I've shared before why I believe summer is the best time for family photos, even more than fall with its stunning foliage. You can check out my reasons HERE. But how can you make your summer golden hour photoshoot amazing when the weather is hot and draining?
Dress for success!!
As the headline says...DRESSES are a perfect choice for a hot summer evening shoot when temperatures stay high. A flattering loose dress will keep you comfortable and give you something fun to play with during your session! Pair it with a cute pair of sandals for the perfect look.
If you like, check out my client closet - maybe you'll find the perfect dress for you to wear!
For the boys and men, shorts and a nice shirt (please leave the tank tops and caps at home) will look absolutely fabulous.
hydration is key
If it’s really hot out, I’ll make sure to take breaks during our photoshoot so you and your family can drink some water and cool down for a few minutes in your car. If you're up for it we may drive to 2-3 different locations during my photoshoots to give you a variety of backgrounds for your gallery. This travel time is perfect for blasting the air conditioner and arriving refreshed at the next photo spot.
Make sure to bring plenty of water for the photo session. I usually send a reminder to my clients the morning of the shoot to ensure everyone arrives prepared and happy.
Plan something fun afterward
Yes, you heard right! Treat the photoshoot as a fun family outing! We’ll have a blast capturing your adorable family moments, but it's always nice to have something planned for aferwards.
How about a dip in the hot springs pools or maybe some ice cream and a round of mini golf?
