Living in Arizona, most people think that all we have is desert. Many times, I get asked for locations that are lush, green, and have lots of vegetation. One great area for lush green color is right here in Gilbert, AZ. Check out this gallery below of family photos at Nichols Park.

Green, non-desert was what April requested when she contacted me  to schedule her family portraits. One concern was that we’re in the middle of the summer here in Arizona, so many of the locations that are green, or have beautiful flowers, have died off due to the heat. (Need ideas for locations for your family photos? Check this link). I instantly thought of Nichols Park in Gilbert, AZ that would still offer a beautiful green setting for her family portraits. I took a quite drive over prior to her session, just to check it out and make sure we wouldn’t be disappointed. 

If you’ve never been to Nichols Park, definitely check it out. It’s a great open field for sports, family photos, picnics, and more.
