We love a good photo location. And lucky for us, Southeast Louisiana is packed with some seriously beautiful state parks that make photo sessions feel super relaxed and natural. Whether you’re booking a family session, senior pics, or engagement photos, these parks are some of our go-to spots.
We’re lucky to be based right near some of the most photogenic parks in the state! Here are a few Southeast Louisiana gems we love bringing our clients to:
Fontainebleau State Park – Mandeville, LA
A longtime fave. From the dreamy moss-covered oaks to the beachfront and pier, Fontainebleau gives you all the vibes. It’s perfect for families, engagements, seniors—you name it. The lighting here? Unreal.
Fairview-Riverside State Park – Madisonville, LA
This quiet riverside park has huge trees, a gorgeous dock, and a slower pace that makes sessions feel super relaxed. We love it for romantic couple sessions or peaceful family shoots. It’s cozy, calm, and totally charming—like a little hidden nook that photographs beautifully every time.
Bogue Chitto State Park – Franklinton, LA
Rolling hills, bluff overlooks, and peaceful creeks? Yes please. Bogue Chitto has a little bit of everything, especially if you want a more woodsy, off-the-beaten-path feel to your photos.
