I'm doing a fashion shoot in downtown San Diego with a photographer over the weekend. I need a scenic park, area, theatre, mural, landmark, or whatever that would be good for this that wouldn't get wouldn't get crowded with on lookers (I didn't suggest Balboa Park for that reason).
thanks!|||The Cabrillo National Monument rocks for photo shoots, you get views of the bay and the ocean, plenty of park settings, the lighthouse makes for a great back drop. Not alot of people there so you will not be bothered.|||How about Seaport Village? Depending which way the photographers shoots you, he may capture the downtown skyline, or maybe the Coronado Bay Bridge (a definite SD landmark), or the ocean. If I recall, there are areas within or along the outer edges of Seaport Village that may fit the scenic park scene you're looking for.
Since most photo shoots are taken in the early morning for the best light, you may not have the huge crowds you are anticipating.
Yes, some people may want to see what's going on, but, unless you're a celebrity, some may stop to look, but they usually move on.
Seaport Village and Balboa Park are always places photographers use to do shoots. The crowds there are use to seeing photographers/photo shoots taken there, and most see it as no big deal.
Have you consider the grounds of the Hotel del Coronado? I've seen many photo shoots taken there also. And for the beach shots, it's right at their doorstep...
Good luck!|||I'd recommend Torrey Pines Park, but the difficulty I've encountered is most public areas now require a license for professional location shooting which can get expensive. I suggest you check the department of parks and recreation before you start shooting as the will issue citations.|||Mission Hills park up above the freeway is perfect..Ive known photograhers that use that area for this type of work...its beautiful up there and few people.|||use a cemetary!|||Try the North end of Harbor Island across from the Hilton.
It is on the water and will not have much traffic.
Also Spanish landing park along Harbor drive and across from the airport. Both of these locations have grass, Big trees and are on the bay.|||I'd look into Presidio park. Crowds are way down there lately, but its just as nice as ever. They have the pergola area, the Serra museum, great grassy hills, cobblestone constructions, good trees, etc.
