4. Go wild at The Houston Zoo

The Houston Zoo is home to over 6,000 animals, and they’d all love to be Instagram-famous. Well, most of them. The elephants, chimps, and sea otters might just pose for you, though the wolves and cougars tend to be a little camera-shy. There’s so much animal beauty on display here — you’ll get great photos all day long.

5. Have a blast while taking photos at this classic car showroom and lofted bar

If your idea of the most Instagrammable places in Houston are those that give you an edge, then you’re going to love this classic car showroom in Southwest Houston. It’s an 8,000-square-foot industrial warehouse with epoxy concrete floors, super-high ceilings, amazing lighting, and, oh yeah, rotating classic collector luxury cars! The showroom’s insanely stylish lofted bar is also ideal for Instagram shoots.

6. Feature one of the city’s most popular backdrops at The Houston Water Wall

The Houston Water Wall is an installation near the Galleria, usually simply called “The Waterfall” by locals. It’s a central image of Houston that’s been featured in movies and TV shows, and it’s very cool up close. This is an opportunity for you to take a stunning photo that stands out from the pack.

7. Reach new heights at a private jet realistic luxury set

If you’re an Instagram influencer, it’s hard to imagine a better find for your next viral shoot than this luxury, realistic private jet set. The set includes five reclining chairs, an array of props, color-changing lights, and more, all to provide you with an authentic and customized experience. An extensive selection of lighting equipment and backdrops, as well as extra services, are available to you here.

8. Transport your viewers to this bright modern Mediterranean home in Memorial Park

This bright modern Mediterranean home has its own charming, curated balcony space that looks straight out of Firenze, so you can look like you are vacationing in Tuscany no matter how far you are from Italy. Inside the house, enjoy bright, modern, high-end furnishings that create a serene and contemporary setting.

“Very nice and beautiful home and area,” shares a Peerspace reviewer. “the host was very nice to me and my team and let us shot anywhere we wanted 10/10 definitely book again.”

9. Play with the horses at a rustic cowboy ranch retreat

Let’s not forget that Texas is cowboy country. For a series of rustic or Western-themed photos, throw on some boots and a hat and check out this ranch property in Central Southwest. The ranch has both cleared and developed areas, as well as woods left to grow wild, so you can get some beautiful forest shots in addition to corral photos.

10. Get creative at a downtown industrial warehouse and production space

The contrast of the bright white and exposed brick walls gives this industrial warehouse space its own character, not to mention some great visuals to shoot all by themselves. Perhaps what dominates the space is the glass wall leading to the arched atrium, which allows outside light to diffuse and fill the space beautifully. That, combined with plenty of room and some serious industrial vibes, is a recipe for Instagram magic.

Check out this informative review from a Peerspace user: “Great space, great communication, overall a great experience. Perfect for our video/photoshoot with the cool brick and amazing huge industrial window. The natural light depends on the weather, we got stuck with some clouds, but the space was great and our host Keagan was very attentive and accessible. We will definitely put it on our list to use again!”
