October is always my busiest month, and it’s easy to see why. Fall family sessions in CT are full of variety, color, and so much life. Early in the month, it’s often still mild enough to head to the beach, where the light feels soft and golden, and families can run and play by the water. As the month goes on, the air turns crisp, the light deepens, and the parks I love most are bursting with color.

The Beauty of October on the Connecticut Shoreline
That’s one of my favorite things about photographing families in the fall—no two sessions ever look the same. One week I might be capturing a family splashing in gentle waves, and the next, walking through fields of fiery leaves. Connecticut in October has a little bit of everything, and I love how the shifting light and color bring every session to life in a new way.

My Favorite Parks for Fall Family Sessions
I have a few favorite spots that shine in autumn, each one special for its own reason. Some have wide open spaces that glow at sunset, while others peak with rich color toward the end of the month. Whether we’re at the beach or surrounded by trees, every location has that unmistakable fall magic.
As I look back on these collages, I’m reminded why I love this season so much. Fall family sessions in CT with Linda Sobolewski Photography are warm, joyful, and full of connection—and I can’t wait to do it all again next year.
