Senior pictures in the Fox Cities offer endless possibilities — parks, rivers, trails, historic buildings, and nature preserves. But every public location comes with the same challenges: crowds, permits, waiting for people to move, unpredictable light, and distractions.
At KenMar Photography, you get all the beauty of the Fox Cities — without the crowds. Our exclusive, professionally landscaped private photo park gives you the look of every popular location, but with complete privacy, perfect light, and a photographer who designed the environment specifically for portraits.
Below is your complete guide to Fox Cities senior photo locations — and how each one compares to what you get right here at KenMar.
1000 Islands Environmental Center — Kaukauna
Public Location: Beautiful nature trails, river views, tall grasses, and wooded paths.
The KenMar Advantage: You get the same natural textures — tall grasses, wooded paths, river‑like water features — just steps from your dressing room. No hiking. No crowds. No waiting for people to clear the background.
Proof: The “Wishing!” portrait (a Wisconsin Professional Photographers Association competition entry) was created right here at KenMar’s private photo park.
Butterfly Gardens of Wisconsin — Appleton
Public Location: Colorful flowers, butterflies, and vibrant summer textures.
The KenMar Advantage: KenMar has its own professionally landscaped butterfly garden, designed specifically for portraits. You get the same color and life — without the humidity, the crowds, or the timing restrictions.
Proof: Katie Introcaso’s floral portrait was photographed in KenMar’s private flower fields.
High Cliff State Park — Sherwood
Public Location: Iconic cliffs, stone textures, forest trails, and lake views. But you need a permit — and you’ll wait for hikers to move out of your shot.
The KenMar Advantage: KenMar’s private photo park includes sculpted stone textures, forested backgrounds, and rustic architectural elements — all designed for photography and available exclusively to you.
Proof: The family portrait with fall foliage was created on KenMar’s private, sculpted-for-photography landscape.
Smith Park — Menasha
Public Location: Gazebo, bridges, water, willow trees — a classic Fox Cities look.
The KenMar Advantage: KenMar has all four elements — gazebo‑style structures, bridges, water features, and willow‑like textures — without the public interruptions.
Proof: Your senior portraits in tall grasses and rustic textures were photographed right here at 1120 N. Hickory Farm Lane.
Doty Park — Neenah
Public Location: Water, willow trees, and classic park textures.
The KenMar Advantage: KenMar’s private water feature gives you the same feel — but with better control of light and composition.
