be more diverse!
