But for now, let’s get to our list! Here are 12 creative Easter family photoshoot ideas that are sure to be adorable. 

1. Stage an egg hunt 

Here’s a classic Easter family photoshoot idea. Stage an egg hunt for your kids. Just imagine how cute they’ll look with their favorite baskets, hunting down eggs one by one. You could leave eggs around your house or yard, or host your egg hunt on location to make your photos even more special. 

For instance, you can use Peerspace to book a stylish green space like this outdoor courtyard in Atlanta. It offers plenty of lush green turf for your kids to run around, and for you to pose as a family once the egg hunt is over. 

2. Paint eggs together

Painting eggs is a quintessential Easter activity that kids always love. So why not combine this classic pastime with a photoshoot? Grab paints, dyes, stickers, glitter, and other crafting supplies, and photograph your kids having fun. 

You can make it even more photo-worthy by creating your eggs as a family in a Peerspace art studio, like this high ceiling studio in East Austin. It provides plenty of worktop space as well as creative supplies, so you and your family will be all set for gear in its cute, creative confines.

3. Take pics with the Easter Bunny 

Is it really Easter if you don’t take pics with the Easter Bunny? You can upgrade your pics from the standard mall photoshoot by staging them in a springy studio, like this bright and airy space in Huntington Beach, CA. There’s tons of natural light, chic wainscotting, and plenty of backdrops for a variety of family photos. All that’s missing is a costumed Easter bunny. 

A photographer who booked this space for a shoot shared the following Peerspace review: “Loved shooting in the main studio. The dual direction of sunlight in there is amazing! Always clean, lots of props, plenty of space. Can’t wait to edit the photos from this maternity session. Super thankful I was allowed to reschedule my original booking due to heavy rain in the forecast.”

4. Include some real animals

What if your kids are scared of costumed characters? Not to worry. You can still capture some adorable photos of your kids with an Easter bunny. Stage some photos with a real rabbit, or with other adorable animals like chickens or ducklings. 

This beautiful flower farm in Lebanon, TN is just 30 minutes from Nashville and is home to fluffy bunnies, chickens, and, of course, gorgeous seasonal flowers.

“This was without a doubt the best host experience I’ve had,” shares a director who booked this farm for a production. “The property was beautiful and accommodating. The hosts respond quickly and went above and beyond my expectations for our production. 11/10 will definitely be using this location again.”

5. Put on your Sunday best 

Here’s an Easter family photoshoot idea that’s perfect for families who want a more formal touch. Have the whole family put on their favorite formalwear, then head out to a studio where your formalwear can shine.

This bright and open Los Angeles studio has tons of bright flowers and sophisticated design touches, perfect for a more formal springtime photoshoot. You can add props like painted eggs or baskets for your kids to pose with or keep it simple for a minimalist look.  

6. Let your kids open their Easter baskets

One of the most adorable Easter moments is when your kids discover their baskets from the Easter Bunny. Why not tell your kids that the Easter Bunny paid them an early visit so you can get some extra adorable pics? Set out an Easter basket filled with goodies, then stage pictures of your kids with them for maximum cuteness. 

You can either snap pics at home or change up the location by shooting at a Peerspace home, like this gorgeous craftsman space in Los Angeles. It is a super stylish, 2,000-square-foot home with tons of natural light and boho mid-century modern furnishings.

7. Wear Easter-themed costumes 

Who says costumed photoshoots are just for Halloween? Dress your kids up in some adorable Easter-inspired costumes. Imagine how cute your toddler would look dressed as a fluffy chick or a floppy-eared bunny. 

You could also wear family costumes for your photoshoot or even wear color-coordinated outfits. Keep an eye out for spaces with neutral backdrops where your choice of wardrobe can shine, like this open studio space in Los Angeles. It’s a professional space that includes lighting gear and different colored walls to provide several unique looks, all in one place.

8. Include your pets

Don’t forget to include your family pets in the costumed fun! You could dress your dog up in adorable bunny ears, or humiliate your cat with an easter egg hat. 

Keep an eye out for outdoor Peersapce venues where you can bring your pets. This sprawling farm in Soddy Daisy, Tennesse offers plenty of scenic outdoor backdrops, perfect for a family Easter photoshoot in the great outdoors. 

9. Bake Easter treats

Do your kids love to cook or bake? Why not put their culinary talents to the test by staging an Easter photoshoot in the kitchen?

Help your kids whip up some homemade chocolate bunnies or rice treats, and photograph them having fun. Not only will you get to spend some quality time together, but you’ll get to enjoy both some adorable photos and delicious treats.

You can take this Easter family photoshoot idea to the next level by hosting at a Peerspace kitchen, like this farmhouse kitchen in Kensington, New Hampshire. Gather around the marble countertopped island while you and your loved ones bake and snack.
