Little Dipper Farm provides acres of beautiful space for photographers of all levels. For those using Little Dipper Farm for noncommercial use, Little Dipper Farm does not require a photography membership. Our annual photography membership allows amateur and professional photographers alike access to Little Dipper Farm for professional use.
What does an annual photography membership entail?
An annual photographer membership allows professional and amateur photographers access to Little Dipper Farm for posed or formal pictures, i.e. engagement, wedding, senior year, family photos.
Our annual photography membership allows multiple sessions for one year starting from the membership purchase date. This is ideal for professional photographers who will regularly use the Little Dipper Farm as a photo shoot location. An annual membership covers one photographer. A business with multiple photographers shooting different clients concurrently need memberships for each photographer. The membership is $350 per year. Please contact us if you have any questions regarding an annual photography membership.
