Hill Family on Hilton Head Island

With Tropical Storm Debby barreling down on us, we weren’t sure we’d be able to get our beach session in. But the Hill Family is an adventurous group!

I had photographed their portraits 4 years ago when they vacationed on Folly Beach. So I was super excited when Dave emailed to ask if I would consider coming to Hilton Head to photograph this year’s updates? It was so cool to see how much the kids had grown! Some of them, I hadn’t even met yet because they weren’t even born then. 🙂

We had an absolute BLAST, catching up, braving the storm (until it sent us scurrying inside), and capturing some fun family memories to commemorate this new chapter in their lives.

Watkins Family on Hilton Head Island

Our favorite clients are personal referrals from good friends and family. So when friend, neighbor, client, and collaborator, Mackenzie Citro of Just Kenzie Jewelry asked us if we could photograph her cousin’s beautiful family when they were vacationing on Hilton Head Island, we were so honored!

Celebrating their parent’s 70th birthdays, the Watkins Family rented a beautiful house in the immaculate Sea Pines Resort for the week. I met up with them on a beautiful evening, for a fun beach family photo shoot. On the boardwalk to the beach, a magical scene with the sun filtering through the trees reminded me of an enchanted forest from a distant fairy-tale. From there we continued on to the beach, where the evening light, summer breeze, and soft blue skies were a picture perfect scene every photographer hopes for!

The kids did great! And everyone was so much fun to work with! Many thanks to Emily for coordinating everything. And CONGRATULATIONS to Ron & Susan…may you have many many more!!!
