Franklin Tennessee Family Photographer | What time of year is best for family photos?
Okay... Everyone knows the answer to this... its FALL. Technically. But is it?
The best time for family photos is ANY TIME OF YEAR!
Weather has NOTHING to do with your family memories.
What is meaningful about fall? NOTHING. Fall photos were created for Christmas Card photos. They are a social contagion that was exacerbated by Social Media. As everyone began posting their fall family photos, everyone else wanted fall family photos and well, now we don't even know the REAL reason behind our photos anymore.
So let's talk about meaningful memories and why they are SO important.
Maybe you are like me... you have an almost 11 year old and you know what is around the corner. The END of his childhood self and the beginning of his transition to man. That can't wait until Fall, because he could grow TWO inches by then.
Maybe you have a 4 year old and you know that any day, her little voice won't sound so little anymore. That can't wait until Fall.
Maybe you just got pregnant with your second but want to remember what it was like to have one child. That can't wait until Fall.
The Truth is... There is no better time to get family photos (or video too!) than RIGHT NOW. Perfect timing doesn't exist. But imperfect moments that we will miss... DO exist.
