Golden Moments at Ayr Mount: A Family Session in the Heart of Autumn

Ayr Mount provided the perfect backdrop for this recent family session, with its rich history and sprawling landscapes in Hillsborough, NC.

As the leaves turned to warm shades of autumn, this beautiful family of four—mom, dad, their young son, and daughter—enjoyed a day of connection and laughter in the glow of the season’s golden light.

We wandered the historic grounds, capturing candid moments of the kids playing in fallen leaves and taking in the peaceful scenery. The timeless charm of Ayr Mount brought out a sense of warmth and nostalgia, making this session one to remember.

Location: Ayr Mount

Address: 376 St Marys Rd, Hillsborough, NC 27278
