This past weekend, I had the pleasure of photographing the Augustine family during their stay at the Hilton Pensacola Beach. They made a fantastic decision by opting for a mid-morning photoshoot, which turned out to be perfect for their one-year-old. While sunrise and sunset provide beautiful lighting, they can be tricky with young children who have their own schedules and temperaments.

The Augustine family brought along not just their adorable little one, but also grandparents and the mom’s sister. It was a wonderful opportunity to capture multi-generational memories, something truly special. The morning light was soft and flattering, casting a warm glow that highlighted the joy and togetherness of the family. But I will tell y’all.. it was HOT! We were on a mission to get out of the sun as quick as we could! The Florida heat is no joke, especially in the summer time.

We moved along the beach, finding perfect spots for group shots and individual portraits. The Hilton on Pensacola Beach provided a stunning backdrop with its pristine sands and clear waters. The grandparents held hands, walked along the shoreline, and shared a few quiet moments that reflected their years of love and companionship. The parents, with their one-year-old between them, created a picture-perfect family moment that I know they will cherish for years to come.

In the end, we captured a wonderful collection of photos that showcased not only the beauty of Pensacola Beach but also the warmth and love of the Augustine family. It was a privilege to be part of their vacation and to help them create lasting memories. If you’re planning a family photoshoot with young children, consider the mid-morning option. It might just be the perfect time to capture your family’s special moment.
