Virtually any place can be a photo shoot location as long as you have an excellent quality camera (I use OPPO F1s). I used to be really shy about taking pictures. Not just of myself but of surroundings and objects if I felt that I would be catching someone’s attention. I’ve been missing out on a lot. I only realized thankfully not too, late that I’m free to take pictures of almost anything most especially myself and people won’t be upset if I do. Here are a few photo shoot locations that I discovered where you can take pictures for any occasion.
University of Santo Tomas
I discovered the beauty and infinite possibilities for photo shoots at the University of Santo Tomas when Bastian took his entrance exam for Senior High. I waited for about 4 hours and really got to take in the beautiful campus and luscious greenery. I must have walked around the entire place 3 times at least. I’m more than thrilled that Bastian will get to spend his senior high years at place as refreshing as this.
Walkways are always a nice backdrop for taking photos. The path that gets narrower and trees that get closer to one another tell a story. I took a panoramic shot of the entrance to UST and here you can get some casual shots like standing underneath the arch.
Star City
Star City has many possibilities for backdrops for photo shoots. We found this lighted tree and as you can see it makes for an attractive background. The roller coaster rides taken at different angles can be a maze for the eyes.
Usually with phone cameras you’ll get a dark and blurry shot but with my OPPO F1s I didn’t have to do anything! If you do want toa djust your settings you still have that option by going into Expert Mode. Here you can adjust your ISO, White Balance and all that good stuff.
Fairview Terraces
The garden alone gives you unlimited picture opportunities. From the art installation to the Central Tree you have photo shoot spots right there. Go further though and visit there Food Choices on the 2nd level where there are spaces and corners that will give you Instagram worthy shots
La Mesa Ecopark
We were at the park recently and witnessed an actual photo shoot of a debutante. Already this tells you that La Mesa Ecopark is a popular photo shoot location. Going around the park you’ll see bridges, steps and fields where you can take all kinds of pictures. Pre-nups and fashion pictorials are often done here as well.
f you do want to adjust your settings you can do so by by using a free photo editor. Do you have any photo shoot locations you’d like to share? I’d love to hear about it and hopefully get to visit to take more pictures with my family.

Wow! All these using the Oppo f1s? That phone is really something.
Photoshoots are best if you have beautiful subjects as well just like your kids. 🙂
It certainly helps to know where one can hold photo shoot sessions. Although one can take it anywhere with the prevalence of smartphones, holding it at a proper location does wonder for the photo. It also doesn’t bother people who are walking or who want to view a backdrop. One photo shoot location I would like to share is BGC.
Yes, BGC has lots of potential photoshoot areas. Hoping to visit soon and take a day capturing more memories.
Nice photos and gorgeous backgrounds. I like different kinds of roads as backgrounds too. Also, seaside walks are great for photos. I also love photos with some famous buildings, bridges, etc. in background. 🙂
UST is my alma mater and yes it is very Instagrammable! 🙂 I’ve been there for 5 years and never in those years that I never felt safe within its walls. I’ve never been to La Mesa Ecopark though but it looks nice and green. And your photos are good. Oppo has really a good camera. I actually thought your photos are shot by an Iphone.
