Location, Location, Location

It's true in real estate, and it can absolutely be true in photography. This specific location was excellent for multiple reasons. 

First, obviously, the scale of the background gives these photos a sense of freedom and vastness. Fall can feel like someone finally opened a window after the oppressive heat of summer. The expansive vista in these pictures helps translate that feeling onto the screen.

Second, the rocks and trees provide both visual interest and an outdoor playground to explore.

Finally, this location is very simple. This allows for the family to be the primary focus while still providing a natural, beautiful backdrop. 

Family Connections

The magical feeling of fall, with the cooling air, the deep blue of the sky, and the gold of the sunlight, fills us with energy. Sometimes, this can help us open up and be a little more relaxed.

This family's relationships shone through as they danced and played on the mountain. Their enjoyment of one another leaps off the page and draws in the viewer, making us want to join them outside.
