Photography sessions in Peachtree City

Planning a portrait session in a Peachtree City park? The city requires a film permit for commercial still photography on city-owned property, while photos made solely for private use are exempt, and it is not settled which side a paid family or senior session falls on. Check with the city, or ask whether your photographer already has, or hold the session on private property.

If the city says a permit is needed, apply at least ten business days ahead and expect to show liability insurance that names the city. A studio in your own home is a home occupation, so clients park in the driveway and the business stays out of view from the street.

Peachtree City's Lake Peachtree is reserved for residents and their accompanied guests, so a session there raises an access question on top of the film-permit one.
