An outdoorsy, active, fun family of three

This Autumn Family Photo shoot for an outdoorsy, active fun family of three was full of energy, just like them. It was a gorgeous day after a week of rain in late November and the leaves were changing golden hues, beautifully. I love how they used the tips I gave them on choosing outfits from a blog post I wrote here .

First up were some games and a challenge to collect leaves to throw and shower one another with.

While little Mr climbed a hill and explored safely, Mum and Dad had photos of their own.

Off he goes to see what he can see at the top of the hill. Then the fun adventurous part – running down the hill! But first, Mum and Dad had to join him!

Then down again, they run together, led by the youngest of the adventurers in the family.

The victorious swing through the air. “Look at me! I’m flying!” I love putting a bit of timeless black and white photographs into clients’ galleries and these worked so nicely.
The winner!

I love capturing the wonders of childhood and what makes each child special especially curiosity and wonder. Little guy was so interested in nature.

It was such a pleasure photographing this fun, active family outdoors on their Smiley Day on a beautiful Autumn Day. What a lovely energetic, adventurous little guy they have and it was lovely getting to know this family better and capturing their special bonds. This is one of my favourite local locations, on a public footpath that passes a farm, between Guildford and Woking in Surrey. It’s in its prime in Autumn when the barn is full of haybales as well as Spring when the bluebells come into bloom in the woods. I look forward to photographing more fun outdoorsy active families here again soon!
