Hey guys, Ryan here at Signature Edits and today I'm gonna be sharing my top 10

Transition words & phrases

photography locations with you. You got it. Because when it comes to planning a

Adverbs of manner

photo shoot, finding a great location can be the trickiest part. Especially if

you've kind of used up all the spots around your town. I mean if you're in a

small town it can be even trickier. If you're in a big city maybe have some

more advantages, but there's also disadvantages. For instance, there's no

nature near you. We're gonna look at ten spots that almost every single town will

have that are my go-to is when it comes to planning a portrait or fashion

editorial, or even an engagement or wedding shoot. Let's dive in and I'll

Alright, so photoshoot location number one is textured walls. Honestly a boring

old wall can be the perfect background because it doesn't draw attention away

from your subject plus walls reflect and bounce lights, so your subject will

likely get some backlight or wrap around light reflected on the wall. So whether

it's a plain wall or a colored wall to add more interest just keep an eye open

when you pass buildings and you look for interesting textures or colors or even a

plain texture of color or an interesting light. For instance this wall would

actually be pretty ugly by itself but because of the angle of the light coming

down here it looks really great. Photoshoot location number two:

industrial parks. So this is kind of going off of where do I find walls in

the first place industrial parks is a perfect place to find interesting

textures and colors and geometry and leading lines. All sorts of things.

Because there's so much going on in industrial parks and because they're not

kept up to look perfect and pretty. So here we've got... I don't even know, it

might be a trash bin or it might just be a aluminum sided door. Whatever it is

it's very interesting for photos and lends itself greatly. So you can find

different lighting, different textures especially if you can get a big

warehouse you've got some nice depth there to work with. Or even finding

equipment (Obviously without breaking any laws or rules) You want to be careful

about this but it can be a perfect place to find interesting photo shoot

locations. Photo shoot location number three is greenhouses. So if you're in a

small town maybe you don't instantly have a greenhouse in mind that you have

access to, but almost every town I know of has some kind of a grower or a

nursery for plants. Chances are there is one near you you just might not know

about it yet most of these places have public access or if they don't you can

ask and they will gladly let you in their name in exchange for sending a few

photos. You'd be amazed what you can ask get just by asking! And why are

greenhouses great? Because they have so many different colors textures and the

lighting is fantastic because you've got really soft light coming from all angles

because there's so many windows in a greenhouse. Photoshoot location number

four is graffiti. So finding spots with graffiti. If you're

struggling the local skateboard park is pretty much a sure bet. And again it's

just all about color and texture and interest in your photos. Here I really

love this guy because it's color-coordinated so you have that

background assisting in the photo - it's not just random. In the same way these

two are wearing kind of punk s clothing so it really blends with the background

of the graffiti. Number five for photoshoot locations that are my go-to s

is water. Pretty much anywhere with water. If you're by the ocean go to the ocean,

if you're by lake go to the lake, if you're by a river you got it go to the

river because you've got so many reflections coming off the water you've

got different puddles going on you've got textures and there's something about

water that is just vibey so find water and you're pretty much going for a sure

thing if you have an ocean near you maybe you've got a harbor you can go to

or a marina those are fantastic places both for interesting buildings and also

for textures going on in colors with different boats and leading lines

because you've got the symmetry of the docks

same thing if you're even inland and you don't have access to the ocean go to a

little marina somewhere you've got all the boats lined up and perhaps vistas of

the city in the background you don't necessarily even need a lake or a river

just keep your eye open maybe there's a puddle near the spot you're already

shooting and you can get some interesting reflections off of there

photoshoot location number five is rooftops rooftops are pretty much the

sweetest thing ever why well maybe it's just because we

weren't allowed but to get up on them when we were kids but even though access

can sometimes be a little difficult once you find a spot they're pretty much

quiet and private to the extreme you also get a view from above so it doesn't

have to be a rooftop necessarily you can maybe even just use a Ledge or a high

sidewalk whatever it is but basically you just want to get high and no I don't

mean in like the recreational sense I mean high elevation wise photoshoot

location number seven my go-to is find a staircase staircases are absolutely

fantastic spots for portraits because they give lots of natural leading lines

and often have interesting angles and textures going on so sitting standing

walking up walking down it really doesn't matter you have so many

different angles as well as action shots that you can get when you're on a

stairway photos location number eight is parking lots so pretty much every town

in the world has a park if not a parking garage to work with and

those are fantastic places why because they're dry because they tend to be

pretty private and because you have those interesting textures and angles

and an architecture to work with so they combine multiple locations in one really

you're getting a rooftop staircases an industrial setting interesting textures

lots of depth and geometry and as a bonus parking lots are pretty much the

perfect spot if the light outside is terrible because the light inside a

parking lot is most of the time pretty soft photoshoot location number nine is

any place that is broken down pretty much look for old stuff there's

something cool about old stuff that's just cool so hipsters have already

nailed that one as we know old junk shops or even pawn shops are fantastic

places to just find old stuff and go around their photo shoot location number

10 head on in to nature you don't necessarily have to have a cool vibe a

spot to take amazing photos you can head out into what God has already created

for us awesome trees rivers tint bushes whatever you

name it head out into a field and get creative alright so that does it for our

top 10 photography locations that are easily accessible to pretty much

everybody on this planet I hope this was helpful for you and it helps to spark

some ideas when it comes to finding locations of your own just looking for

interesting textures colors locations geometry places that are gonna have

great light and just adding something interesting to tie in your photos and

tell a story whether it's a textured wall industrial parks greenhouses

graffiti water rooftops staircases parking lots

pretty much anything old or broken down or a good old fashioned mother nature

you never have to run out of photoshoot locations again alright if you have a
