Bluebell season is my favourite time of year for outdoor family photoshoots. The beautiful Hertfordshire Bluebell woods didn't disappoint this year despite almost catching me out being so early due to the very mild spring!

FAMILY BLUEBELL SHOOTS IN HERTFORD

We had lots of fun exploring the bluebell woods at Panshanger Park and making wonderful memories for lots of lovely families.

I also did a stunning sunset engagement shoot in the bluebells.

Bluebell shoots aren't just for children!

I did my first ever engagement shoot in the bluebells too this year, and it was heavenly!

We timed the shoot for golden hour - the hour just before sunset when the sun is low in the sky and it infuses everything with a beautiful golden glow.

The weather was perfect and the bluebells were breathtaking, making for the most enchanting photos to celebrate their engagement.
