One of the most important parts of planning your photo session isn’t just outfits or location… it’s when during the year you book!
The colors, the mood, and especially the sunset time shift dramatically from season to season — and that changes the entire feel of your photos. 🌿🌞🍁
Swipe through to see how the light + landscape can transform from:
🌸 Spring – usually starts indoors!! Our weather is unpredictable… Soft greens, blooming trees, gentle golden light.
☀️ Early Summer – Bright greens, long sunsets, warm + airy tones.
🌾 Late Summer – Deep greens and golden light at the beach; the sun sits lower and glowier.
🍂 Early Fall – Crisp light, rich tones, warm color palettes.
🍁 Late Fall – Neutral backdrops, cozy textures, and earlier golden hours.
If you have a vision in mind — bright and airy, warm and glowy, bold fall color, or soft neutrals — the time of year matters more than anything else.
⏰ And here’s the part most people don’t realize:
Sunset time changes every month.
That means your session START time might be 7:30pm in June… 8:30pm in July but 4:30pm in October!
So if you have little ones with early bedtimes, or need to plan around work schedules, this becomes super important!
🤎 My best advice:
Book during the season that gives you the look and timing that fits your family best.
Not sure which one matches your style?
