Bay Colony Beach Club, located in Naples, Florida, is absolutely breathtaking!  Not only are its residents surrounded by stunning scenery at every turn, but the club boasts a wide variety of amenities including tennis, golf, shopping, and fine dining.  Marie and her husband, Ryan, had travelled down from Chicago to visit Ryan’s parents here; and we were thrilled to be able to connect with them for a family portrait session!  From the moment Marie reached out to book her session, we could not wait to meet her family!  Her kind words and enthusiasm for the session were wonderful reminders of why we love serving so many families who are traveling to vacation in Southwest Florida!

Naples, Florida is one of our favorite places on earth, and its beaches are some of the world’s finest.  Bay Colony Beach Club’s pristine private beach sits just south of the very first place we visited in Naples – the Turtle Club on Vanderbilt Beach.  Returning to this little slice of paradise years later to photograph a family session was a dream come true, and we could not have had a more gorgeous evening for it!  Marie and Ryan have the most beautiful children, and it was so much fun capturing their heart-melting smiles!  They were all such a joy, and did an amazing job for their session!

As we moved throughout the grounds, down the boardwalks and out onto the beach, we chatted as we photographed family and individual portraits along the sand.  The sunset was incredible, and provided the perfect golden-hour glow as we talked and laughed while strolling along the waters edge.  It was such a relaxing and beautiful session, and truly a gift to document!  We hope that this sweet family enjoyed every last minute of their time together in Naples, Florida!
