Klondike Park

I shoot in a lot of different areas and I though I would share some of the best ones with you.  One that is probably my favorite is Klondike Park which is located at 4600 Highway 94 S. in Augusta, MO.  It offers 250 acres of scenic property featuring more than 4 miles of natural and paved trails.  It was originally the site of an old silica sand quarry which has been preserved and turned into a beautiful parkland.  There is also a unique lookout bluff that provides picturesque views of the Missouri River Valley, as well as the Katy Trail.

Versatility

One of the things I love about Klondike Park is that no mater what season it is, you can still capture beautiful images.  In addition to the white sand near the lake, there are tons of evergreens that always give you a pop of color.  In the spring the grass is green and there are beautiful flowers, summer is still beautiful but the heat and humidity are annoying (as well all know) so I tend to not shoot as much in the dead of summer unless it's a sports team.  The leaves on the trees in the fall turn bright yellow, purple and red and even winter is still very scenic and can provide some color.  You can see from the sample images I posted the different looks you can get from each season.  The lake area looks different from all angles and offers gorgeous reflections to complete your photos.   

Park Options

The grounds also include camping (for those that like to camp!) a meeting facility, picnic shelters and playgrounds for children.  I have to admit that I have not utilized it for any of these options; I just use the gorgeous scenery as a background for my clients images.  I like to offer a unique and fun experience that they will remember, along with products that will give them a lifetime of joy.  I know every time I look at the canvas I have of my family hanging on my wall it makes me smile.
