Most couples know about our beautiful gazebo by the water and large white barn when they book The White Barn at Padgett Place, but our 33-acre property in Lacey’s Spring holds photography locations that don't appear on typical venue tours. These hidden photography spots exist throughout our grounds, from tucked-away lakeside areas to indoor spaces that transform into unexpected backdrops during your 12 hours of venue access. We're Jana and the team, and we designed our property to offer photographers variety beyond the obvious locations, creating opportunities for unique wedding portraits in spaces that many couples discover only when they arrive for their celebration.

Hidden Photography Gems Across Our 33 Acre Property
Our property reveals photography locations as you spend time exploring different areas. The combination of our 10-acre lake, indoor barn spaces, and outdoor settings creates opportunities that photographers often find by walking the grounds during your celebration. These locations work together to provide diverse backdrops without leaving our venue.
Unexpected Indoor Photography Spots
Beyond our main barn floor, photographers discover our indoor mezzanine provides elevated views for unique reception shots. This upper-level space offers perspectives of your celebration that ground-level photography cannot capture. The built-in bar inside the barn with an outdoor access window creates an architectural focal point that photographers use for portrait backgrounds.
Our private bridal suite with a private restroom becomes more than a preparation space when photographers utilize the natural lighting and intimate setting for detailed shots. The private groom's room with outdoor leisure space offers similar opportunities, with the outdoor access providing options for transitional shots between indoor preparation and outdoor celebration.
Secluded Lakeside Photography Areas
While our beautiful gazebo by the water serves as an obvious lakeside photography spot, our 10-acre lake offers additional shoreline locations that photographers find during extended property access. Different areas around the water provide varied perspectives and backgrounds that change throughout your 12 hours of venue access.
The size of our lake means photographers can position couples and wedding parties at different points along the water for shots that don't all look the same. These lakeside areas become particularly valuable for photographers seeking variety in water feature backgrounds.
Outdoor Ceremony and Reception Locations
Our choice of three arbors across the 33-acre property means photographers have multiple outdoor ceremony backdrops to work with. Each arbor location offers different surroundings and lighting conditions that photographers discover as they scout locations during your event timeline.
The climate-controlled covered patio provides a photography location that bridges indoor and outdoor settings. Photographers use this space for shots that combine weather protection with outdoor atmosphere, particularly valuable during unpredictable weather conditions.
Architectural Detail Photography Opportunities
The variety of indoor and outdoor spaces includes architectural elements that photographers incorporate into detail shots and portraits. Our extensive decor closet provides styling pieces that photographers arrange for custom detail photography reflecting your wedding design.
Architectural photography features include:
Large white barn exterior and interior spaces provide contrast between rustic and refined settings
The built-in bar inside the barn features an outdoor access window, which creates architectural focal points for portraits.
Indoor mezzanine level offering elevated perspectives and unique architectural angles
Climate-controlled covered patio bridging indoor and outdoor architectural elements
