Edmonton Fall Family Photography
Golden leaves. Cozy layers. Genuine smiles.
Every autumn in Edmonton brings a fleeting, magical window where the trees turn gold and the air feels just crisp enough for warm sweaters and snuggles. This year's fall family session was the perfect blend of that cozy atmosphere — set against colourful foliage, laughter-filled moments, and the joy of welcoming a brand-new little one.
A Session Full of Heart
We met at one of Edmonton's most picturesque autumn spots, where crunchy leaves formed a natural carpet and the late-afternoon sun wrapped everything in soft, golden light. The family of five settled onto a blanket for some classic portraits, but it didn't take long before the kids were tossing leaves, peeking around trees, and chasing dandelion seeds.
The star of the show was, of course, the newest arrival — a sleepy newborn, swaddled and tucked into a basket surrounded by fiery maple leaves. Big sister's beaming smile and little brother's curious glances made for the kind of sibling moments every parent treasures.
Balancing Posed & Candid
As with all our fall family photography in Edmonton, we aim for a mix:
-
Classic portraits that look beautiful on your walls.
-
Candid in-between moments that capture personalities in motion.
One of my favorites from this session was a "leaf and nose boop" moment between Dad and the older two kids, while Mom cradled the newborn with a look of peaceful joy. It's these unscripted seconds that bring your gallery to life.
We had such a wonderful time capturing these memories with you again this year. Your warmth and creativity made the session feel easy and fun, and the photos you've given us will be treasured for years to come. I'm so happy for you to share them—these moments deserve to be seen.
Why Book an Autumn Family Session in Edmonton?
Fall is short-lived here — often just three to four weeks before the wind takes the colour from the trees. That's why it's worth planning ahead. From early September's first hints of gold to October's rich, warm tones, every week offers a different backdrop.
Whether you're updating family portraits, marking a milestone, or simply wanting to freeze this chapter in your family's story, autumn gives you that cinematic light and a naturally warm palette.
Your Turn to Make Memories
If this season's colours are calling your name, now is the time to book. Our Edmonton fall family photography sessions are tailored to capture your unique connections — whether that's a playful leaf fight, a quiet newborn cuddle, or an epic group shot for the holiday card.
