Glutz Photography, Cincinnati

The background can sometimes make or break a good photograph, but traveling miles and miles just to find a suitable backdrop can be time-consuming. Thankfully, Glutz Photography makes it easy to find a perfect shooting location—its 2.5-acre studio lot includes an outdoor portrait park, which features blooming gardens, tranquil woods, and even a waterfall. Against that stunning setting, photographers capture images of children, families, and newlyweds in vivid color. High-school senior portraits are one of the shop's specialties, and the photographers also have experience directing babies, using a gentle hand to guide themed sessions, such as "Baby Steps" or "Baby's First Contract Negotiation."
