Dimple Dell Summer Family Photos
Summer is a season of warmth, joy, and making cherished memories with our loved ones. And what better way to preserve those moments than by taking summer family photos in Utah?
This summer, my cousins and I embarked on a memorable photo shoot adventure in the picturesque Dimple Dell Regional Park, located in the heart of Utah’s stunning Wasatch Front. Bet you can’t guess that this shoot only lasted about 20 minutes? By choice? We got what we needed and were quick and efficient. Something I love to promise the dad’s of the shoot, who more often than not are heavily convinced that annual family photos is a good idea! haha
Dressed in light pinks and blues that harmonized with the natural beauty of the surroundings, we created a collection of summer family photos that they will forever cherish.
Dimple Dell: A Hidden Gem
Nestled in the heart of Sandy, Utah, Dimple Dell Regional Park is a hidden gem that offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
This vast natural area is a perfect backdrop for family photoshoots, with its rolling hills, lush green fields, and the majestic Wasatch Mountains forming a stunning panorama. For these summer family photos, we couldn’t have asked for a more picturesque setting.
Choosing the Perfect Attire
Selecting the right outfits for a family photoshoot is a crucial step in ensuring that your photos turn out beautifully. This family decided on a color palette of light pinks and blues, which perfectly complemented the natural surroundings of Dimple Dell and is always a summer or spring color palette I recommend!
These soft and airy hues not only enhanced the photos but also added a touch of elegance to the entire experience.
Sunflower Delight
One of the highlights of this photoshoot was the breathtaking sunflower fields that graced Dimple Dell. The vibrant yellow blooms added a pop of color and a sense of whimsy to their summer family photos. The girls, in particular, were enchanted by these sunny flowers, and their radiant smiles were as bright as the sunflowers themselves.
Timing is Everything
When planning a summer family photoshoot, timing is crucial. We chose to schedule this session during the golden hour, which occurs shortly before sunset. This magical time of day bathed Dimple Dell in a warm, soft light that cast a beautiful glow on the photos. The golden hour not only made everyone look their best but also lent a dreamy quality to the entire photoshoot.
The Art of Candid Moments
While posed family portraits are undoubtedly beautiful, capturing candid moments is equally important. Some of the most cherished photos came from spontaneous laughter, hugs, and shared moments. These candid shots added authenticity to the whole collection, making it feel like a true reflection of their bond as a family.
The Wasatch Front as a Majestic Backdrop
One of the most captivating aspects of the photoshoot was the majestic backdrop of the Wasatch Front. Towering mountain peaks and rugged terrain provided a dramatic contrast to the softness of their attire and the sunflower fields. These mountains are a symbol of the resilience and strength that the family shares, making them the perfect backdrop for their summer family photos.
Preserving the Memories
In the end, the family photoshoot in Dimple Dell, Utah, was not just about capturing images but about preserving memories. The stunning natural setting, the outfits, the joy of the sunflower fields, the timing of the golden hour, and these wonderful, happy people all contributed to the creation of a beautiful gallery of photos.
