I recently had the pleasure of photographing a sweet little one in Cornwall Park during autumn. It was such a lovely experience. The park served as the perfect backdrop. Golden leaves scattered everywhere created a cozy, sensory-rich environment for a baby. While there was no running or jumping, the textures of the leaves and the cool air provided a calming, tactile experience. It was wonderful to see how the baby responded to the crunch of the leaves beneath them. It truly added something special to the photoshoot.
The cool weather also contributed to the cozy atmosphere, making it the perfect time for snuggles. Moments of warmth and closeness always shine in photos. These moments are especially powerful when capturing the bond between a baby and their family. I loved seeing how she found comfort in those quiet moments, making the photos even more intimate and beautiful.
Shooting in Cornwall Park during autumn is always a treat for any Auckland family photographer. The natural setting, with its mix of textures and soft light, creates a peaceful, timeless atmosphere. It’s ideal for families with little ones. The park allows babies to take in the surroundings, feel the textures, and enjoy the comfort of being close to family. You get to rug up just a little warmer, throw on an extra layer, snuggle up in a cosy blanket and just be really close to your loved ones.
If you’re looking for an Auckland family photographer for a beautiful photoshoot with your little one, Cornwall Park is perfect, especially in the cooler months. The golden, crunchy leaves start to appear around mid to the end of April and don’t last long, only a couple of weeks. So, booking in advance is always recommended! Keep an eye out for Autumn minis during this time too!
