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!
The Muth Family | Worth Avenue Family Vacation Portraits
It was a pleasure capturing the stunning Muth family portraits during their vacation in Palm Beach! Their Worth Avenue vacation portraits we relaxed, candid & joyful. It was a cloudy and slightly rainy Summer day, but that didn’t stop their session from being anything but sunshine! Worth Avenue cleared out because of the weather, leaving us with clear sidewalks and pathways which is always a plus in my book!
Most people get nervous about the rain when it comes to photo shoots, and some rainy days definitely require rescheduling but if there is only a bit of light rain or a small passing shower, it might make your session even dreamier! There is something magical about Worth Avenue right after the rain clears. The way raindrops fall from the buildings, the sidewalks glisten & the birds come out chirping. Simply one of my favorite things. That’s how this session ended, we caught a passing shower in the middle of our session but it passed in about five minutes, and because we were in Worth Ave. with plenty of coverage, no one was soaked! It was a perfect reflection of this gorgeous family session!
Muth Family: It was a joy to work with you all! I hope you love your family photos for many years to come!
Amanda + Daniel | Palm Beach Maternity Portraits
On Saturday, February 20th, I had the pleasure of capturing Amanda and Daniel’s Palm Beach maternity portraits! Their session was on a gorgeous day with perfect weather and the dreamiest sunset. Their session began on Worth Avenue. We captured some lifestyle portraits along the timeless street then headed to the Worth Avenue clock tower! After a handful of stunning portraits at the clock tower, we finished up on the beach! Winter pastel sunsets are my absolute favorite, and this session had a gorgeous one!
Amanda and Daniel: Thank you for having me capture your maternity photos! It was such pleasure working with both of you! I hope you enjoy looking back on these photos for many years to come! Best wishes with the exciting season ahead!
