Abu Dhabi Desert: Nothing says "wow" quite like the golden dunes of the Abu Dhabi desert. It’s a stunning backdrop that adds a magical touch to your family photos, making them look like something straight out of a fairy tale.

Umm Al Emarat Park: If you’re into lush greenery and open spaces, Umm Al Emarat Park is your go-to. It’s a peaceful, vibrant spot where your family can relax and just be yourselves while I capture those candid, happy moments.

Wahat Al Karama: Looking for something with a bit of history and modern flair? Wahat Al Karama is perfect. The reflective pools and cool architecture make for some truly unique and memorable family shots. Plus the backdrop of Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque is absolutely beautiful.

WHAT TO WEAR FOR YOUR FAMILY PHOTO SHOOT

Choosing the right outfits for your family photo session can make a big difference in the overall look and feel of your images. In Abu Dhabi’s natural settings, I recommend opting for soft, neutral tones like beige, white, or earthy colors that complement the desert’s golden hues or the greenery of the parks. Light fabrics work well in the warmer climate, ensuring everyone stays cool and comfortable during the shoot.

You can also coordinate your outfits, but avoid being too matchy-matchy. Instead, choose complementary colors and styles that reflect your family’s personality. And don’t forget to consider any cultural or personal elements that you might want to incorporate – they can add an extra layer of meaning and uniqueness to your photos.

By planning your timing and wardrobe carefully, we’ll ensure your family photos look and feel timeless, allowing your family’s love and connection to shine through.

Timing is everything when it comes to outdoor family photography in Abu Dhabi. The city’s climate can be quite warm, especially in the summer, so I recommend planning your photo shoot during the cooler months, typically from October to April. These months offer pleasant temperatures, making it comfortable for everyone, especially young children, to enjoy the session without feeling overheated.

In addition to cooler weather, scheduling your shoot during the golden hours – shortly after sunrise or before sunset – ensures that we capture your family in the soft, flattering light that Abu Dhabi is known for. The warm, natural glow of the sun enhances the beauty of the desert dunes, parks, or any location we choose, creating truly stunning images.
