Spring Family Photo Shoot in Villars-sur-Ollon
Spring in Villars-sur-Ollon is a magical time for a family photo shoot. The last snow is melting, the alpine meadows are waking up, and the first irises push through last year’s leaves. There’s a freshness in the air that makes everyone want to be outside, enjoying the sunshine and creating memories. For me, it’s the perfect season to capture vibrant and natural family portraits.
One of the best things about spring in Villars-sur-Ollon is how long it lasts—flowers bloom first in the valley and then higher up in the mountains, often well into June. This family photo shoot took place on a golden May afternoon, with the sun warming our faces and the snowy Alps sparkling in the background.
A Picnic in the Sunshine
We met at the beautifully named Pré Fleuri in Chesières, just as school was finishing. Arthur arrived in the car, full of giggles in his smart outfit, while we waited for Samson to rush out of class. As soon as he spotted his papa, he came running—full of stories, energy, and excitement for the afternoon ahead.
The plan was simple: a family picnic with a view of the mountains. While Samson changed into more relaxed clothes, little Arthur was happily perched on his mama’s hip. We then set out to a wildflower meadow overlooking the Alps, the perfect setting for a relaxed family photo shoot in Villars-sur-Ollon.
For this family, it was more than just photos. They are preparing to leave Switzerland, and these images will serve as a keepsake of their time here—an afternoon full of laughter, alpine scenery, and simple joy.
Relaxed and Natural Family Portraits
This session was all about fun and connection. Samson climbed trees pretending to be a monkey, Arthur tried his best to eat strawberries with a smile, and the whole family shared moments that felt effortless and real. Between the playful games and the quiet hugs, we also created some timeless family portraits.
That’s the beauty of a family photo shoot in Villars-sur-Ollon: breathtaking backdrops, playful energy, and authentic moments captured forever. With the Alps as a stage and spring in full bloom, every photo feels alive with colour and warmth.
