Yes, absolutely! While I specialize in in-home lifestyle sessions, outdoor sessions are definitely an option if that’s more your style. Think parks, beaches, fields, or even your favorite local spot, any place that feels meaningful or comfortable for your family.
​
Here’s a quick look at the pros and cons of outdoor sessions:
Pros:
-
Beautiful natural backdrops – From golden sunsets to leafy trees and wide open skies, nature gives us some seriously stunning scenery.
-
More room to move – Outdoor spaces are great for kids (and pets!) to run, explore, and just be themselves.
-
Seasonal vibes – Want that dreamy fall foliage or soft summer glow? Outdoor sessions let us tap into the mood of the season.
-
Light, light, light! – We’ll chase the best natural light, especially during golden hour (just before sunset).
Cons:
-
Weather-dependent – Rain, wind, or sudden temperature drops can affect our plans (but don’t worry, I’m flexible with rescheduling!).
-
Less privacy – Parks and public spaces can mean curious bystanders or needing to wait for the right moment.
-
Light can be tricky – Midday sun or deep shade can be unpredictable, but I’ll guide us to the best light possible.
-
Some locations require permits or fees – Certain parks or venues may charge for photography sessions or require advance permission. I can help check and plan for that if needed.
If you're dreaming of an outdoor session, I’m all in! And if you’re unsure whether home or outdoors is best, I’m happy to help you figure out what suits your family and your story.
