It is time to start thinking about your family session.

Autumn is perhaps my most popular time of year for family photos, with rich golden tones from the leaves on the trees and the sun low in the sky in the late afternoon. The light is soft and warm and is so flattering for skin tones. The added benefit is that even little children are still awake for the sunset, unlike in the summer months! Winter, with its frosty mornings and pale sunlight, is also lovely if you can brave the cold! I recommend wearing knitwear, layers, furry gilets and thermals underneath. Cute bear hats are optional!

The leaves are turning varying vibrant shades of sunset; your steps are accompanied by a crunch of leaves, and cheeks are beginning to turn rosy at the chilly breeze’s touch: it’s autumn. One of my favourite times of the year, especially for photographs. Autumn is the ideal time to have a family, individual or group photoshoot, or if you would rather be behind the camera to get out and shoot some portraits.
