Why September is Perfect for Family Photography

September is my favorite time of the year for family photography! The wildflowers in the forest preserves cannot be beat, they are so beautiful. September weather is usually nice, and you get the unique advantage of dressing for a summer vibe, or wearing sweaters and jackets for ‘fall’ photos. Here is just one example of a family that took advatage of the lovely landscape for their photos!  Don’t wait for the cold, wind, and rain of October.  Get out and enjoy the last month of summer, and the perfect backdrop for images.

Gorgeous session right here!

It was so much fun to take this beautiful young lady’s senior portraits, and we had the perfect evening of hazy sun and soft skies.  I had to fit as many into this reel as possible, and please check out more great shots on my Facebook page! 📷

Baby among the plants 🌱

This handsome little one has a nature themed nursery, and I was excited to incorporate the family’s amazing selection of plants into their session!  I hope they love this preview of their sweet gallery.
