Cold weather family photo session Tips

Family Photo Sessions

I photograph families outdoors all year round.  If you are up for braving the cold, I will be out there with you!  Did you know that winter light is the most golden light of the year? Snow also makes a beautiful light and neutral background. Below are some cold weather family photo session tips to make your session a success!

Dress in layers

Put extra layers under those cute outfits you picked out.  You can be sure I will be attending your cold weather family photo session with my long undies on under my clothes 🙂

Bundle up

In addition to keeping you warm, hats, scarves and mittens can add great texture to photos and make for adorable winter family photo sessions.

Bring blankets

You will want to have blankets to sit on and wrap up/cuddle in.  Blankets can also add great texture to photos and make for cuddly photos.

Jacket selection

Pick jackets that you are okay being photographed in.  I want your little ones (and you) to be as warm and comfortable as possible.  A jacket that goes with the color scheme that you have chosen for your family can be the perfect addition to outfits.

Bring a warm drink

Pack some warm drinks in a thermos to help warm your family from the inside.  We can take breaks to warm up in the car and drive some hot coco.
