FEBRUARY 3, 2025 • SANIBEL, FLORIDA

A Beachside Family Portrait Session

Capturing this sweet family's portraits on Sanibel Island was truly special. It was their first time visiting the southwestern side of Florida, and I wanted to ensure their experience was as memorable as possible. The setting was picture-perfect with the soft ocean breeze, golden light, and waves gently rolling in. 

We planned the session just before they left, giving them one last beautiful memory of their trip. The children played, laughed, and explored the shoreline, completely immersed in the moment. Watching them reminded me how important it is to remain present and embrace life's simple joys. Children have this effortless way of bringing us back to our childlike wonder, and being part of that moment is something I'll always appreciate. 

As the sun set over the horizon, I couldn’t help but smile, knowing these portraits would return them to this beautiful day. Sanibel Island gave them a beautiful farewell, and I was honored to capture it.
