One really unique and beautiful spot in Springfield is the Mizumoto Japanese Stroll Garden. It’s a curated garden and for that reason there is an entrance fee just to go in, and even extra if you are a photographer. But it’s absolutely lovely and peaceful, and it was a great area to scout for portraits.
I love spaces like this, gardens or parks that have lots of little pockets of goodness so you can get many different looks in a session without having to drive or travel all over the place. This one was especially nice because literally everywhere you turn there was a new area that all flowed together, yet was unique to itself. And also being Spring, the colors were just gorgeous, which of course I always look for as well.
