It was such an absolute pleasure to hold my first mini sessions here at the Raeburn Orchards Roleystone.
Located only 30km from the Perth CBD, Raeburn Orchards is a wonderful day trip with the family. You will make your way through the picturesque Perth hills to arrive here at this idyllic location. An added bonus on arrival is there is also a gorgeous shop with all kinds of lovely treats and gift ideas and a yummy coffee shop to indulge before you head into the orchards.
When is the best time to have a family session at the Raeburn Orchards?
The orchards are genuinely beautiful all year round but my two favourite times of the year are….
1. In spring, when the fruit trees are blossoming, stunning white and pink blossoms are everywhere to be seen. This happens usually in the month of September and is absolutely gorgeous.
2. In autumn, the Persimmon leaves turn a beautiful yellow, orange, brown and gold, it’s such a beautiful warm backdrop for family photos, engagement photos or even baby and newborn photos. This usually happens around the month of May, and is just breathtakingly beautiful.
Due to mother nature and changing weather this can change, so definitely get in touch with the orchards before you go to find out if the blossoms have arrived.
The best time to go is during the week as on weekends it can get pretty busy with clients and professional photographers. But don’t worry the orchards are pretty big so you should be able to claim your spot and get some beautiful photos.
I had the pleasure meeting some lovely families this year in the blossoms, from little babies to even a surprise proposal, I had no idea it was happening and felt so privileged to be a witness to this special moment.
I only release a few limited spots in September and May, so do get in touch if you’d like to book in for one of these spectacular sessions in the blossoms in September or in the Autumn leaves in May.
