New locations are something I love to seek for and discover. I’ve done so many senior sessions at Dow Gardens I’ve lost track! And the last thing I want to do is take the same pictures in the same spots all around Dow Gardens.  So, a few days before Jada’s senior session, I went there with my family to scope out some new locations. And we found some! Have you ever been to Dow Gardens? It seems like each time I go I discover a new trail or hidden pathway I had never seen before. Jada’s session was a bit off the normal-for-me beaten path, and I’m so glad we branched out a bit from the norm.

This first location was a place my husband has never even been to before at Dow Gardens. I love these little hidden paths and stairs and bridges! And isn’t she gorgeous?

These stairs were actually just behind her in the last shot. I got on the bridge above her for this beautiful picture of Jada.

We wound our way around a pond and found this gorgeous willow-like tree. Those branches make for a lovely backdrop.

We also took some pictures near the red bridges there. This was taken right by the water.

These next two are a couple of my faves!

And you can never go wrong with a bunch of sunflowers.

Jada is a natural in front of the camera. She made my job easy.

Next time I blog, I’ll show you the second half of her session downtown. See you then!
