Kayla hesitantly accepts the job offer but has problems connecting with her students.
When a fellow teacher, Jordan Griffin, tries helping a reluctant Kayla, his suggestions inspire her to revamp her teaching style. Upon discovering that a budget cut might lead to the removal of the school’s art department, the two set up a fundraiser with the help of one of Kayla’s friends. Meanwhile, they start getting closer due to their shared interests, but a possible opportunity may once again force Kayla to leave behind everything she has. The Hallmark romance’s picturesque backdrops immerse viewers in the storytelling experience. Thus, if you are wondering where ‘To Her, With Love’ was shot, here’s all you need to know!

Charlotte Metropolitan Area, North Carolina
‘To Her, With Love’ was primarily taped in the Charlotte Metropolitan Area, AKA Metrolina, which falls in the states of North Carolina and South Carolina. However, the cast and crew utilized the North Carolina city of Charlotte and Salisbury to lens pivotal portions of the movie. Since the story is set in Tar Heel State, choosing the Metrolina as the shooting location was an obvious decision.
Although, the real-life town of Stoneville is in Rockingham County and not a part of the Charlotte Metropolitan Area. The filming likely took place in the latter region due to the available facilities that allow an efficient moviemaking process. Over the years, the Charlotte Metropolitan Area has been used in the production of ‘The Hunger Games‘ and ‘The 24th.’
