Summer is a beautiful season in Kern County. We asked our readers to share some of their favorite locations to take portraits in Kern County.
- “We have made exploring Kern County a must-do family activity this year and one of our favorite places is Lake Ming because we get the best photos of my nephew Jeremiah, usually with quacky photo-bombers and amazing views.” - Lisa Keosouphanh
- Fox Theatre - Michael Cushine
- Every summer, our family takes a photo at the top of a hill at the Park at River Walk. It’s a silhouette that poignantly shows just how quickly our kids have grown. - Nina Ha
- “We loved Hart Park to take photos for graduation of my son, Zane” - Vaun Thygerson
