Fall Family Photos at Tilley Pond Park in Darien, CT

tilley-pond-park-family-portraits-top-ct-nyc-destination-wedding-engagement-photographer-shaina-lee-photography-photo

When Sandy of Roseville Designs asked me to photograph her beautiful girls for their annual family holiday card, there was no way I was going to say no!  Though at this point in my photography career I focus on weddings and boudoir, every once in a while I'll still photograph some family portraits, especially for industry friends!  We met up a Tilley Pond Park in Darien, Connecticut for a quick family mini session.  Despite it being early November, fall came late this year here in New England, which provided Sandy and her daughters, Finley and Layla, a beautiful backdrop for their photos.  I was excited to have Sandy jump into a few photos with her girls too!  Aren't they a beautiful trio?
