Family Portraits at Manassas Battlefield Park, VALook at this beautiful family picture. This family looks amazing in their blue and yellow. Did you notice even the fire hydrant participated? Earlier this year, Tiffany reached out regarding family pictures for her family. She wanted to ensure the photographs captured their family's personality and highlight their daughter. We started the portrait session in Downtown Manassas at the Amtrak Station. As we continued we walked along the streets of downtown.

I was thrilled when Deb reached out to photograph her family photographed this fall in Northern Virginia. We decided to meet in Manassas at the Battlefield Park. Deb has three boys and they loved being photographed at the park. There is ample room to run around and have fun, climb on the canons, and more. As we were taking portraits, the clouds in the sky was amazing (see picture below). We were able to get several amazing pictures of the boys having a great time.

Best Northern Virginia Fall Portrait Locations
Can you believe the leaves in Northern Virginia are already beginning to change colors? Where has the year gone? Oh, I remember; COVID (for almost two years now). While driving the streets of Woodbridge, I noticed several trees in my neighborhood were changing to yellow and red. Northern Virginia is such a beautiful and scenic area during fall season; it makes for a majestic location to take fall family portraits. With the monuments in Washington D.C. and the beauty of fall trees, no place is the same.
This is the time of year; many families contact their favorite photographer to schedule their family for pictures. Of course, you'll want to have the perfect location for your family pictures; you won't be disappointed with any of the locations listed. This blog discusses some of the most beautiful fall locations for family portraits in the Northern Virginia and Washington D.C. area. Do you love your spouse or your children? Is there a time where you say "I must take a picture of this moment"? I'm sure you do. We all have those times when we want to capture every possible moment. Let me ask you, when was the last time you printed a picture of your loved ones? Has it been more than 12 months ago? According to the Professional Photographers of America (PPA), 53% of Americans stated they haven't printed a picture in 12 months or more; 42% of Americans stated they no longer print photos at all. That's a significant amount of people. Now can you imagine twenty years from now and not being able to look back upon your younger years. No childhood pictures, no young adult, no pictures of your parents or grandparents. Do you rely solely on your cell phone, social media, or online store companies to store pictures? Are the walls of your home bare and in desperate need of love? For this Friday Five, I want to talk about five ways to prevent being a part of the "lost" generation.  |
