Utah Extended Family Photography | Saltair

There’s something really special about photographing extended families. During the Anderson Family reunion in Utah, they decided to capture their time together with extended family pictures at Saltair.

Perfect Spring Pictures at Saltair

Saltair is known for its unique, dreamy backdrop—the white salt flats, big open skies, and views of the Great Salt Lake. But in the Spring? It’s next level. The recent rains left behind gorgeous reflections and textures on the salt flats that added so much visual interest to the photos. Even better—there were no bugs! (If you’ve ever been to Saltair in the summer, you know that’s a big win.)

Spring is one of the best times to plan your family photography session at Saltair. This location never disappoints, and Spring made it even more magical.

Lifestyle Extended Family Pictures

The Andersons were an absolute joy! It was clear from the start that this family loves being together. They laughed, chased the kids around, and were completely down for anything. Those are the best kinds of sessions—the ones that feel like play and connection, not stiff posing.

As a Utah extended family photographer, sessions like these are such a gift to capture. Everyone comes in knowing how rare it is to get the whole family in one place, and you can feel how much it means to them.

Why Extended Family Photos Matter

There’s something timeless about extended family photography. The pictures freeze a moment that won’t come again in quite the same way—grandparents holding grandbabies, siblings watching their kids play together, and the little cousins running free on the flats.

If you’re planning a family reunion or vacation in Utah, consider scheduling a session with a Salt Lake photographer who specializes in extended family photography (me!). The memories you make together are worth documenting. If you’re interested in working together, please reach out to me here or follow along with my work on Instagram
