Tips for Outdoor Family Photo Sessions:
– **Timing is everything:** The best natural light happens during the “golden hour”—the hour just after sunrise and just before sunset.
– **Dress for comfort and coordination:** Choose outfits that complement each other but avoid overly matching. Layering can add texture and dimension to your photos.
– **Be prepared for weather changes:** Outdoor sessions can be unpredictable, so be ready to adapt to the elements, whether it’s a little wind or unexpected heat.
– **Have fun:** Some of the best photos come from natural moments—laughing, playing, and interacting with your family in the environment.
