I loved Dee's first excited email: "We live in Chicago and knowing the beauty of these islands first hand (my family is from the Turks and Caicos), I am looking to use this opportunity to take some  pictures to freeze these memories in time.  My excitement: I just got our airline tickets last night, so the reality of the trip is setting in for me and the kids (Dimi 17 and Sammy 12). I found you via facebook last night with help from my god daughter and took the time to like Attimi Photography and look through your galleries which I absolutely love... Truly we are interested in and open to any background that screams Provo!'.
Visiting family can sometimes be an obligation... but it's always a great pleasure when your parents, brother, sister or oncle live in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Lou and Doug welcomed back Eric, Angela and Allison for a week of fun, relax, ocean loving and family bounding. The little one is adorable and she know it... how can you resist such a pretty face?
Debbie opened the car door and 4 pairs of amazing eyes were staring at me... seriously, is was a cuteness overload which got better and better every passing minute. 6 kids can be a challenge but, lucky me, Cole, Max, Delilah, Lucas, Oliver and Georgia are the amazing reflexion of their wonderful parents. Taking advantage of their friends' visit, Debbie planned the family portrait she dreamed of for years: Leeward Beach, sunset light, lollipops, a bottle of wine and a few beers... that's what I call great organisation!
A short flight from New York, a suitcase packed with summer clothes, a well deserved vacation, excitement, joy and family time  = Turks and Caicos, here we come! It was a real pleasure meeting Nancy, Eric, Harris and Henry and take a few pictures in the gardens and the beach of the Somerset Resort. I loved the boys round cheeks and their cute, happy smiles - adorable!
