I have been meaning to post this session for a long time so I’m happy to finally share it with you. Some friends of ours were visiting from the Atlanta area this past summer and wanted to fit in a family session. They were up for anything so they let me have free reign over the concept and styling. I am a sucker for nautical shoots and hadn’t done a full nautical family session yet. To make it not too over the top, we added some non-nautical props in nautical colors like balloons, lemons and strawberries, and later added in some cupcakes at the marina. The evening we had scheduled to shoot (the day before they were driving home) came along with some stormy skies and rain. We waited out the rain as long as possible but then had limited time to shoot before we lost all of our light. Despite the less than ideal conditions they were ready to brave it and the result is some family fun, soft light and pops of color. We had a great time!
