fall family session

The S Family | A Formal Family Session

Dressing up for family pictures may sound like a chore, but it can actually be a fun experience! Whether you're coordinating outfits or going all out with matching themes, dressing up for family photos can bring a sense of unity and excitement to the occasion, and that is exactly what this family did!

One of the best parts about dressing up for family pictures is the opportunity to get creative and express your unique style. You can experiment with different colors, patterns, and textures to create a cohesive and eye-catching look that highlights your family's personality. Plus, it's a great excuse to go shopping and find new outfits that make you feel confident and stylish. I love how this family used mom's red dress as the anchor, and built the other outfits around it.

Certain styles can really bring a sense of occasion and make the experience feel special. When everyone puts in effort to look their best, it creates a sense of unity and togetherness that can be captured in the photos. Plus, it's a great opportunity to take some time out of your busy lives to spend quality time together and create lasting memories.

Dressing up may require some extra effort, but it can be a fun and rewarding experience that brings your family closer together. And who doesn't enjoy looking like they just stepped off the cover of a magazine?! So, embrace the opportunity to get creative and have some fun with your family's wardrobe for your next photo session!

The L Family | A Fall Family Session

I know I’ve mentioned this before, but I just love this little family! I feel so honored to be able to capture their beauty and joy every year, and this year was no exception. We had an absolutely gorgeous day. GORGEOUS. I had never been to this location before, and that can be a bit unsettling, but I totally trusted Allison, as she’s not stranger to photography (and art!!). You might remember her for being the talent behind Go Gray Artwork. She is an exceptional artist and, if you haven’t already, you should definitely check her out!!

The spot turned out to be perfect, too! See for yourself!

The K Family | A Family Session

Well, this fall really proved to be a challenging one. While I had to reschedule many sessions, this one won for most times rescheduled. I felt SO bad for this family. The weather and sickness got in the way time and time again. We FINALLY ended up getting together, and it was an absolutely beautiful day, too!

Sometimes it’s fall and you land upon the most magical light during a session. That happened with the C family! This light was so dreamy and this family was perfection! In addition to just being the CUTEST, mom and dad must be doing something right, because their three littles were absolute dreams!! The most well-behaved children ever, and SO much fun!!!

The L Family | A Fall Family Session

I am a really lucky lady. Not only do I have a super cool job, but I get to work with amazing people. You may remember me posted about my cousin, Allison, last year. Well, I had the pleasure of working with her sweet family again this year! They chose a beautiful vineyard as their location, and it could not have been more stunning! They chose beautiful colors and little L was ALL smiles. It was such a great evening!

The S Family | A Fall Family Session

The S family invited me to their home for a family session this fall. The weather was questionable, so we moved most of the session inside. This sweet little family played games, read stories, and cuddled while I captured these moments. It was so much fun! I loved watching them interact with one another.

I ADORE these humans! Being presented with the opportunity to capture their amazing family made me SO happy. Do you ever have those people that come into your life and just make it BETTER? For me, that is this couple. They are genuinely wonderful people, and each one of them has a beautiful soul and so much to offer the world. Plus, check out how stunning they all are?! STAHHHHP!

For this year’s family session, the M family had a new member! I was SO excited when they asked me if they could bring their new puppy to include in the shoot. I mean, how flipping cute is this guy?! He looked like a toy! I couldn’t get enough of this sweet family and their new baby!

The G Family | A Family Session

I met this wonderful family one fall day for some family pictures. I first met this mama and her girls when our oldest girls were just in kindergarten. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long! Time flies. Now, her girls have grown into beautiful young women. It was such a pleasure having the opportunity to photograph them. Enjoy this little sampling of our time together!!

For the third year in a row, I met with the lovely M family for some fall pictures. They are SUCH a wonderful family! It’s been a blast working with them each year. The kids have grown up SO much, and it was like a little preview of senior pictures when getting the individual shots! Thank you, M Family, for trusting me, once again!

The C Family | A NC Family Session

This past fall, I had the opportunity to visit and do a session with some of my dearest friends. They moved to North Carolina about 5 years ago and, well, it’s been difficult being apart from them. Seeing them made my heart so happy!! We managed to get in a family session, too. Their kids have grown SO MUCH since I last saw them. Our boys were so close, so this has been tough for them, as well. It was truly wonderful to see them all again! I love this family SO much! Enjoy their images!!
