🌼 Wildflower Family Mini Sessions in the Lehigh Valley | Bethlehem + Easton PA Summer Photos

If summer had a personality, it would 100% be a wildflower field.

Golden light. Soft breezes. Kids running like tiny chaotic fairies. Parents pretending they didn’t just bribe everyone with snacks 3 minutes earlier. 😂

These Lehigh Valley wildflower mini sessions were everything I love about summertime photography! Simple, dreamy, and full of real connection (the kind you can’t force… but you can capture when the vibe is right).

Whether you’re in Bethlehem, Easton, or anywhere in the Lehigh Valley, a wildflower session is the perfect way to freeze time for just a second. Before summer turns into school schedules, packed calendars, and “wait… when did my kids get taller than me???”

Why Wildflower Family Photos Are Always a Good Idea 🌿✨

Wildflower sessions are a little different than traditional family photos—and that’s the best part.

Instead of stiff poses and forced smiles, you get:

✅ movement
✅ giggles
✅ cuddles
✅ kids being kids
✅ photos that feel like your actual family

Wildflower fields give us the prettiest natural background without trying too hard. Like nature’s version of a Pinterest board, but real life.

And honestly? The way the colors pop in summer (greens + golden yellows + soft sunset tones) is unreal.

What a Wildflower Mini Session Feels Like (Spoiler: Not Awkward) 😅💛

If you’re nervous because you think your kids won’t cooperate… welcome, you are my people.

A summer mini session in the Lehigh Valley is intentionally quick, fun, and low pressure. We keep it moving, we keep it light, and we let your family’s real personality show up.

During these sessions you’ll usually hear me say things like:

📸 “Say Daddy stinks!!”
📸 “Whisper something silly.”
📸 “Ok…Now look at your favorite person!”
📸 “Spin her once and make it cute.”

…and then suddenly we have magic.

Summer Mini Sessions Are Perfect For… ☀️

Wildflower sessions are such a good option if you want updated photos without committing to a full-length session. They’re perfect for:

  • family photos (especially with little kids!)

  • updated portraits for grandparents

  • summer birthday milestones

  • maternity photos with a soft + natural look

  • “we haven’t taken photos in forever” sessions

  • families who want genuine + joyful images

If you’ve been thinking “I should really do photos this year…”
👀 this is your sign.

Lehigh Valley Family Photographer (Bethlehem + Easton PA)

One of my favorite things about being a family photographer in the Lehigh Valley is that we have the BEST outdoor locations for sessions! Especially in the summer.

Bethlehem and Easton both have gorgeous open spaces, fields, trails, and sunsets that make photos feel warm and timeless.

And the wildflower fields?
They do not disappoint.

The Sweet Spot: Sunset Light 🌅

These sessions were held close to golden hour (aka the prettiest natural light all day).

That warm glow + the soft movement of the field is what gives these photos that dreamy look without feeling overly posed or styled.

It’s simple. It’s natural. It’s real.

…and it photographs SO well.

What to Wear for Wildflower Sessions 👗🌾

Keeping outfits soft + neutral is always a win in wildflowers because it lets the background shine without competing.

Some favorites:

✨ creams / beige / soft blues
✨ light denim
✨ airy dresses
✨ simple patterns
✨ linen textures

Pro tip: if you’re unsure, I’ll always help you plan outfits so you don’t stress about it 💛
