Spring in Michigan is a season of renewal, vibrant colors, and comfortable weather—making it the perfect time to schedule your family and senior portraits. Here are five reasons why you should book your spring photo session with Behind the Shutter LLC today!
1. Perfect Weather for Comfortable Sessions
Michigan springs offer mild temperatures, making it an ideal season for outdoor portraits. Unlike the summer heat or winter chill, spring allows you to feel comfortable and relaxed during your session, which results in more natural and genuine expressions in your photos.

2. Beautiful Blossoming Scenery
Springtime in Michigan brings stunning blooms, fresh green grass, and trees bursting with color. Whether it’s flowering trees, tulip gardens, or lush parks, the season provides a naturally breathtaking backdrop for both family and senior portraits. The soft pastel tones of spring enhance the light, creating dreamy and timeless images.
3. Soft, Natural Lighting
Spring's gentle sunlight is perfect for portrait photography. The softer, even lighting reduces harsh shadows, giving your photos a flattering and radiant glow. Overcast spring days also create a natural light diffuser, making skin tones look beautiful and balanced in every shot.

4. More Availability Before the Summer Rush
Spring sessions allow you to beat the summer rush when photographers’ schedules fill up quickly. Senior sessions scheduled in spring ensure your portraits are ready well before graduation, and family portraits taken in spring give you a head start before summer vacations and busy schedules.
5. Fresh Start for a New Chapter
Spring symbolizes new beginnings, making it the perfect time to capture your family as they grow or celebrate a senior’s journey before graduation. It’s an opportunity to document a milestone and freeze these special moments in time before life’s next big adventure.
