locations at the pearl

Let me know if anything speaks to you!

Map of the Pearl

I have added many different times of year to these photos so the areas may not look exact to these photos for your session date.

The Pearl is a really busy area so we have to work around tourists, Pearl guests and other photographers with clients. It can make it difficult and we may need to improvise at certain areas to make shots work. I usually photoshop out a lot of people and cars but I cannot guarantee that I can edit out all unwanted background. Please keep this in mind.

areas that would work for group photos

The greenery by the food court usually has less traffic. Next to the River Walk there is a layered rock/dirt area for seating that could work as an option. It is not the most beautiful background (which is why I have not taken pictures here) but it could give us the room that we need and layering options. The Colosseum is also a good option. It does get foot traffic but we could find a spot and probably have not many people bother us. It was under construction the last time I was there for pictures so I would need to check and see that the area has been reopened.

All of the other spaces I have taken family/individual pictures at and should work for sibling shots, grandchildren, individual families etc.

I do have permission with the Pearl to take pictures here with rules. We are not allowed to take pictures inside or outside the Hotel Emma. We are also not allowed to get in the way of any foot traffic. We are not to bother any guests or take pictures around the restaurants.
