While Away Photography

The sweetest memories are made at the beach!!

The "stroll down the beach" is one of my favorite candid pics! Everyone feels ridiculous doing it (because who regularly walks down a beach getting stared at by a photographer? 😂) but it always makes for the most precious photos! Just look how adorable these two are!!!

Moms are almost always the memory keepers — taking the photos, scheduling the sessions, documenting everyone else. But your children deserve photos with YOU in them, too, Mamas!! The way they look at you right now is something worth preserving. 🥹

Are you ready for me to capture some photos with you in the frame?

You do not need perfectly behaved kids or for your kids to stand in a perfect pose for meaningful photos. Some of the sweetest galleries come from sessions that felt wonderfully unscripted in the moment.

Exhibit A: Little dude snugglin' on his mama. I miss those moments with my own kids and adore capturing these moments!

The photos parents end up loving most are usually the ones nobody planned. The belly laughs, the hand squeezes, the life that happens in between poses — that’s the good stuff.

What's one thing your family or kiddo does that you never want to forget?

One of my favorite things is hearing families say, ‘That was actually fun.’ Family photos don’t have to feel stiff or stressful. My goal is always to create space for connection first — beautiful images that capture your family authentically are the result!

Question time: What’s your biggest fear when it comes to family photos?

☀️ We beat the rain!! It rained on my drive to the beach and when I got there? Blue skies! ☀️

If we're having weathery days, you can bet I'm cross referencing 3-4 weather apps at least 24-48 before your session!

☔️ Rainy day peace of mind ❤️ : Since we can't control the weather, if your session ever gets rained out and we can't reschedule during your vacation, you will get your deposit back!

This vacation was a birthday celebration for this beauty and her family ❤️! Pic 3 is my favorite - what a personality!

This little cutie has got her Daddy wrapped around her finger 🥹❤️
