Tag: Naples Portrait Photography

We have the pleasure of photographing Allison & Philip’s wedding this coming Saturday. Instead of an engagement session they opted to do a family photo by the beach in Naples. We were busy taking pictures in the surf when a rogue wave crashed into the group. Of course this caught everyone off guard, as you can see by their expressions. The first photo was taken when the wave made impact. The second photo, taken seconds later, is probably my favorite family portrait I have ever captured. True, not everyone is looking at the camera. But when looking at the photo one immediately wants to be a part of their spirited and loving family. Formal shots don’t always have to be the same old formal. Thanks Allison and Philip, we’ll see you on the weekend!

I took these photos with Matthew while he was between one and two months old. Over the course of a couple afternoons, he let me snap away without any fuss at all. At times we were accompanied by older bro and pet, but for the most part it was just Matthew staring sweetly at me. As the youngest of four, this baby is pretty easygoing. It amazes me to see this giant personality in such small form. Isn’t his hair the best? The shoot took place in Matthew’s cozy yellow nursery decorated with moons and stars.
