With June comes vibrant colors and bursting blooms at every turn. With June comes summertime and brighter days. We thoroughly enjoyed shooting a Botanic family photo with the Spraco family at the Denver Botanic Gardens on a cheerful summer day! As you’d expect, this location is quite ideal for any photo shoot – especially one with an adorable family of three!
A Year-Round Attraction!
Located in the heart of Denver, the Denver Botanic Gardens is popular for its beautiful botanic displays, concerts, and event venue space. It is constantly changing its exhibitions and artwork, and it often has new events on the calendar open to the public! The Botanic Gardens even has winter light displays when vegetation is hibernating and Denverites are bundling up!
Spraco Spunk
There was no bundling up needed when we joined the Spraco family to take their pictures, though! These three had us gleefully dizzy with vibrant oranges, reds, and blues. Mom looked elegant in her flowing dress and heels. Dad and son looked dashingly handsome in their classy button shirts. A perfect meld between his parents, this boy’s plaid shirt helped make some adorable pictures with Mom and Dad! This little boy was sweet and composed, but we got a few giggles out of him!
In addition to this family’s impressive color coordination, the Botanic Garden’s green foliage was a nice, contrasting backdrop for these photos! The location even proved a geometric dream, for we had fun utilizing archways, benches, and greenhouse roofs for some experimentation.
Because of all of these perks, we have visited the Denver Botanic Gardens many times over the years to photograph couples, families, and events. Check out our blog here for our many other shoots and see why we love this location so much! Thank you, Spraco family, for inviting us to be a part of your lovely family photo session!
