Spring in Utah County is pure magic—soft blossoms on the trees, dreamy golden light, and that fresh air that just feels like a deep exhale. As a Utah County Family Photographer, I can confidently say: if you’re planning a session this season, wear the dress. Whether you’re booking family photos, a motherhood session, or capturing your sweet girls twirling through a field—dresses are where the magic lives.

Looking for a dress for your upcoming session? I have picked some beautiful dresses for mom and baby!

Dresses Photograph Like a Dream

As a Utah County Photographer, I’ve seen firsthand how much a dress can elevate your session. They move with the breeze, add softness to your portraits, and create that timeless, romantic feel we all adore. Even the simplest dress brings depth and texture to your images in a way jeans or pants just can’t.

That little swirl as you turn. The gentle flow as your daughter runs into your arms. It’s all about movement—and dresses love to move.

Flattering for Every Body

One of the reasons I always recommend dresses for my clients—especially women and girls—is because they’re universally flattering. Whether you prefer a long maxi dress that gives you goddess energy or a sweet midi with puff sleeves, dresses highlight your natural beauty in the most effortless way.

They elongate, they soften, and they let your confidence shine.

And for little girls? Oh my heart. Nothing compares to a dress when she starts twirling under the spring sky, hair catching the light, laughter in the air. It’s the kind of moment that makes a photograph sing.

What to Look for in Your Spring Dress

For your spring photo session, I always suggest leaning into neutrals, pastels, or soft floral patterns. Think dusty rose, sage green, creamy ivory, soft blue. These tones photograph beautifully against Utah’s spring landscapes—whether we’re shooting in a blooming orchard or on a sun-kissed hillside.

Textures like cotton, linen, and flowy chiffon catch the light perfectly. And if you’re not sure what to wear, don’t worry—I love helping my clients style their sessions. In fact, I have a client wardrobe full of handpicked dresses available just for you!

Let’s Capture the Beauty of This Season

Spring is one of the most popular times to book a session with me here in Utah County. As Utah’s Best Family Photographer, it’s such a joy to help families feel beautiful, connected, and at ease in front of my lens. And a thoughtfully chosen dress? It sets the tone for the entire shoot.

So go ahead—embrace the season, lean into your femininity, and show up ready to twirl.

Your story deserves to be told in the most beautiful way, and I can’t wait to help you do just that.
