On a college campus, when they add a new building, they wait to put in the walkways, just plant grass.  Then the worn pathways tell them exactly where the walkways are needed.
It is well worth hiring a REGISTERED landscape architect for a master plan.  Meaning a responsible plan that you can implement in stages over the years, yourself.  They are bound by law to tell you exactly how things need to be built.  They are aware of the plants and trees that do well in your area.  They should never dictate but work with you to produce a plan that YOU like.  YOU pay them to give you your desired result, so they have no incentive to sell you stuff you do not need.
Avoid the "guy with a truck and a shovel, "Landscaper".  They give free estimates, but you pay for it.  Then leave you with outrageous mistakes that cause problems, like a flooding basement.  You then have no recourse.

Edit and the AI bit where image is cutting driveway w/o safety gear that real humans need. AI has a social responsibility because people, sadly, will follow a bad lead. Add the gear.
