Naples, Florida is a little slice of heaven here on earth.  We have been soaking up every second of Florida’s warm weather while exploring some of our favorite beaches in Naples.  We spent time at Clam Pass walking along the water’s edge and collecting seashells of every kind.  We visited the Naples Pier and took in the beauty of the beachside homes.  We also spent time at Seagate Beach near the Naples Grande Beach Resort and had the best time watching the waves crash into the rock jetty.  The variety of beaches in Southwest Florida is so much fun to explore.  We are always excited at the chance to photograph every last inch of palm trees and sugar white sand so when Lauren reached out to book a family session on the beach we were thrilled!

This incredibly beautiful family was so gracious and their joy and love for each other was absolutely radiant.  Lauren is such a sweet mom and her girls had the most precious smiles as they posed with her among the palm trees.  We chatted as we strolled down the boardwalk on our way to the beach.  Our toes hit the sand and the girls had a blast running and splashing in the waves while their adorable baby brother smiled and cooed for the camera.  His gorgeous eyes and smile lit up as he saw his daddy laugh.

The blessing of family is one of the most precious gifts on earth.  We can speak from experience that children grow up faster than a parent can ever imagine and being able to document each stage of life for families is a privilege that we don’t take for granted.  We have been both honored and humbled by the gift of photographing portrait sessions for families vacationing in Southwest Florida!
