Ah, fall. It\u2019s the most lovely time of year for us Midwesterners: cooler temps, fabulous tree colors, and . . . perhaps some family photos! We have some top-tier photographers in our area, but whether you\u2019re meeting with a pro or having a friend grab your photo, there\u2019s no shortage of spots to get gorgeous shots! Here are some of my favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michaud-Sinninger Woods Nature Preserve: West Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few years ago (when I had darker, less-grey hair) we did family photos in this fabulous spot. The golden backdrop was just gorgeous!<\/p>\n\n\n

Celery Bog Nature Area and Lilly Nature Center: West Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two years ago, we met the lovely Jen Ritchie at the Celery Bog Nature Area where she grabbed a variety of great family shots!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

McCormick Woods Trail: West Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This one is a bit of an adventure. If you\u2019ve got time, go to the VERY back of the trail and you\u2019ll end up just on the edge of the Purdue Golf Course. It\u2019s such a beautiful, pristine green backdrop for your shots!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Happy Hollow Park: West Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who doesn\u2019t love the trails through Happy Hollow? Or perhaps you want some goofy shots of your kids playing in the creek bed. You\u2019ll have endless choices here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Horticulture Park near Purdue University: West Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many moons ago I was in a wedding, and the wedding party photos were taken at Hort Park. It was July, and it was lovely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rhiele Plaza and Pedestrian Bridge: Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of you might prefer more of an urban feel for those fall photos. Rhiele Plaza includes some great opportunities in front of the historic train depot, as well as on the bridge!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moses Fowler House: Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stairs, stairs, stairs! If you have a large group photo, the Moses Fowler House has lovely gardens and outdoor spaces. It\u2019s a great mix of urban and natural!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hahn Museum of Indiana Art: Lafayette<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t know, not only is the Hahn Museum lovely, but so is the garden area behind the home. There are some incredible sculptures out there, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fairfield Lakes Park: near Dayton<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How about some water shots<\/a>? If the sky is bright, you will probably grab some great cloud reflections, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are dozens of great locations for photos in Greater Lafayette. Whether you need new headshots, or engagement photos, or family pictures, you will find great locations all around the area!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
