photo sites part 2: downtown cleveland, indoor

it’s highly likely, with northeast ohio’s weather madness… rain, cold, etc. that you’ll need to take your engagement and day of photos indoors in lieu of outdoors, however, indoor locations are a little harder to find, may require reservations far in advance, and/or can cost the price of admission per person or flat rates of $50-$250/hour…  here are my top 10 places to consider for indoor photo shoots – but be sure to call ahead and find out the reservations/current rates information! 

1. Palace Theater
2. Old Courthouse
3. Halle Building
4. Hyatt Old Arcade
5. 200 Public Square (aka The BP Building)
6. Tower City

   okay, so that’s only 6… also consider calling downtown hotels to see if you can stop by their lobbies or small event rooms. 

   here’s 4 pretty hotels to round off my “top 10″

7. wyndham 
8. marriott
9. ritz carlton
10. renaissance 
    
    if those don’t work out, or you aren’t downtown, here are four more very popular indoor photo locations in the general northeast ohio area:
11. east: Crawford Auto Museum
12. east: Severance Hall
13. west: Holiday Inn – Westlake
14. south: Brooker Insurance Agency
