There’s something powerful about photographing people you’ve known your entire life. When this family of four drove all the way from Elljay to Dallas, GA for their summer session, it wasn’t just about pictures—it was about coming home to something familiar, even if only for a moment.
We met on a quiet piece of private land, surrounded by open fields and golden light. No distractions. No pressure. Just space to connect, breathe, and be.
The Beauty of Unposed Moments
Their two children—just three years and one and a half—moved like summer wind. We let them play, explore, and cuddle into their parents’ arms when they needed to pause. Rather than chasing poses, we captured presence. That’s what matters.
A family session like this doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be honest.
Wardrobe That Feels Like Summer
Styling matters, but it doesn’t need to be complicated. This family nailed the effortless summer look:
- Mom wore a soft, flowing sundress in a pale pastel. Feminine and timeless.
- Baby girl was in a sleeveless romper—simple, playful, and perfect for warm Georgia weather.
- Dad and little brother wore light, button-up shirts in soft, neutral tones that blended beautifully with the landscape.
When planning your own session, I always recommend light fabrics, muted tones, and textures that catch the light. Worth Collective and Jamie Kay are some of my go-to favorites for effortless, photo-ready pieces.
Location? I’ve Got You Covered
This session took place on private property, but don’t worry—you don’t have to bring your own land. One of my superpowers is location scouting. I’ve built a library of beautiful places to shoot across Georgia—from tucked-away fields to curated venues and exclusive spots you won’t find online.
Whether you’re local or visiting like this family, I’ll guide you to the perfect setting.
