Professional (Senior) pictures at CP?

My daughter wants to have some of her senior pics taken at the park and on the beach.

Do you see any problems the park may have with this?

Has anyone ever had or saw professional pictures done in the park?

And I know its a stretch but any photographer recommendations?

Thanks for any help you can give me!

Your best bet would be to contact the park and ask them. They'll be able to give you the official answer.

Obviously ask the park but the only issue I could see other than the photographer having to pay to get in would be that they would likely have to agree not to use your daughter's pictures for promotional purposes without the park's permission. I doubt that would even be a huge sticking point. Make sure you know what the yearbook requirements are also so you don't get shut out on that end either. Really with the photography work I see people doing just vacationing in the park unless they're dragging a wagon full of equipment through the park I don't know that anyone would even notice them. Check first though, those would be cool pictures.

Thank you Noggin and Paisley! I did email the park too because I wanted to be safe :)

Can you please just make that your signature already? That way you won't have to keep repeating it :-)

They do allow it and in most cases they let you do it before the park opens in the morning. I have seen senior pictures done on rides, midways, the beach, etc. Just recently a friend of mine who met her husband at Cedar Point did their engagement photos on the Frontier Trail while the park was closed.

Reminds me of the tech support people that just copy and paste responses, and nothing ever seems like a personal response.

Like the others said, contact the park, and as far as photographer goes, Michael Neilson would be a good one. He's based in Cambridge, Ohio though, but I'm sure he would be willing if you ask him.

I think the biggest problem would be what is seen in photos. As long as no park or ride logos are seen (due to trademarks), it should be alright.

I am a photographer, and I have done senior sessions at Cedar Point. It's totally fine, per the park, as long as it's not used for promotional material.
