Family Beach Session| Plant City Family Photographer

This was the first extended family session I’ve ever done…and I want to be 100% honest here. I was terrified. I’ve always been socially awkward in groups…I don’t really offer wedding photography because of the social anxiety I have. But at the same time, as a family photographer, I know how important and meaningful extended family sessions are.

This session was a celebration of the parent’s anniversary so all of their children were in town from out of state. These are such special memories for them and such a rare occasion considering they live in different states. So I put aside my anxiety and I am so glad I did. They were such a sweet family and I loved being able to capture the extended family and then more intimate portraits with smaller groups.
