A Family at Hollywood Beach FL | Lifsetyle Family Photographer

I loved getting to meet this family for their photo session last year, so I was absolutely thrilled to get them on the calendar again for this year! During the pandemic, we’ve all been taking refuge outdoors, as a break from the four walls of our homes, and many of us have been spending a lot of time at the beach. So it was no surprise that this family wanted this year’s session on the sand, and I was happy to oblige! We were blessed with an oasis of sunshine between weeks of rain, and this family brought their own inner light to reflect the light of the sunshine!

This fam is always a favorite! Even when the third child makes the first child exclaim that she's not a fan of third children, and mama's earring has technical difficulties, we manage to capture some beautiful moments in between the chaos, which is equally beautiful. And a post-photo session swim and meal was the ultimate reward. Love you guys!

While I’ve found joy in self portraiture during the pandemic, it feels SO good to have my So You families back in front of my camera for their annual family photos! And this is one of the families who have been with me the longest. It’s so amazing to have watched them grow from looking for the teenage mutant ninja turtles in front of the house, to a gender reveal for baby #3, her newborn session, and the annual progression since!! This year, their love and joy were as exuberant as ever, and I cannot tell you how many times I oohed, awe’d, and gushed over this year’s selection of photos!
