Capture the Joy of Summer with Family Photos
As an Idaho family photographer, I often hear from parents who want to capture the fleeting moments of their children's lives. While newborn photos are always cherished, the joy and wonder of childhood continue well beyond the first few months.
Summer is the perfect time to create lasting memories with your family, and there's no better way to do that than with a summer family photo session.
The Magic of Summer
Summer brings a sense of joy and carefreeness that is unique to this time of year. The longer days and warm weather provide the perfect backdrop for family photos. Whether it's a day splashing in the water, a picnic in the park, or an afternoon playing in the backyard, these moments are filled with laughter and joy that deserve to be captured. These are often the memories we think back so fondly of when are children are older.
Why Family Photos Matter
Family photos are more than just pictures; they are a way to freeze time and hold onto the memories of your children as they grow. When you look back at these photos, you'll remember the giggles, the games, and the simple pleasures of summer. These images become a part of your family's history, something you can look back on and treasure for years to come.
Capturing Authentic Moments
The best family photos are those that capture authentic moments. I encourage families to be themselves and let their personalities shine through. This might mean letting the kids run around, play, and be silly. These candid moments often make for the most heartfelt and genuine photos.
Choosing the Right Location
Idaho offers a variety of beautiful locations for summer photos. From the stunning landscapes of your family farm to the serene waters our local lakes, there's no shortage of picturesque settings. Think about places that are meaningful to your family or where you spend your summer days together.
Planning Your Session
When planning your summer photo session, consider the time of day and the lighting. The golden hour, which is the hour before sunset, provides the most flattering light and creates a warm, glowing atmosphere for your photos. Dressing in light, breathable fabrics and coordinating outfits can also add to the summery feel of your photos.
Making It Fun
A successful photo session is one where everyone is having fun. Bring along some props like bubbles, a favorite blanket, or even your family pet to add an extra element of joy to your photos. The more relaxed and happy your family is, the more beautiful and genuine your photos will be.
