This artsy district just north of downtown OKC is such a unique and cool place to take senior pictures. With its Spanish revival architecture and colorful stucco buildings, The Paseo is the perfect place to get photos taken that make people ask, “Are you really in Oklahoma?” If you love bright colors and arched doorways, this is the place for you! 

Parking is free but limited. But there are plenty of nearby side streets where you can park also.

One of the newest places in OKC, the Wheeler District is situated just on the south side of the Oklahoma River at Western Ave. As its name suggests, there is a ferris wheel located in the park by the neighborhood. This park also has several cute spots to take photos. But one of the best places to take photos is on the sidewalks in the neighborhood. With the vibrant colors and unique architecture of the homes, your pictures will be fun and happy. This is also a great option for a second or third location in your photos since it’s right off I-40 and close to Downtown.

There’s free public parking at Wheeler Park and at another lot near the neighborhood and businesses.

Located NW of Midtown on 16th St, the Plaza is a trendy hot-spot for creativity and local businesses. Known for its “Plaza Walls” which is a rotating mural project on the buildings, and local shops and restaurants that are fun and funky, there are tons of artsy and quirky vibes for your senior pictures. If you are looking to really express some unique aspect of your interests or personality, you may just find it here. 

Good to know: If you want to take professional photos in front of any Plaza Walls, the photographer must legally purchase a license to do so.
