Photo session with small children near mountain river

Introducing a little play into a photoshoot is the best way to make sure everyone has a great time- especially during a family session!
Kids relax, parents laugh, and the memories we capture feel natural and full of joy.

On this recent session, we enjoyed beautiful weather, shared plenty of smiles, and even splashed in the cool mountain river.
While rivers and meadows are always fun, one of my favorite scenic spots for families is the Gatlinburg Overlook.

As a Gatlinburg family photographer, I love bringing families here because the panoramic mountain views are absolutely breathtaking.
The Smoky Mountains stretch out in layers behind you, making every shot feel epic yet still intimate.

I’m especially great with small children - whether it’s helping shy little ones feel comfortable in front of the camera, turning a photoshoot into a game, or catching those quick, unplanned moments of laughter.
Patience, flexibility, and a sense of fun make a big difference in creating relaxed and happy Gatlinburg Overlook family pictures.

The best time for Gatlinburg Overlook photos is early morning or just before sunset, when the light is soft and flattering.
On cloudy days, the mountains take on a moody, dramatic beauty that makes your images even more stunning.

If you’re planning a trip to the Smokies and looking for picture-perfect mountain backdrops, the Overlook is a perfect choice.
​From cozy family hugs to kids running and playing against that iconic view, your gallery will be filled with images that bring you right back to the moment.

Anna is an amazing photographer in her own right, but is even better with kids! She brings high energy to keep the kids attention and capture what all us parents want; those dang ol’ smiles! If your visiting the Smoky’s, do your family a favor and book time with Anna to capture the best moments of your trip.
