What are some free/public indoor spaces where family portraits could be taken?

Various people in my family could die at any given moment, so my mom wants to have professional pictures taken of all of us together on Thanksgiving.

However, the number of people that will need to be in the picture is WAY too big to fit into any one room in our house, and some of the old people can’t stand to be kept outside in the cold for too long. Is there anywhere we could go, that would be free and indoors, to have the pictures taken?

We live in NJ, if that detail helps

Hmm, try looking for a place that has a nice staircase. Like the foyer of a theater or the inside of a really nice hotel. You can just ask in advance if you’d be allowed to take a picture there. Some big college buildings have nice staircases, and if the building is open over thanksgiving, it will be empty since all the students will be gone.

But if the weather happens to be fairly warm and you do want to try an outdoor photo, I think an shot in a park with all the leaves on the ground would be nice.

  3. I’m from NJ too and I have used hotel lobbies and corporate headquarters for groups such as you are describing. Possibly a church rec room would also suffice. You could also check your local fire or ambulance hall, senior center or town hall.

  4. I like the stair idea

    but that is if everyone can sit down on stairs…

    or if you could find a nice big area (ballroom) at like a church or fancy hotel…you can rent out one for a cheap price…like it could also be a cheap hotel that just has a big area that you can hang up something in the background to give a nice solid background…like pin up a white sheet or something..

    hope this helps!
