[cod-photolist] locations to shoot

[Caroline Trespalacios]

Hello everyone,

I am wondering if anyone has a favorite place for photo shoots?  I've done Cantigny and the Morton Arboretum. I live near downtown Naperville so I shoot on the riverwalk as well.  Lately I've been shooting families and children at the Greene Barn in Plainfield (135th & rt59).  It's my favorite by far. the backdrop of the barn is very pretty.  But I'm having problems with another photographer who shoots there as well. She gets there early and her shoots last all day. 9-5!  And she brings a load of props and hangs banners on the barn.  I can't ask her to remove her items.  Well maybe I could?  I just saw on her website she's offering mini shoots every weekend in May from 9-5.  Uh!

Anyway, I'm looking for other locations to shoot to avoid confrontation.  I prefer "barns" and old buildings.  Any help would be appreciated. :0)

Thank you so much!

Cheers,
Caroline

yes, this spot is very pretty towards sunset but is very used by the public.
