Indoor shots are never taken as good as if it was taken in Bellamy Loft! You may think we’re exaggerating, but check out their website and see what we mean. They have a spacious venue that is just perfect for whatever you and your partner desire and bring it to life. Suppose that doesn’t sound convincing yet, how about this.

You can never go wrong with nature. It not only flexibility but also a sense of character and coziness on the shoot. Besides this, it’s worth noting that greens, blues, and browns are good colour contrast to people. Earl Bales Park is a large park located in North York. It is named after Robert Earl Bales, a former Reeve of North York. Besides the lush greeneries, the West Don River runs through it as well.

Best in spring and fall, the colours give off a certain vibe which can add more personality and story to your photos. Try to come a bit earlier, though, as since this is a park, people tend to regularly drop by and perform certain activities or just relax by the river.

We must admit, we couldn’t get enough of the fantastic outdoor photoshoot locations in North York. Coming third on this list is Edwards Gardens. Located adjacent to Toronto Botanical Garden, this location remains a crowd favourite for any kind of photoshoot. The garden houses various perennials, wildflowers and other flowers present in the North. Besides this, they have this excessive rockery area by the valley.

Besides the natural sceneries and landscape, the structures in the site also blend in, giving off a mix of nature and modern times all in one place. Fantastic during fall, but this venue is best during spring when flowers are in full bloom.

4.Gibson House Museum

Enough of the outdoor locations. Here is one of the most magical and historically rich places in North York. The Gibson House Museum is a historical museum that showcases and provides insight into the lives of a family who lived here during the 20th Century. A prime example of Georgian living, the place is amazing even from the outside—with its red brick exterior wall contrasted by white columns and front porch details. The best time to visit is during the winter season when the house is lightly covered in snow, giving off a warm and cozy feeling to just anyone.

Inside is a museum, so it’s best to ask for permission first before actually going there for a shoot. Also, to get help from the team who runs the place and be there on off-hours to make the most out of place.

Black Creek Pioneer Village is a go-to place for a photoshoot, and we’re not, even a bit, wondering why. The site is magnificent, offering facilities that depict structures from the early 1860s in Ontario. With historical value as-is, the photos are taken here with a sense of rustic and naturalness in them. Refreshing compared to the usual city-life.

Besides their amenities and structures, they also have extensive activities that can be done in the area. You may go back at another time and enjoy these. For now, the best time for the shoot is early when the location is not too busy. If you’re lucky, you may have it done at the golden hour, especially during fall. The results will be superb.
