Hudson Springs Park | Hudson, Ohio - Corie Walker Photography

Hudson Springs Park is a huge, beautiful park located on the east side of Hudson. It is very popular with residents and is great for walking, running, kayaking, and more! It’s a great place to come for a picnic and let the kids play on the expansive playground area. It features a huge pond, a 2+ mile trail and lots of wooded areas.

This park has quickly become one of my favorite options, especially in the fall. The water, the leaves, the light — it is beyond gorgeous! But it does come with a few hurdles, so make sure to read on to see if it will work well for your family.

The playground is right next to the parking lot when you arrive, so if you think that might an issue with your little ones (it can be a distraction), it might be best to avoid this spot. We do stay away from this area when shooting, so that usually helps. Also, because this is such a popular park in Hudson, it can be crowded. We will almost certainly be meeting for our session in the evening, so typically the crowds have thinned out by then, but you never know what we might find. Lastly, because of it’s size, it requires a bit walking to get to each of my favorite spots at the park (I promise, it’s not a huge amount). If you’re planning on heels, I suggest bringing comfy shoes to change into as we walk from each area.

This is not a swimming/wading pond (it’s just for paddle boats), so no one will be getting wet at your session (unless it rains!).

If these beautiful, scenic views have your heart fluttering, and you can look past it’s few issues, then let me know and we can discuss what time to meet at this location. This is typically a park we meet at close to sunset (60-90 minutes before sunset). View more outdoor location options!
