Spring Family Pictures

“The trick is to enjoy life. Don’t wish away your days, waiting for better ones.” ~ MARJORIE PAY HINCKLEY

Last year I was commissioned for this family’s portraits and I was so happy to get to photograph this adorable family. I had photographed them a few years back, so it was such a treat to create photographic artwork for them again. The girls had grown quite a bit, but their sweet personalities and wonderful manners will still the same. This family is full of bookworms and they spend a lot of time at this library, so it made perfect sense to use it as their backdrop for their family portraits.

Since the architecture is light in color, I thought it would be fitting for a light color palette in wardrobe selection, which is exactly what I suggested for this family wear. Fitting for the location and season. I think the mom did a fantastic job pulling their outfits together. Mom started with the girl’s outfits and then built on that. Love how their clothes coordinate, but aren’t matchy matchy. Great example of what to wear for Spring family pictures.

Love this area of the historic district of Jekyll Island. Pretty walkways, roads, buildings, trees and scenery. It is like taking a step back in time in many ways. I have been photographing my daughter in this exact location for the last few summers and it never disappoints.

There is something about the ocean in black and white that feels both quiet and dramatic.

In this image from Jekyll Island, the clouds along the horizon almost become their own landscape, while the waves rolling onto shore add movement, texture and depth. A simple beach scene, but one that feels timeless.

What a beautiful way to spend part of summer break - studying, writing papers and taking quizzes while tucked away on Jekyll Island. Not a bad “classroom” at all.

She is heading into her sophomore year at GCSU, and this portrait felt like the perfect way to mark the season - relaxed, confident and surrounded by the timeless beauty of Jekyll Island’s historic district, with live oaks and Spanish moss framing the moment.

Had the best time photographing this beautiful girl on Jekyll Island this past week. 

Her mom dreamed of soft clouds, magical color, gentle ocean waves and a calm evening without too much wind - and Jekyll delivered.

It was the sweetest way to begin the week and such a special reminder that preteen portraits deserve to feel just as meaningful, beautiful and timeless.
