Those of you who have lived in Charlotte for a while have probably heard of and hopefully visited Freedom Park. But for anyone new to Charlotte and wondering why it is the location for Charlotte Image's Holiday Portrait Special, Freedom Park is one of Charlotte's oldest parks as well as one if its most widely recognized scenic, natural settings.
The park was developed in 1948 as a memorial to World War II through the help of the Charlotte Lions Club. It has hosted the "Festival in the Park" every September since 1964 and for many years it was the location for the city's main 4th of July fireworks display.
It is a large park with a man-made pond, walking trails and lots of open space surrounded by the beautiful old trees of Dilworth and Myers Park. Its acres and acres of beauty straddle both of these historic neighborhoods.
This weekend's weather will be beckoning you outdoors as the weatherman is predicting sunshine and temperatures in the sixties and seventies. Why not take the family for a perfect autumnal outing in Freedom Park for a walk, to romp on the playground, to feed the ducks and of course, to scout out this portrait location for yourself. You'll immediately see why Stephen's professional eye has been repeatedly drawn to this venue throughout his career as a Charlotte family photographer.
Once you visit, you'll surely want to snag one of the six remaining family portrait sessions eligible for the Holiday Special. Call Charlotte Image at 704-334-5506 and hopefully we'll see you at the park!
