Seasons are changing, and things are starting to warm up here in Colorado, and I couldn’t be more thrilled! As spring approaches, it brings all kinds of beautiful colors and incredible opportunities for family photos. Spring family photos are some of my favorites as we can get back outside without freezing and celebrate the beauty surrounding us in Colorado. As a Colorado family photographer, I love seeing some of my favorite families year after year, and I can’t wait to capture more incredible family bonds. Let’s talk about why you must take some family photos this season!

Weather is Warming Up During Spring Family Photos

Spring is the best time of year for family photos. The weather is warming up, but not as hot as in the summer. We can be outdoors longer while taking in all the beautiful sunlight and nature Colorado is known for. Getting the kids out the door and excited for photos will be so much easier because it’ll finally be warm enough for them to play! In between shots, they’ll be able to run and have fun.

Incredible Colors

As I mentioned, when spring rolls around, so do all those breathtaking colors in nature. Throughout the winter, it can be hard to find spots that aren’t covered in snow or brown from the cool weather. But when it starts to warm up, everything is green, flowering, and an absolute knockout. Family photos this time of year are also an excellent opportunity to show off the color by dressing in more fun colors. Often, families think they must wear neutrals, but dressing to enhance your location’s brilliant colors is a great choice!

Spring Family Photos Have Later Sunsets

As you can probably tell, I love a good sunset. There’s something so magical about a warm sunset that allows colors to pop and truly adds warmth to the location. With daylight savings approaching, the dinnertime fights with kids during photos are gone. Instead, enjoy dinner out and meet me for photos afterward! We’ll have more time and less cranky kids!

Less Crowded Than Other Times of Year

Fall is a popular time for family photos; everyone forgets about spring! Most families have gotten their photos done in the last six months and won’t need them done until fall again. Lucky for you, our locations will be emptier and less crowded. This allows us to pick locations without worrying about other people getting in our shots. Spring family photos are indeed where it’s at!
