2025 Travel Photoshoot Ideas for Every Occasion

Travel

Let’s make 2025 the year you say yes to an unforgettable photo and travel experience! Whether it’s beachy Cape Coral, creative Nashville, or the mountain magic of Flathead Lake, your senior deserves more than just a milestone gift—they deserve memories that last a lifetime. If you’re planning celebrations or family vacations this year, this blog is for you! I’ve put together travel photoshoot ideas for every occasion to help you decide on the perfect location.

Cape Coral, FL

At the end of May and early June, I’ll be heading to Cape Coral, Florida where white, sandy beaches and swaying palm trees make every photo look like it belongs in a magazine. If salty air and the sound of waves crashing against the shore are your vibe, photos on the beach are perfect!  As an added bonus, there’s no shortage of things to do—parents can relax on the beach or explore Cape Coral’s waterfront dining or couples can plan a romantic picnic on the beach. Cape Coral is more than just a destination—it’s the perfect excuse to kick off summer in style. 

Nashville, TN

Nashville, TN is one of my all time favorite places to visit & I couldn’t be more excited to be heading back to Music City in 2025!  Music City is more than honky-tonks and hot chicken—it’s a city bursting with creativity, character, and unforgettable photo spots. From the city skyline to iconic country music landmarks, there’s endless potential for photos in Nashville. During two separate trips, I was able to capture senior photos of my daughter and brand photos for good friend & local realtor as well.  It’s an incredibly versatile location regardless of the type of shoot you’d like to book. If you’d like to join me when we venture back to the Volunteer State for her 21st, contact me here & I’ll send you all the info!

Flathead, MT

For seniors who crave a little adventure and jaw-dropping scenery, or families seeking a relaxing getaway Flathead Lake is the place to be. Tucked away in Montana’s stunning Big Sky Country, this destination offers crystal-clear waters, dramatic mountain backdrops, and a sense of serenity you just can’t find anywhere else. Whether we’re capturing moments on a rocky lakeshore, in a field of wildflowers, or under a canopy of evergreens, Flathead Lake delivers the kind of natural beauty that feels straight out of a postcard. It’s the perfect setting for adventurous seniors who love the great outdoors. And parents? You’ll love soaking in the peace and quiet while exploring nearby Glacier National Park or charming small towns.

Charleston, SC

Charleston stole my heart the moment I arrived in this charming Southern town many years ago! Since then, I’ve made it my mission to revisit as many times as I can, both as a tourist and as a destination photographer.  From brand photos on Rainbow Row to sweet 16 and senior sessions, Charleston has never disappointed! The cobblestone streets & carriage rides would make for the ultimate romantic getaway for a babymoon or engagement session. I’m telling you– the possibilities are endless! (And as an added bonus, it’s a foodie haven, so be sure to treat yourself to local favorites like shrimp and grits while you’re in town.)
