A young family gets their family photos taken at Lake Hefner in OKC.

Family Session at Lake Hefner

I loved getting to take pictures of this sweet family at Lake Hefner to celebrate their little one turning one and it’s

always extra special when the grandparents join in!

How do you do a family photo session with a little one about to turn one? You get outside and have a beautiful relaxed session during golden hour! I know many people are worried about how their little ones will do during a session but I’m here to tell you it will be just fine! 🙂 With my relaxed, natural approach it removes pressure from your session. You don’t have to pressure a smile out fast, instead we get to move gently and slowly along. You and your littles get time to warm up and we get to photograph your little one in their truest form.

This session was made extra special by the family having some of their extended family join in for the session.

Enjoy this beautiful late summer extended family session at Lake Hefner in Oklahoma City.
