Mar 11

Are you considering a spring photo shoot? Whether you want the whole family together or a unique date idea, spring family photos are a great way to create lasting memories with those you love. From lush gardens to serene parks, the possibilities for picturesque locations are endless … and I’ve got a mini-session in Los Angeles that provides a perfect setting for lively, natural, and candid shots. More on that in a bit. First, let's dive into how you can make the most of this season with a spring photo shoot that perfectly encapsulates the essence of these warmer months.

Spring Photo Shoot FAQs

As you prepare for your photo shoot, you might have some questions about what to expect. Here are common questions about spring photos to help you plan!

What Are Spring Pictures For?

While you may love the idea of a photo shoot amidst the blooming flowers and lush greenery of spring, you might be wondering what you can use the photos for once you have them. Because of the time of year, they make great keepsakes for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and Easter. They are also a great way to share life updates like pregnancy announcements, graduation milestones, or engagement news.

What Time of Year Is Best for Spring Photos?

The best time of year for a spring photo shoot is late March. This month is like nature's grand unveiling, where everything starts to bloom, and the world is awash with colors and new life. Late March also has mild weather, perfect for outdoor photography.

Capturing these moments in March means you'll get those pictures back just in time for gifting occasions. Whether it's a framed picture for Mother's Day, a personalized photo gift for Father's Day, or even a thoughtful present for Easter, March is the best month to capture the liveliness of the season with spring family photos.

What Colors Should You Wear for Spring Photos?

Choosing the right spring colors for a photo shoot can enhance the fresh feel of your photos. Here are some of my favorite color choices:

Soft Pastels: Think light pinks, baby blues, and mint greens for a gentle, soothing vibe that mirrors the season's soft beginnings.
Bright Yellows: A cheerful, sunny yellow can bring a burst of joy and energy to your photos, echoing the sunshine of the season.
Lavender: This subtle shade of purple is not only trendy but also complements the natural blooms of spring.
Crisp Whites: White outfits can give your photos a clean, fresh look that feels perfectly in tune with spring's renewal theme.
Earthy Greens: To match the budding foliage, opt for shades of green that reflect the growth and vibrancy of the season.

What Do You Wear for Spring Family Photos?

Selecting the perfect spring family photo outfits is an exciting opportunity to showcase your family's style while embracing the season's vibe. Here are some of my favorite outfit ideas:

Coordinated Pastels: Dress your family in a palette of coordinated pastels like soft pinks, baby blues, and light yellows to capture the spirit of spring.
Floral Prints: Incorporate floral prints in dresses or shirts for a touch of nature, which perfectly complements outdoor settings.
Layered Looks: For those cooler spring days, layering outfits with cardigans or light jackets can add texture and depth to your photos.
Denim and White: Pairing denim with white tops creates a classic, clean look that is both casual and chic, suitable for any spring backdrop.

Whether it's a spring family photo shoot amidst the blooming cherry blossoms or a romantic spring couple photo shoot under the soft glow of the sun, my Spring Mini Photo Session is designed to capture these fleeting moments to cherish forever. Here are all the details:

Duration

Each session is thoughtfully condensed into a convenient 15-minute slot. This brief duration is perfect for capturing the essence of spring without the need for extensive planning or time commitment. It's an ideal option for busy families or couples looking for mini photo shoot ideas that still produce stunning results. And don’t worry about searching for spring photo prop ideas to bring with you — I’ve got that covered.

Fully Edited Photos

Your images are not just snapshots; they are professionally edited treasures. Following your spring photo shoot, each image will be carefully retouched to enhance the natural beauty of the season and your unique moments within it. These fully edited photos will then be delivered via a personalized online gallery, making it easy for you to share your spring memories with friends and family or download them for personal use.

Online Store Access

To further preserve these special moments, you have two options. First, you can choose a premade print package when booking. Or, you can gain access to our online store to purchase prints, albums, and other keepsakes to preserve your spring memories. These tangible items serve as beautiful reminders of your family during this season of life and your spring photo shoot, turning fleeting moments into lasting memories.

Waitlist Option

Due to the popularity of these sessions, especially during the vibrant spring season, spots can fill up quickly. To accommodate this, we offer a waitlist option. Should you find the sessions booked, simply join our waitlist, and we'll notify you if a spot becomes available. This ensures that even more individuals have the opportunity to experience a spring photo shoot.

Bonus Slot

OH — and the last slot of the day (2:30 pm) is a premium spot at no extra charge. Simply book that spot, and you’ll get to take home the chocolate robin’s eggs made by Raaka. Not only will these eggs make the cutest prop for the photo shoot, but you’ll get to enjoy them twice when you take them home. They are a delightful treat that combines the joy of Easter with the ethics of sustainable, high-quality chocolate production. Crafted from single-origin vegan white chocolate, these eggs are not only a testament to Raaka's commitment to ethical sourcing but also to their innovative approach to chocolate making. They are a cute, delicious, ethical treat. (I got mine at a local shop in LA — thanks, BESTIES Vegan Paradise!)
