We love photographing family sessions because it's an excellent opportunity to capture the unique bond and love between each member. And it always gets even more exciting when we see a location that makes for a fantastic backdrop for the session. Our recent Gould's Inlet family session on Saint Simons Island for Jane's family was an incredible experience. We were genuinely amazed by the beauty of this gorgeous beach and the perfect setting for this family's moments to unfold. Jane is our previous client and mentioned that she loves the authenticity and high quality of the work. This was the third time we were photographing her, and we were so excited to do so again. 

Gould's Inlet Family Session With Jane

Jane got in touch with us, hoping to get some photos of her daughter, her dog, and herself for a family portrait - she mentioned that having lived in the area for four years, it was time to hang something special on the walls. Jane's family is just as lovely as Jane; Grandma and furry friend rounded out this trio for their family photo shoot. This session was especially fun because Jane had told us that she wanted it to reflect their typical beach trips as a family - full of chaos and excitement! We ended up with some beautiful shots that perfectly captured this sentiment.

Jane's family portraits session at Gould's Inlet in Saint Simons Island was absolutely stunning. The beach was gorgeous, and the cool breeze with the perfect lighting added to the stunning backdrop and wonderful family moments. The family enjoyed every second of the fun beach session, from tummy-tickling moments to adorable hugs. Even their two dogs couldn't resist joining in - running around in the sand, posing for pictures, and generally looking just adorable. We were all captivated by the beautiful grandma-granddaughter bond. It was magical how just one tight hug between them melted our hearts.

Every moment between Jane and her daughter reflected their beautiful bond as they laughed and played around the beach, making sand castles and walking down the shore hand in hand. It was so delightful to witness how natural it felt for them to be together. To top it all off, the white sand and pristine setting, complete with sparkling water, made it all so incredibly beautiful. Jane and her daughter created a truly special memory during this beach day adventure.

We had a fantastic time capturing the wonderful family at their beach session, but we adored little Jane's daughter - she looked like an angel playing in the sand. Her cheerful laughs and beaming eyes brought a lightness to the air that was filled with pure innocence and love. Her tiny footprint trails along the beach as she ran around added so much happiness to our hearts. Overall it was a joyous time of piggyback rides, toothy smiles, laughter, and unceasing energy while they celebrated their lovely family.
