Urban settings mingle with nature at this lively location. We love this spot because there are so many elements to explore and use as backdrops in close proximity to each other. There are lots of nooks and crannies for the kiddos to explore and find a spot they want to be photographed in. Being located in Lodo, it is an accessible part of downtown that also offers a wide array of photo locations.
