Stephanie + Chris | Atlantic Beach Family Session

Any time I come to Florida, I just have to do a few sessions on the beach. There is something about the beach that is so peaceful. I love the smell of the salty air and feeling the sand on my toes.

I came back to Jacksonville Beach for my winter mini sessions but offered a few more intimate and longer sessions on the beach. I was super excited when Stephanie and her family reached out to me to book one! North Florida can be a bit tricky in the winter months and you just never know if it will be cold or hot. Lucky for us, the weather was amazing!

Stephanie’s little girl was so excited to be on the beach! Kids usually warm up to me pretty fast, and she was no exception. She was ready to go!

We went to one of my most favorite beaches in Jacksonville, Atlantic Beach. There are usually less people though, and there was a little wooden pier that I just love to have in my pictures. She climbed, smiled, and ran around so it wasn’t hard to capture her smiles and beauty.

I could tell that everyone was having so much fun, which is always my ultimate goal. I love when we can all leave a session feeling like we had a great time. It never feels like work!

I just can’t get enough of their session and the beautiful sunset that we captured during all the running around. It was one of the most amazing sunsets I’ve ever seen, to be honest. In fact, not long after their session, as I was packing up my car, we had a “moon rise”, which is super rare!

Thank you again Stephanie and Chris for having me be a part of your memories and sharing your time with me again!
