S. Family | Carolina Beach Photographer

I love getting to meet so many different families over the years! This sweet group was no exception. Mom and dad were joined by their three young adult sons on Carolina Beach after they decided they needed updated family photos. This evening featured absolutely gorgeous May weather right around the magical golden hour. Their relaxed blue and white outfits matched perfectly with the beach setting.

Side note: I also have three sons (and one daughter), so this family was a bit like looking into my future ❤️

I first met this beautiful family when I photographed their baby girl as a newborn (check out that session here!). Sweet Antonia is a lot bigger these days but still an absolute sweetheart. Her parents wanted updated family photos on Wrightsville Beach, which is always a favorite location. We had such a gorgeous evening together and I loved catching up ❤️

This family was absolutely adorable, especially the little guy. They all gathered on Wrightsville Beach to get some family photos of baby Sonny with his parents and grandparents. He, of course, was the star of the show and so stinking cute (just look at those suspenders!). He was so happy and loved checking out all the sights and sounds of the beach and getting lots of snuggles.

Golden hour beach sessions are some of my favorite things in the world! The hour right before sunset is known as “golden hour” and I think its even better on the beach. This precious family was on vacation on Ocean Isle Beach and wanted to remember the occasion with updated photos. The little girls in matching dresses were just absolutely adorable and they definitely have grandpa wrapped around their fingers ❤️

This gorgeous family of four spent some quality time at Ocean Isle Beach, one of my favorite local beaches! It had been raining most of the day, but cleared up just in time for our session. The two kids were such naturals and enjoyed both playing on the beach for candid shots and posing with mom and dad.

It’s such an honor to be a small part of so many families’ vacations and get to capture these special moments ❤️
