Ottawa Family Photographer | Evergreen Trees. As Winter arrives and temperatures drop, many families hesitate to schedule outdoor sessions. I understand that some families may be a bit hesitant to go out in the colder temperatures. But hear me out! There is something special about a Winter session amongst the evergreens. Curious if an Evergreen Session might be right for your family? Read on for why evergreens make the perfect backdrop for family photos once the temperatures start to drop.
A Splash of Colour:
One of the biggest perks of using evergreen trees as a backdrop is the vibrant burst of colour they provide. In the Winter, the landscape consists mainly of muted tones of browns and whites, so the rich green of the trees adds warmth to your photographs. Whether there is snow on the ground yet or not, the evergreen’s rich colour becomes a beautiful backdrop for your family’s photos.
Texture and Depth:
Evergreen trees, with their lush foliage and needle-like leaves, adds an interesting texture to your photos. The texture not only adds depth to the images but also serves as a unique and natural frame for your family’s photos. Families love how the details of the evergreen branches create a really interesting backdrop to their photos. The evergreen trees really makes their photos stand out amongst typical Winter portraits.
Versatile backdrop:
Evergreen trees provide a versatile setting for family photos. The dense foliage is perfect for blocking harsh sunlight. And I can frame your family close up between branches or capture wide-angle shots with entire trees as a backdrop. Evergreens can also be used as a perfectly neutral, non themed backdrop for families looking to have updated family photos. Or, they can be dressed up and made seasonal with fun holiday sweaters or blankets. The flexibility that evergreen trees provide is one of my favourite things about these special Winter sessions!
Don’t let the Winter chill deter you from capturing beautiful family moments – the beautiful evergreens of Winter are the ideal setting for photos once the temperatures start to drop.
