1. A spacious modern home tucked away in the Lazybrook/Timbergrove area

We’ll start our list with this versatile location that’s ideal for food and lifestyle bloggers. The bright kitchen with wide countertops is great for showing off your cooking skills, although you’ll need to get the host’s permission if you plan to cook on site. You’ll also have access to other parts of the house, including several bedrooms, a spacious bathroom, and the backyard. If you need a venue where you can get a variety of shots, this well-kept home is an affordable choice!

2. A roomy minimalist loft in Greater Eastwood

Yoga instructors, musicians, and creative performers of all kinds will love the natural lighting and hardwood floors in this spacious, minimalist loft. Centrally located in Greater Eastwood, this location is great for a photo or video shoot, or you host an event for up to 15 people. It’s close to the University of Houston, as well as features a full kitchen, dining table, bedroom, and movable wall!

3. A chic, contemporary apartment in Pearland

Podcasters, YouTubers, and craft bloggers will fit right in at this chic, well-decorated venue. With couches, bar stools, and a table that seats eight, this location can stand in for a home office, living room, or kitchen. The white walls and simple decor make it easy to show off a product line or get headshots in front of a naturally lit backdrop. You’ll have access to the kitchen and built-in lighting, but if you need to rent more furniture or gear, ask your host if they can recommend a vendor, or call up the Peerspace Concierge service to create a customized package.

4. A bright, photogenic kitchen in Greater Heights

This spotless kitchen is another great option for Instagram photo ideas in Houston. With a wide counter and cozy seating alcove, the plain white walls and simple decor are perfect for a portrait or fashion shoot or to show off a recipe on your food blog. It’s a good choice for shoots that don’t require an entire home or full-sized studio.

5. A posh meeting room with a spectacular view in Sharpstown

Working professionals and career bloggers will feel right at home in this luxury conference room on the 12th floor. Classier than a coworking space, this spacious meeting room works well for a shoot with an individual model or with your entire team. Floral arrangements, gift baskets, and other products will also show up well in this elegant and brightly lit space. You’ll even have a view of the Houston skyline through the windows!

6. A well-lit creative studio in downtown Houston

There are some shots that you just can’t get in a house. Whether it’s too cramped or doesn’t get enough natural light, sometimes you need a full-sized studio space to get the images that you’re looking for. This 1600-sq.ft. loft has room for you to move things around and create the right look and feel for your shoot. Whether you want to set up a bed, a dining room table, or a plain white backdrop, this venue offers high ceilings and plenty of windows for a well-lit shoot.

Remember, you can always ask your host for recommendations if you need more furniture or lighting equipment for your Instagram photo ideas in Houston. If you need additional help, reach out to the Peerspace Concierge service to see if they can find you the gear that you need. You can also consider hiring a florist or interior decorator to get the perfect look for your pictures.

7. A rustic, Western-inspired venue in Conroe

This rustic venue situated on 10 acres is full of quaint Texas charm. While great for a wedding or formal dinner, it also works well for individual photoshoots. You won’t have to compete with tourists to get beautiful shots in front of the open air chapel, gazebo, two-acre pond, and Old Western Town that’s been used as a movie set. Rent this venue if you’re looking for unique Instagram photo ideas in Houston that you can make happen outdoors.

8. A versatile, blank-canvas home perfect for productions

Looking for a home to take pictures in without any furniture to get in your way? This spacious house has been designed specifically for photoshoots, with three rooms intended to highlight the natural lighting. Choose from a room with white brick walls and white curtains, or stage a scene in the clawfoot bathtub. You can also access the outdoor pool for an added fee.

9. A tropical tiki bar in Pearland

Your friends will think you’ve gone on a tropical vacation when you post pics from this picturesque outdoor venue with a tiki bar, pool, hot tub, waterfall, and more. This is a great alternative to renting out a full-sized hotel or entertainment venue. Rent it for a photoshoot, or host a party so you can get a crowd of people having fun in the background of your shots.
