Gilbert Arizona Family Photographer
As a Gilbert Arizona Family Photographer I’ve made the Salt River my BEST FRIEND for Summer and early Fall family pictures.
Here in Arizona, summer can be hard. Lets face it, no one wants to get all dressed up for family pictures and then melt in the heat. I totally get that! But sometimes you can’t avoid pictures during the summer or even early fall when its still pretty warm. My solution? GET IN THE WATER!
We are so blessed to have Tonto National Forest and the Salt River almost literally in our back yard with the most amazing backdrops for family pictures that (I think) Arizona has to offer.
We got so lucky with this session because we caught the river just before they shut off the dam for the winter in mid-October. I came back less than a week later and the river had dropped 20-30 feet at least and has since been shut down because of poor river conditions (including leeches! eek!). Moral of the story, if you’re hoping for beautiful river views like this one, plan for late summer/early fall, definitely no later than the 2nd week of October, at least without checking first.
I’d love to work with you! Please contact me to book your Utah or Arizona family pictures! To view more of my work and stay up to date, follow me on Instagram.
