Georgia Holiday | Savannah & Tybee Island

“If you search the world for happiness, you may find it in the end, for the world is round and will lead you back to your door.” ~ ROBERT BRAULT

Photo of lighthouse off Tybee Island, Georgia.Ahhhhh…..Georgia! How I adore my new home State. It’s been almost a year since my family moved to Georgia and we’ve been doing a lot of exploring as we make this our home. We couldn’t be happier. Such a wonderful fit. We recently took a mini holiday in the Savannah area. It has always been a place that I dreamed of visiting and I am so happy to be only a short three and a half hour drive from there. We stayed in Savannah and visited Tybee Island and Jekyll Island. I brought one film camera, one lens and two rolls of film to photograph the area as I wanted to keep things simple and organic as I captured this beautiful area. Above is a photo of one of the lighthouses off Tybee Island from our dolphin boat excursion with Captain Mike. It was the best dolphin outing we’ve ever had with great views and a ton of dolphin sightings at sunset.

Above is a photo of one of the beaches at Tybee Island. It was a hot day, but the water was refreshing and the beach wasn’t overly crowded. Pretty perfect.

The first two pictures below were from our visit at Jekyll Island‘s historic district. The remaining images are from around historic Savannah. I love the live oak trees and Spanish moss that delicately cascade down the tree limbs. I also love how in the south, people know how to make the ordinary extraordinary with their landscaping and the way their homes are presented. Quite magical and romantic. Such a beautiful area full of history and culture. I can’t wait to go back and explore some more.

WHAT TO WEAR FOR YOUR SPRING FAMILY PORTRAIT SESSION

Spring sessions photograph beautifully with soft, light colors and classic clothing that feels timeless.

Color Palette Ideas:
Soft blues
Ivory and cream
Pale pinks
Sage green
Light neutrals

These colors photograph beautifully with spring blooms and natural light.

Tips for Coordinating Your Family:
Choose one outfit you love (often mom’s dress) and build the rest of the family’s outfits around it. Avoid everyone wearing the exact same color and instead aim for colors that complement each other.

Textures Photograph Beautifully:
Linen, cotton, eyelet, and soft knits add subtle visual interest without distracting from your family.

Keep It Classic:
Simple, timeless clothing ensures your portraits will feel beautiful for years to come.
Most importantly, choose outfits that feel comfortable and allow your children to move and play naturally.

If you would like help selecting outfits for your session, I am always happy to offer guidance.

This is one of my favorite times to photograph families — soft light, blooming trees, warmer weather and children who are finally happy to be outside again.

Spots are limited and tend to fill quickly each year.

If you’ve been hoping for updated family portraits this spring, now is the time to reserve your session.

When is the best time for a newborn session?

For those tiny, curled-up, super sleepy images, I usually recommend the first two weeks.

But honestly… there’s no wrong time to document a new baby.

Many of my families choose to schedule their session around six weeks. By then baby is a little bigger, often more wide-eyed and curious, and parents and siblings are usually more rested and settling into their new rhythm.

You may still get some sleepy moments — just a little less curled up.

Every stage of these early days is beautiful and worth remembering.

One day your children will look for photos of you together.

Not the perfect moments — the real ones. The laughter. The closeness. The way you held them in this season of life.

Be in the frame. These are the photographs they will treasure most.

Spring in Georgia is fleeting — the blossoms, the soft greens, the golden evening light. 🌿🌸

If you’ve been thinking about updating your family portraits, now is the season. My spring calendar is filling quickly and peak bloom only lasts a few short weeks.

Reserve your session before the blossoms fade.
