Spring is one of the most magical times of the year to capture family memories. The flowers are blooming, the evenings are lighter, and there's an unmistakable energy in the air—perfect for relaxed, playful outdoor photoshoots.
If you’ve been thinking about updating your family portraits, there’s no better time than now!
The Magic of Springtime Sessions
1. Nature’s Perfect Backdrop
From wildflower meadows to leafy parks and blossom-filled gardens, spring gives us stunning natural settings without needing to over-plan. The soft greenery, colourful florals, and golden evening light add a dreamy, timeless feel to every image.
2. Longer, Warmer Evenings
With the clocks going forward and longer days ahead, we have more flexibility for sessions after school or work. Golden hour—the hour just before sunset—is especially beautiful in spring and makes for the most flattering, warm light for your family photos.
3. Natural, Joyful Energy
There’s a fresh energy to spring that’s infectious! Kids love the freedom of running around outdoors, playing, exploring, and just being themselves — and that natural spirit shines through in every photograph.
