Top 5 Locations for Photoshoots in Southwest Virginia

Portraits

1. Hahn Horticulture Gardens

One of my all time favorite spots in the NRV and conveniently located on Virginia Tech’s campus, this has to be easily one of my favorite photoshoot locations for all types of sessions. The landscaping in the gardens provides a beautiful variety of flowers and greenery all year long!

2. Heritage Community Park

169 Acres of natural area with beautiful mountain views, a pond, meadows strewn with wildflowers, and more! What more could you ask for!

3. Pandapas Pond

This 1 mile loop around a pond is particularly gorgeous in the Fall! The reflection of all the laves in the water create such a beautiful backdrop for any type of photo session.

4. Appalachian Trail

My family loves to hike and we often come across the most gorgeous locations along the trail- spots where, most likely, no other photographer will be able to recommend!

5. Stone Crop Farm

My favorite flower farm in the NRV! If you love flowers like me, you’ll love having this flower farm as the backdrop of your photos. With different varieties of flowers growing all year, it is also on the side of the mountain facing the sunset, creating the perfect spot for photos!
