BEACH SESSIONS


Florida's gorgeous beaches provide a perfect backdrop for your family photos! We have so many beautiful beaches to choose from in Vero Beach and in the surrounding areas. I don’t know about you, but something about the ocean and the beach brings my heart so much joy and peace. The beach really is a great spot for family photos!

Our Beach Sessions are a mixture of traditional portraits and lifestyle, documentary images. These sessions are very relaxed and easy-going. We want your family to be comfortable and to have fun. Think of our session as hanging out with your favorite people, and having your new friends (us!) along to make lasting, special photos for you to hang on your walls, give to your loved ones, and use as Christmas cards.

The best time for soft, natural light is about an hour before sunset. We will start approximately 1-2 hours before the sun sets.  Come barefooted, leave your sunglasses at home (so your eyes will adjust to the light - we don't want squinting), and make sure everyone has had a chance to use a restroom. Check your pockets and wrists, and remove anything you don’t want in your photos. Have a bite to eat beforehand, or a bring a picnic basket with you. Before your session we can talk about choosing a favorite activity for our session, maybe flying a kite, kicking a ball, playing with beach toys, or even getting in the water with boogie or skim boards.

 

We'll start by getting some portraits of everyone together (and in separate groupings), then I will let your family interact and play together, while I document the sweet and fun moments. If necessary, I can direct your family, too.

Toward the end of your session I will usually ask everyone to come together for a few more group pictures. By then everyone is very relaxed, and usually quite sandy and wet, too, and these photos often end up being the favorites.

 
 

The ocean stirs the heart, inspires the imagination, and brings eternal joy to the soul.
