Best Parks for Photo Sessions around St. Augustine and Jacksonville Florida

Washington Oaks Park

6400 N Ocean Shore Blvd, Palm Coast FL 32137

Washington Oaks Park is probably the most beautiful place to take your Family. Maternity or Senior photos. It is located south of St. Augustine in Palm Coast on A1A

There is a fee to enter the park. The park closes at sunset, and the gates are shut and locked, so be sure you don't get caught inside after sunset!

A public bathroom is just inside the gate, across from the parking lot. It is easily accessible for wheelchairs or strollers. 

My clients can access any dresses in my client closet for their maternity session. You can view them HERE

Alpine Grove Park

2060 FL-13 Switzerland FL 32259

Alpine Grove is such a beautiful park overlooking the St. Johns River. It is located just south of Fruit Cove, FL. It has beautiful nature trails and a historic home. 

This location has easy parking and bathroom facilities in the park and easy access for wheelchairs and strollers.

Camp Milton Historic Preserve

1225 Halsema Rd. N. Jacksonville, FL 32220

 

Camp Milton is a beautiful option for Family, Senior, and Maternity sessions anytime of the year.

It is honestly my favorite for fall sessions. If you are looking for a session that is more woodsy, this is the place for you. 

I can't stress enough, Bring Bug Spray!

The park has a large parking area, but there are no restroom facilities. Wheelchairs and strollers can easily access the park. 

There is no entrance fee, but the park closes promptly at sunset. The gates are closed and locked. 

 


Walter Jones Park

11964 Mandarin Rd Jacksonville FL 32223

This location is one of my clients' favorites. This is an excellent location for Family, Maternity, and Senior sessions. I have even done Milestone sessions at this location!

Many backdrop options provide a variety of options for your photo session. 

The parking lot gives easy access for wheelchairs and strollers. There are bathrooms available at this park. There are no parking fees, and the park closes after sunset. 

This is a favorite location for those looking to take sunset pictures as it overlooks the St. Johns River. I have even seen manatees close to the pier at this location!


These are just a few of the Jacksonville and St. Augustine parks. You really can't go wrong at any of these parks!
