Good Places to take pictures around Seattle/Tacoma

I want to take some pictures and need some exotic places around here.
Any suggestions?


I was thinking capital building in Olympia. Few spots I know around Seattle/Tacoma. UW maybe. What else?

I am very fond of cascadia high school parking lot with a nice greenery background. Bellevue square has a nice lot. I am sure I can find some places in Medina area if you want. Kirkland is another place coming to mind.

Olympia area has lots of beautiful places. Also, might have some nice places at Evergreen College, its very woodsy

When I cross the Narrows bridge on the way to golf, I'm amazed at the views. Is there any good photo locations to get the water/bridge in?

I might suggest a real old/industrial part of Tacoma. You know, clean car vs industrial background type of deal.

Since your south, try to get Mt. Rainer in there.

Other than that, there are tons of good areas on Seattle's waterfront, Gasworks, Seward beach (south Seattle), I-90 bridge area etc. etc. etc...

Is there a way to capture the Aroma of Tacoma? hehe. Perhaps a photo shoot near the paper mill. haha.

BTW. I've been inside that paper mill a few times.
