Family of Four Photography in Utah


I love shooting at the Great Saltair in Salt Lake City. We walked all the way to the Great Salt Lake and it is just stunning!! It takes about 10-15 minutes to walk to the great salt lake from the great saltair parking lot. With young kids it can be difficult to walk that long, and strollers don't always push so great. However we did bring a stroller to this session and did not have a problem getting it around. I usually split the session into two sections so we split the walking up which is easier on little legs.

Great Saltair Family Photography


This family photography session at the great saltair was so beautiful and just breath taking. The sunsets are always worth waiting for. During this SLC family photoshoot we had cloudy skies and it gave us an absolutely jaw dropping sunlight and colors.

Tips for family photography with young kinds at the great saltair in Salt Lake City, UT


1. Bring bug spray
2. Bring shoes that can get muddy or cleaned easily, it can get pretty muddy by the lake!
3. Plan to walk in the water in the warmer months! It is SO gorgeous especially at sunset!
4. Bring towels to clean off your feet after being in the water, and you can use them to sit on to put back on shoes.
5. Bring a crate, laundry basket or bag to carry all the towels, extra shoes (like flip flops), and bug spray in!

This SLC family photoshoot was so fun because they were willing to run around and play, which always makes the best family pictures! These parents were not scared to let their boys dig in the salty sand, put them up on their shoulders even with messy hands and feet, and run around to play with them. These sessions are just so much fun and relaxed, with no expectations, and honestly pictures always turn out better.
