Fortunately for wedding photographers like me, there is no need to scout for photo shoot locations by foot. Thanks to the proliferation of the Internet, you can now do the scouting of beautiful locations right in the comfort of your own home.
And for this task, there is no better tool to use than Google Earth. The way that Google Earth works in showing online users a close up look at locations the world over is a combination of topographical maps and real-time satellite imagery. The good thing about using online tools like Google Earth is that you can visualize in advance what the photo shoot will look like, simply by browsing through their site.
Whether you are looking for creative ideas for the location of an engagement photo shoot or if you are scouting for locations for an unusual wedding photo shoot location as requested by your client, Google Earth will definitely come in handy.
