Selby Ann | 18th Birthday Portraits in Palm Beach, Florida

On July 11th, 2024, I had the pleasure of capturing Selby Ann’s 18th Birthday Portraits in Palm Beach, Florida. Her sweet mother & aunt (Twins!!) planned a Palm Beach getaway for her birthday complete with a two-hour portrait session all over Palm Beach! They traveled from Tennessee and stayed at my favorite spot, The Colony Hotel! We began our session in the westward part of Worth Avenue which gives a charming Mediterranean vibe. We then headed east on Worth Avenue, capturing lifestyle portraits along the way.

Selby Ann brought three dresses for her session! The first was an adorable light pink, smocked, strapless dress with eyelet ruffles at the bottom. It paired beautifully with the scenes of Worth Avenue but especially with the Colony Hotel. This is where we did a quick stop for her to change into her second dress!

The second dress was a fun white, tiered ruffle, strapless dress! We captured this dress around the Colony Hotel before changing into her last and final dress—the showstopper!

For the final dress, she wore a Pink Floral, Ruffle Tired, Cut-out Chiffon Gown by Mac Duggal! This dress was stunning on her and so perfect for Palm Beach! We then headed east again, towards the beach! We began at the Worth Avenue Clock Tower, capturing some dreamy princess-like portraits! These were some of my favorite shots from the entire session!

We ended her session on the Palm Beach seashore where she joyfully finished the session by getting into the ocean! It was such a fun way to end this very fun birthday portrait session!

This session was such a joy to capture! I hope you enjoy these highlights!

Coastal Style In-Home Family Newborn Portraits

It was an absolute pleasure working with Allison again, this time to capture her whole family as they welcomed the newest member of the family—Kai! Their coastal in-home family newborn portraits were one for the books! From their stunning neutral coastal home to their classic light blue and white attire, to their adorable pup! Not to mention they are a stunning family! Everything was picture-perfect! Sweet Kai was a sleepy dream, baby, and too adorable for words! And wait till you see his dreamy nursery!

Allison: It was an honor to document your family during this special season! I hope you enjoy these photos for many years to come!

Coastal Family Vacation Portraits in Singer Island, Florida

It was a pleasure to capture this sweet family during their vacation to Singer Island, Florida! The session began with the inlet as their background and then we headed to the beach. Their neutral coastal color palette complemented the Singer Island inlet and beach perfectly! I hope you enjoy the highlights of their lifestyle coastal family vacation portraits!

Tropical Clementine & Eucalyptus Themed Brunch Baby Shower at the Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida

On March 2nd, 2024, I had the pleasure of capturing Allison’s tropical clementine & eucalyptus-themed baby shower. It was a breathtaking event at the iconic Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. White, scalloped umbrellas filled the scene with bistro lights hanging above. White orchids, lush green monstera leaves, muted eucalyptus branches & bright orange clementines filled the tables. The focal point of the event space gave a tropical bohemian vibe with rattan chairs, detailed signage, and eye-catching balloon art.

The stunning mother-to-be: Allison wore a blue, smocked dress with the cutest blue shoes! The brunch baby shower was filled with beautiful smiling faces from around the globe—all there to shower Allison with love as she prepared to welcome sweet baby Kai! It was a gorgeous day in Palm Beach for her outdoor brunch baby shower! I was honored to document the elegant affair!

Allison, wishing you all the best as you step into this beautiful new season of motherhood! Thank you for the pleasure of capturing your stunning baby shower!
