Orlando Family Photographer
If you’re looking for the perfect spot for an Orlando family session, let me introduce you to one of my absolute favorite locations: Kraft Azalea Gardens in Winter Park, Florida. This hidden gem offers towering cypress trees, dreamy golden light, and the kind of magical backdrop that makes every Orlando family portrait feel straight out of a storybook.
Recently, I had the joy of photographing the Mitchell Family, and let me tell you – this session was filled with laughter, a little bit of toddler bribery (because snacks = happy kids), and some sweet candid moments that made my photographer heart so happy.
Top Orlando Family Photo Location
If you haven’t been to Kraft Azalea Gardens, you’re missing out! This park is always on my list of top Orlando family photo locations because:
- Gorgeous natural light (hello, golden hour!)
- Scenic lake views that make every shot look like a painting
- Wide open space for little ones to run around (because let’s be real, they will run)
- No permit fees (yep, a win for everyone!)
Whether you want a more elegant, timeless feel or just want to let the kids run barefoot and have fun, this spot delivers every time.
Getting Comfortable in Front of the Camera
I know, I know – having a camera pointed at you can feel a little awkward at first. But here’s my promise: I will not let you feel weird!
Seriously, a family session with me is not about stiff poses and forced smiles. Instead, we:
Walk around and chat (so you feel like we’re just hanging out)
Chit chat with the kids to get those real smiles
Capture candid moments – because those are the ones you’ll love most!
And if you’re thinking, But I don’t know how to pose! – don’t worry, that’s my job! I’ll guide you every step of the way so you look natural, relaxed, and amazing.
Let’s Talk Outfits & Locations!
One of the best parts of booking your session? You’re not in this alone! I help my families choose the perfect outfits that complement the season and location. No need to stress over matching exactly – coordinating colors look way better than full-on matching outfits.
Not sure where you want to shoot? I’ve got you! We’ll chat about location options, whether you want something lush and green like Kraft Azalea or a totally different vibe like downtown Winter Park or a cozy in-home session.
