Holiday Family Portraits in Albuquerque, New Mexico

The Gawne Family braved the winter cold for a quick holiday family photo shoot at one of my favorite spots, the Elena Gallegos Open Space in the foothills of the gorgeous Sandia Mountains These sweet boys and their parents were such troopers and thankfully you can’t even tell how freezing cold it was :) How adorable are they in their coordinating plaid shirts and that bowtie on baby boy - so stinkin’ cute!!

I also loved how Mom and Dad were a bit more understated in their black outfits. I always try to make sure to get a solo shot of just Mom and Dad. Isn’t the kissing photo to die for? Definitely frame worthy!

Holiday Family Portraits in Albuquerque, New Mexico

It is always so fun to see how a family chooses to coordinate their holiday photo shoot outfits! The Flores family did a gorgeous job in pairing a casual but dressy combination of red, gold, and navy for their photography session at the Elena Gallegos Open Space in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Their outfits give a comfortable but Christmas-y vibe all around, especially with the plaid and gold sequin skirt :) Choosing coordinating outfits may seem daunting but I always recommend the following.

Fall Family Portraits in Albuquerque, New Mexico

Oh my goodness, despite how freezing cold this day was, it was a pure joy to photograph The Olson family for their family portrait session! It was a gorgeous day at the Elena Gallegos Open Space, which is definitely a favorite location to shoot at. The wide open space allows for movement and offers many different backdrops and “props” such as rocks, bridges, and of course the gorgeous Fall foliage.

I adored this sweet family’s coordinating outfits so much! I loved how the cherry red, navy blue, and yellow tones all tied in together perfectly. Not to mention their cute fur baby they brought along! We always welcome your furry friends into your session.
