Richmond fall family photography offers some of the most stunning natural backdrops of the year. The vibrant leaves and golden light create a magical setting that enhances every family portrait.
The Keeleys aren’t just clients – they’re friends who’ve become like family. Marissa works as our admin assistant, and our parenting journeys have intertwined beautifully. In fact, our boys were born just three weeks apart! Therefore, these sessions feel more like documenting our shared life chapters than work.
We chose Byrd Park for this autumn session, and nature didn’t disappoint. The orange and red leaves created a stunning seasonal backdrop. Additionally, the late afternoon sun filtered through the trees, casting that dreamy golden glow photographers dream about.
The Keeleys nailed their wardrobe choices for this Richmond fall family photography session. Their outfits complemented the autumn colors perfectly without looking overly matched. Furthermore, their clothing choices were comfortable enough to allow for natural movement and play – essential for authentic family images.
What makes these images special isn’t just the beautiful setting – it’s the genuine connections between family members. The children’s natural smiles when looking at their parents, the spontaneous snuggles, and playful moments tell the real story of who they are as a family.
The kids were at that perfect age for playful interaction – old enough to follow simple directions but young enough to remain completely authentic in front of the camera. Their sibling relationship was particularly sweet to document – those natural moments of connection that parents treasure.
I love how Richmond fall family photography combines the best of natural settings with the warmth of family connections. The seasonal elements create a beautiful time capsule – not just of how the family looked, but of this particular autumn in their lives together.
