This warm and easygoing extended family came together for a beach portrait session, some family members all the way from Kentucky. The beach can be lovely at this time of year, and Jacksonville and St. Augustine offer so many good choices. We had worried about rain, but luckily, the weather brought us only striking clouds [...]
At nine in the morning, it wasn’t too hot yet and was a pleasant day for a photo session with the B family. I loved how as soon as I arrived, the children were energetic and interested in everything around us, the two older boys full of questions and talking about the joys of bugs [...]
This family from Ohio has been vacationing in Florida for years, and they realized it was time for a portrait session in beautiful Saint Augustine. This particular beach, like my favorite in Jacksonville, is pristine and full of natural beauty with the dunes and ocean (no houses to be seen!). Ruth and Roy—the grandparents—have been [...]
The F family has so many beautiful areas right near their house. I’ve always loved oaks draped with Spanish moss. I had fun exploring new spots, and little E is such a sweetie (and I adore those curls!)! I even got to use the green chair I found recently. It’s a perfect throne for a [...]
As soon as the B family got out of their car, I could tell these were sweet and happy boys. Little A had such a charming smile, and his big brother laughed at my silly jokes, which always makes me happy! B family, enjoy your sneak peek!
The M sisters are lovely and have such a sense of playfulness and wonder. The light was magical at the beach, and I’ve discovered that I personally love sea oats as much as I love the ocean. M family, enjoy your sneak peek!
This is one of my favorites from the session because it looks like [...]
This is definitely not your typical beach. It’s so serene here, and the driftwood adds a striking touch. H family was visiting Florida from Pennsylvania, and what better souvenir from their vacation than a photo session at the beach? Their two kids are so adorable, and their puppy was a charmer. H family, enjoy your [...]
This mom and daughter were both wearing clogs, which I loved, and the little girl was so sweet. And you have to love little K’s missing teeth; too cute!
I’ve always loved cypress trees, and they make for a charming backdrop. This is the R family, and as you can see, they are a fun family!
I just wanted to share a few of the R family from the portrait party. Good candids are sometimes hard to come by, but I loved the spontaneous hug this little boy gave his mom!
