Best Locations Around Topsail For Family Portraits!

The beach will always be a wonderful spot for photo ops of any kind…but what portrait locations are we a little too quick to glance over? Where are some prominent spots in Topsail, less famous than the beach, sure, but with all the more potential for that perfect pic? If you’re looking to dodge the standard and scope out a more distinctive option for your portraits, I’ve got you covered. 

1. Woods
The woods are one of the most classic yet versatile backgrounds there is to offer! Whether in the free spirit of an open grass field or the intimacy of a dense forest, wooded areas in parks and trails of the Topsail area put forward the perfect opportunity to capture your Family Portraits.

2. Marshes
If you like the coastal atmosphere of beach photoshoots but still want that change in scenery, a marsh might be the location for you! This mellow beach alternative provides calm waters as the tide rolls in, and lush, tall grasses swaying behind as the wind blows. Speaking of wind, marshes yield a much kinder breeze in comparison to the beach: no messy hair and no props getting carried away. What better opportunity to embrace the natural beauty of this regional wetland than by making it your portrait location?

3. Our Portrait Studio

Once you figure out your preferred location, the only other thing left to do is pack up your family, and show up on time (especially if outdoors - natural lighting is fleeting and precious).
