Default Need a great photoshoot location around Atlanta!

I am looking for some great locations in the Atlanta area to do a photoshoot. I really like what others have done around really nice buildings and waterfront type areas. Does anyone know of a high end real estate broker who would allow me to shoot in front of a high end property or something like that? I am open to all suggestions. Post pics of potential locations if you can.

I thought Hermance Stadium at Oglethorpe University would make a good backdrop but it might difficult with this view being right off of a busy road.

You're right about Oglethorpe, since you won't be able to do that shot of Oglethorpe since it's right on Peachtree. Stone Mountain Park has a lot of good backdrops, and Lake Lanier, but that's a bit north of Atlanta. There are a couple of nice buildings around my work area too, on the Emory University campus. I was thinking about doing a shoot around here myself, heheh.

Let's do it Bing.. I'm ready for another photoshoot. My car's had a few makeover since the last time we did it. I'm just trying to decide on new wheels.. Kinda getting bored with the CCW's. Might look into BBS..

Mike, since when did you get with Vossen wheels? Anything interesting for my supra? I'm looking for something lightweight and track oriented.

if you want to catch downtown in the background and want a rustic feel, go to the area where we had the F&F5 shoot.

and alexus, do you like any vipmodular wheels?

Actually Lake Lanier would be a good spot for me because my car is in Buford. Any pics of possible locations there?

I don't have any pics, but the good thing about Lake Lanier is anywhere up there is good. There's on spot on the main road which would be a great sweeping/curving road shot, but since it's on the main road that's out, and any of the picnic areas are great, since there are spots in there where you could position the car with a great shot of just the lake and opposing treeline across from you, but you would have to get there pretty early to avoid the crowds.

For a few months now

Hey we don't sell track oriented wheels, and only a few choices have 19s. Here is a photoshoot we did of a Supra. CV3 wheels, 27/28 lbs 20x9 and 20x10.5.

email me at mike@vossenwheels.com, don't want to hi-jack Mark's thread.


As for Lake Lanier, not sure but I know that the reservoir in Clayton County is great...they have two of them and tons of great spots and only $5 to donate...if we can find a spot like this there, that would be cool.

Here is a pic I took 8 years ago...

The offices around Cumberland Mall in Cobb County are pretty good spots and more or less abandoned on the weekends - especially in the morning. I will warn you that sometimes the security guards at some of the office parks are dicks. I also like Lake Allatoona near Red Top Mountain off of I-75 (fun roads to drive up there too...when they're empty).
