Sometimes I have to pinch myself when I pack up my photography gear and head to locations like the Naples Grande Beach Resort for a family photo session in Naples, Florida. The stunning beaches, clear blue waters, and breathtaking sunsets make Naples Grande Beach Hotel a perfect spot for a family getaway and even better location to document family memories in a gorgeous location.

I personally believe the best souvenirs you can take back from any family vacation are memories, and I believe that photos allow you to hold on to the memories of each season longer than our minds can recall every detail. I had a blast photographing this sweet Chicago family while they were in Naples. Victoria’s family has made it a yearly tradition to all spend a week in Naples, and she wanted some family portraits taken while they were in Florida to document this special trip for them.

I met their family at one of my favorite beaches in Naples for an afternoon of running along the beach chasing birds, collecting seashells, building sandcastles and splashing in the water as the Florida sun set over the water.  As a fellow boy mama, I know how important it is to document those sweet moments with your little men, so it was a huge priority for me to photograph not only Victoria and her family smiling at the camera, but to capture all those little moments of her little men cuddling and snugging her.

If you’re planning a family vacation to the Naples Grande Beach Hotel or just spending time in Naples, booking a family beach photography session in advance is recommended. It’s the perfect way to capture your family’s memories on the beach and make the most of your time in Naples.
