Family Session Share: Sunset Session at Mount Tolmie
A Fall Family Photo Session at Sunset: Family Portrait Photographer, Victoria BC
Fall in Victoria, BC, is always a magical time for family photography sessions. The crisp air, the warm colors of the season, and the soft glow of the setting sun combine to create a perfect atmosphere for capturing heartfelt family moments. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing a beautiful family during one of those stunning autumn sunsets, and the results were truly breathtaking.
It was such a delight to meet up with this family at Mount Tolmie for outdoor family photos!
Preparing for Your Own Fall Family Session
If you're considering booking a fall family session, here are a few tips to help you make the most of it:
Plan Your Outfits with the Season in Mind: Fall is a great time to play with layers, textures, and warm tones. Think cozy sweaters, scarves, and boots. Earthy colors like mustard, burgundy, and deep greens look stunning against the autumn backdrop.
Embrace the Weather: Fall weather in Victoria can be unpredictable, but don’t let that stop you! A bit of wind can add movement to your photos, and overcast skies can make the colors of the leaves stand out even more.
Timing is Key: Sunset is a magical time, but it’s important to keep in mind that it happens earlier in the day during fall. Make sure to schedule your session in the late afternoon so you can capture those beautiful golden hour shots before it gets too dark.
Bring Your Favourite Fall Accessories: Hats, blankets, and layering warm tops can not only keep you cozy but also add a fun, personal touch to your photos. These little details help tell the story of your family’s fall adventure.
