Discover pretty places to take family outdoor photos in Philadelphia

A group photoshoot is something every family has to do every now and then. After all, how else will you document the growth of your kids and celebrate special occasions with birthday and Christmas photoshoots? It can be tricky to get everyone on the same schedule and looking their best for the day, but we promise you it's so worth the fuss! Philadelphia has some of the most beautiful urban and rural parks in the country. State and city parks are a short drive away, no matter where you live. And you can always choose an urban park with historic significance. As a former capital of the United States, Philadelphia has some of the finest cultural landmarks on the East Coast. It's the perfect place to have a family outdoor photoshoot!

Family photos in Philadelphia parks

Philadelphia is one of America's largest East Coast cities yet there are some stunning parks a short drive away. Wissahickon Valley Park is a favorite of local family photographers thanks to the tree-lined creek, hiking trails, and gorge. Forbidden Drive in the Wissahickon is a secluded place where you can craft the perfect mood for an outdoor family photoshoot. Merion Botanical Park is another beautiful location for family photos. Located west of Philly, it's the perfect balance of outdoor splendor with a cultivated character that forest parks don't have. The 13-acre park was restored from being a dump site over 70 years ago and is a must-see for all local families.

Where to have a Philadelphia family photoshoot in winter

Wintertime is a fun time for family photoshoots in Philadelphia. The city sees snow each year, creating the perfect backdrop for Christmas or winter-themed images for albums and greeting cards. Outdoor parks and backyards are a great place to work with a professional family photographer! But what if it's a bit too chilly for an outdoor shoot? Wind can mess up your hair and cold weather clothes might not be the vibe you want in your images. You can take your family indoors to escape winter's chill. Book time at a professional family photographer's studio instead. You can dress comfortably and use props like presents, a Christmas tree, mugs of cocoa, and other winter essentials for your family holiday shoot. The lighting will be ideal for photography, rather than the gray overcast light of most outdoor winter days. A professional studio will also have backdrops to create precisely the right mood for your images!
