As the golden sun dipped below the horizon, B and J found themselves on the sandy shores of the Florida Panhandle, surrounded by the Gulf breeze. With their companion C leading the way on the nature trail, we began their evening beach session, commemorating the beautiful memories they’ve built since they moved into the area in 2021.

I met D and D two summers ago in when I was roadtripping from Seattle, Washington to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. We connected back then and I did photos for their sweet family (and it was significantly warmer!).

My very first session of 2022 was with these two on January 3 on the beach.

Let me tell you the Florida panhandle is not as warm as some my think in the early months of the year. It was cold and windy, but these two braved it! B + N met at N’s work a few years back and the rest is history. We bonded over our love of sushi and trying new food. It was such a fun time exploring and hanging out on the beach when no one else was out there!
