The location I choose, I had never shot there before! How tricky. I had driven by this part of a local park before and I loved the way the hills rolled up in the background, but could never figure out how to incorporate that into a photo. Earlier in the year I had come across this bench. It is pretty large, but light weight. I never had a reason to use it, but then a light bulb went off! Perfect! I can place the family on the bench and shoot from an angle to capture the hills behind them.
Just off camera is a little set up of a summer picnic. I set this up for the children, to capture them just being silly, but alas, plans are made to be broken, right? :) Ms. L gave me a great big smile on the blanket, but other then that, they wanted nothing to do with sitting down! oh and the ants didn't help either.....
We walked over to a part of the park I have shot before. I think these little hidden steps are wonderful. They add such texture and depth to the picture.
The park also has this amazing blue ummmm restroom. haha Yes, this blue wall is that of the facilities on the park, but I love how it really made their yellow outfits pop!
One last walk back to the car and I really wanted to get a photo of the two children together. This is way harder then it sounds. I had to snap quickly but I was able to get ONE shot of them together.
Custom 20*10 Collages were requested from this session. I work with the family to create a layout per their design. Totally love doing this!
