If you’re a photographer, you may have had this question on your mind: how can I find photoshoot locations? Alternatively, perhaps you are a clothing designer who has spent hundreds of hours conceiving, designing, and manufacturing an upcoming clothing line. Finally, each piece of the collection is complete. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve hired a famous fashion photographer with a vision and found the perfect models to wear your pieces in a way that makes them look fabulous. The final piece of the marketing puzzle is to photograph the collection, but where? Location is not an afterthought. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, it is an integral element of the overall branding of the collection because location must subtly complement the collection by answering the question: What is our target audience? Once you have an idea of a type of location you\u2019re looking for, you have to find it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An experienced photographer knows that Peerspace is the comprehensive internet marketplace for photoshoot locations in hundreds of cities and towns. The Peerspace search engine is the photographer\u2019s secret tool in finding the perfect location. Continue reading to learn how to find photoshoot locations on Peerspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evening dresses belong in a mansion <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What if that clothing designer we introduced earlier has produced a line of evening dresses and would like to photograph the collection in an appropriate setting that is convenient to her offices in New York City? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can demonstrate how to find photoshoot locations with this easy example: She visits the Peerspace search engine and simply answers the questions \u201cwhat are you planning?\u201d (answer: photoshoot) and \u201cwhere?\u201d (answer: New York). Peerspace will return hundreds of photo shoot locations that are available for rental on the East Coast in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

In order to narrow down the options to venues that are more appropriate for photographing a line of evening dresses, she can enter keywords into the search engine filter to narrow down the options such as \u201cmansion\u201d or \u201ccastle.\u201d And that is how she finds the perfect place to photograph her collection: this elegant lakeside castle in Pequannock Township, New Jersey. While it is conveniently close to New York City, it could also be a world away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider this description of the castle: \u201cThe main lobby features 55-foot ceilings, dual floating marble staircases, a fireplace, and several grand chandeliers. There are marble floors throughout, and the lobby has an ornate center medallion of different colored marbles… with balconies overlooking the water.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The photos of the location confirm that the staircases are flooded with light from above, which is perfect for photography. Also the grounds of the mansion are breathtaking: \u201cThe castle is surrounded by two natural lakes where you might catch our resident family of white swans if you’re lucky. There is a peninsula available for outdoor affairs, and a gondola (complete with a gondolier!) available for hire.\u201d So there are several scenarios in which the collection of evening dresses could be photographed inside the mansion as well as on the grounds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social media influencers need a variety of locations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

And now for a completely different example of how to find photoshoot locations on Peerspace. Our subject is a social media influencer and travel blogger with a big presence on Instagram and TikTok. Her thousands of followers subscribe to her daily stories as she posts fun content about her travels around the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to maintain her social media presence, she must post at least one story each day for her followers. It\u2019s not always easy, and sometimes she feels she is on a content creation treadmill, constantly expected to find new and exciting locations from which to produce her daily stories. Luckily, she has discovered Peerspace and can find interesting locations in most cities and towns as she travels around the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And all locations are available for rental by the hour, making it cost-effective as she travels from town to town. Our social media star recently discovered that Dallas, Texas, is becoming a social media content creation hub, with dedicated production studios popping up all over the city that have multiple stage sets under one roof. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This creative multipurpose production set in Dallas is a good example of content creation on an industrial scale, making it possible to create multiple stories using different sets. In this studio, there’s a recording booth, a jail cell, a telephone booth, an outside brick wall, a clothing store front, a magazine wall, and a money wall. By using all these sets, our social media superstar can create a week\u2019s worth of stories on different sets all in one day. Problem solved!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The perfect holiday card starts with Peerspace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another example of someone who knows how to find photoshoot locations on Peerspace is a savvy mom in Los Angeles who is making arrangements for a photoshoot for her family holiday card. Since she sends her cards out every year in December, she usually schedules the photoshoot in September or October. With her spouse and all the kids, they are a group of 10 people, and every year she orders matching sweaters or pajamas for everyone to wear in the photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since she discovered Peerspace, she\u2019s been able to find fabulous locations for the annual holiday photo, like this lodge-like log cabin<\/a> in Topanga, California, described on Peerspace as \u201ca rustic style log lodge situated on top of the Santa Monica Mountains between Malibu and Calabasas.\u201d It is the pictures of the home that really sold her this year. Plus, she noted the fabulous stone hearth, which would make a fabulous gathering spot for a photo as well as the dramatic cathedral ceiling of the cabin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A major bonus for the photoshoot is the beautiful pool with views overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Perhaps this year she will ask Peerspace to help her find some holiday-themed pool floats and matching holiday bathing suits for a photoshoot in the pool as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creative ways to narrow down your location search<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Knowing that Peerspace is the go-to marketplace (like an Airbnb for photoshoots<\/a>) is just the starting point. To truly nail your photoshoot setting, it helps to filter with intention instead of endlessly scrolling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
