As a travel blogger, it is my job to explore the world and take beautiful photos. While I have traveled through Europe, Asia, and beyond creating content, some of the most photogenic locations can be found in my own backyard. In this post I am sharing with you my 10 favorite places to take breathtaking photos in New England.
1. The Crane Estate
Located in Ipswich, Massachusetts, the Crane Estate is a former home turned museum. The expansive gardens can trick anyone into believing they have transported themselves to one of the castles in Europe.
2. The Gingerbread Cottages on Martha’s Vineyard
These charming gingerbread cottages on Martha’s Vineyard are definitely photo worthy! You can read more about planning a trip to the Vineyard here.
3. Lars Anderson Park
Located in Brookline, Massachusetts, Lars Anderson Park is a charming hidden gem.
4. Artist Bluff
Artist Bluff is located in New Hampshire. It is a quick hike uphill to one of the most stunning viewpoints in the state.
5. Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum
A private home turned museum located in Boston.
6. Boston Public Garden
A great spot for outdoor shots in the city.
7. Colby Farms
The best place for sunflower photos in New England.
8. Flume Gorge
Flume Gorge is part of a New Hampshire state park. You will need a ticket to enter, but the hike is well worth it! I highly recommend visiting in the fall so you can experience the fall foliage.
9. Wicked Tulips
New England’s own tulip field! Located in Johnston, Rhode Island.
10. Newport Mansions
The Newport mansions are a great place for photos! I highly recommend taking a stroll along the cliff walk and signing up for a tour of some of the mansions. The Breakers and Rosecliff mansions are my favorites!
