The Mid America Photography Symposium wah held in Eureaka Springs AR. on May 16 and 17 this year.  One of the sessions was a photo shoot at Hidden Valley Ranch just outside of Eureka Springs.  Hidden Valley Guest Ranch features horseback rinding in a wilderness setting, 650 acres of pristine Ozarks mountains and valleys provide the perfect atmosphere to recall the days when a horse provided the muscle for getting around.  The owner was kind enough to let us have the run of the ranch, provided a horse, old pickup truck, and other props for the shoot all at no charge.  On Friday the day before the symposium he was kind enough to provide the host’s of the shoot with a tour of the ranch.  This is a great place for a getaway weekend for you and that special someone, in one of the luxury log cabins.

Great Places for Great Photos

 

Let me help you to find a great location for your next photography adventure.  I will list many lesser-known destinations, as well as the famous "Icon Locations" for photography.  I will provide photos (Lots of Photos), location information, consisting of what there is to photograph as well as other information about the destination.  I will give costs, maps, directions, contact information, and other essential information for a successful photo trip.  I will only post for locations that I have personally photographed to ensure a quality guide to great locations for photography. If you know of great places that are not posted, please send me the details, I may just decide that is a place I need to go!
