Fall Family Photos at Hyde Memorial State Park | Santa Fe, New Mexico Family Photographer // Jessica, Francisco, + family

There is nothing like New Mexico in the fall! It is the perfect time to update your fall family photos and there is no better background than the beautiful fall scenery at Hyde Memorial State Park in Santa Fe, New Mexico. There is a reason why fall is the busiest season for New Mexico photographers and I would say it is 100% due to the scenery being THIS beautiful! 

Autumn is a wonderful time to update your annual family photos! The colors are amazing and getting photos done right before the holiday season is always a huge win when planning holiday gifts. 

Jessica, Francisco, and their beautiful blended family met me at Hyde Park for a gorgeous daytime family shoot. Most photographers only prefer to shoot during golden hour light, but I love shooting midday! Hyde Park has so many trees that provide spectacular shading and makes taking photos in the bright sun easy peasy. 

We had a blast together! I love that all of their personalities shined bright through each photo! Their big smiles and laughs made this session so fun!

I wanted to share a friendly tip when planning your next family photo shoot. 

If you are planning your next photo shoot and have younger children, make sure to pack snacks, water, and comfy shoes for them to walk in! I try to take all of the family group photos and individual photos of the children first because little ones tend to get restless and want to play in this cool new environment! If possible, I suggest bringing a family member or friend to come help give the kiddos a break so that the parents can have time to take some romantic couples images together!
