About Glendale

Glendale, California is just 10 miles north of downtown Los Angeles, but the picturesque city at the base of the Verdugo Mountains feels thousands of miles away. It’s a smaller city with a population of only around 196,000 people and a booming residential area. But, it’s also home to a thriving cultural and economic scene, as well as some Hollywood stars.

The city boasts a 15-acre shopping center, Americana at Brand, that really put Glendale on the map. The Disney Creative Campus is also located here, as well as a mixture of restaurants, museums, and outdoor activities.

Glendale is also a great place to spend time outdoors with temperatures in the 70s and 80s all year long. There are approximately 50 public parks in the city to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. With all of these amenities, it just makes sense to have your photo shoot venue in Glendale.

Pros and Cons of Photo Shoot Venues in Glendale

Glendale has the advantage of being close to the action, but far enough removed to make business easier. Of course, there are other pros and cons of photo shoot venues in Glendale that may sway your decision in one direction or the other.

Advantages

• Take it easy
  Having your photo shoot venue in Glendale is easy because everything is right there. If the city doesn’t have it, Los Angeles or one of the other neighboring cities does. You can get everything you need without any added stress, whether it’s a catering company or furniture and equipment rental.
  
  
• Travel
  We know some people make location decisions based on travel alone, and we completely understand why. Delays and lost luggage can dampen the spirit of any project. Traveling to Glendale is easy because of its proximity to Los Angeles and the major roads in and out of the city.
  
  
• It never rains
  There is rainfall, but it is minimal. Glendale boasts that same sunny weather that’s made California popular for generations. A lot can go right or wrong at a photo shoot, but when you choose Glendale, you can be pretty confident that the weather will go right.

Disadvantages

• Must be the money
  Get your wallet out in Glendale. It’s still close enough to Los Angeles to have the same high costs that its neighbor to the south does. Expect to pay Los Angeles area prices when you’re in the city, whether that’s for catering, transportation, or hotels.
  
  
• Car-dependent
  Those living and working in Glendale know that you must have a car or private transportation service to efficiently travel within the city or to and from the location. There are some public transportation options, but most people rely on personal or private transportation for all their needs.
  
  
• Fire and earthquake risk
  The Station Fire in 2009 was close to Glendale and threatened the Deukmejian Wilderness Park and its famous oak tree. The fire risk within the city itself is fairly low, the biggest threat that it poses is through power outages as so much of the grid is interconnected. Earthquakes are another challenge as the city is along several fault lines and has seen earthquake damage in the past.

Famous Locations in Glendale

• Verdugo Mountains
  Technically, the Verdugo Mountains are just outside of Glendale, but you can’t be in the city staring at them and not go visit. The trails that weave through the mountains are mostly old fire roads or horseback riding, hiking, and biking trails. The reward is stunning views of southern California in all her beauty.
  
  
• Forest Lawn Cemetery
  Although it may seem odd for a cemetery to be on a list of famous places, the Forest Lawn Cemetery is a tourist destination because of the people buried here. Michael Jackson, Humphrey Bogart, and Sammy Davis Jr. all have fans stop to visit their final resting place. There’s also an art museum and extensive grounds to visit.
  
  
• Deukmejian Wilderness Park
  The Deukmejian Wilderness Park occupies 709-acres in the northern part of Glendale, bordering the San Gabriel Mountains. People enjoy the trails and views of the Crescenta Valley. The Angeles National Forest borders three sides of the park, creating a vast and pristine wilderness space. If you visit, be sure to find the 200-year-old McFall Oak. It is a two-mile hike from the main entrance on the Dunsmore Canyon Trail.
