Salt River Family Photo Session, Scottsdale, AZ

Like a moth is drawn to a flame, I’m drawn to water. Perhaps it’s the Pisces in me. 🤷🏼‍♀️

When I discovered the magic of photographing families in the river, my heart and soul started to sing. It spoke to me in the same way photographing families in their home does. Don’t get me wrong, there are so many incredible places to have family photo sessions in Phoenix, but when it comes to outdoor locations in the Phoenix and Scottsdale area, my absolute favorite is the Salt River. From the wild horse sightings to the cool water on a ridiculously hot summer day, these family photo sessions are always fun and playful.

Let’s be real, Phoenix summers are brutal. I generally conduct most of my family photo sessions in-home during those months, but I’ve found a beautiful, amazing reason to shoot outside- Salt River!!!

Salt River photo sessions are an opportunity for your family to do something different and relaxed.

We start the session on the edge of the water and then work our way into the river.

The kids can play in the water, you can splash water at your partner, and it feels awesome to be in the water on a 110 degree Phoenix summer day.

When our session was done, mama texted me that her children would not stop talking about their time in the river and how much fun they had.

Why wait until the fall for your family photos when you can splash and play this summer instead?
