Can I photograph a fun, sweet, large Family Portrait at Villa View Caribe in Taylor Bay, Turks & Caicos? Of course! Can I handle 8 adults, 2 infants, 2 toddlers, 4 school age children? Absolutely! When James, Senior Guest Experience Specialist at Luxury Retreats, asked me those questions I immediately thought about the possible tears, the patience overload, the silly games and fun expressions needed to capture so many little kids. What I didn't expect was 3 wonderful couples, 8 smiling kids and an amazing grandma.
The overcast sky worked like a giant softbox, reducing shadows, contrasts and squinting. The quite beach offered me the perfect background. The energy and involvement of the parents made the children laugh and have a good time. Everything came together for a picture perfect large family portrait. It's certainly not all about the best photographer!
It's summer time! Time to travel, soak up the sun, relax, have fun and enjoy a beautiful vacation. It's also time to rock the beach body you worked so hard for, making it memorable with a collection of amazing Turks and Caicos beach photos.
I had a blast photographing Shani and Danny! She is absolutely stunning and he's crazy about her. Together they chose her fabulous blue dress, the bikinis, the jewelry. Danny dreamed of his wife walking on the beach with a lace umbrella and little twinkle lights, so he created it - who doesn't love such a romantic man?!?
Capturing the Margaris Family Island Escape in Turks & Caicos has been a true pleasure. The enthusiastic parents set the mood for a perfect photo shoot, Â and the kids, 20 and 16, posed like expert models.

Their personal collection now includes 270 images and I can't wait to design their coffee-table book - it's going to be so elegant and beautiful!
Last year I had the pleasure to meet Ryan, Max, Lindel, Carlos and their beautiful wives and kids during their Caribbean vacation at Villa Hawksbill (Turks and Caicos Friends Vacation). Their amazing friendship, brought them back to Providenciales for another week of sun, beach, ocean, relax, fun and laughters.
In just a few months, the little ones changes so much, while the adults look the same or better!
I happily learned that my pictures are all over their homes, and I was excited to see all of them again. Let's make this family portrait at Villa Hawksbill a memorable one!
Green fields and farms are the classic background for most senior pictures in Missouri. Taking advantage of her family vacation at Beaches Resort & Spa, Shelby planned her senior photo shoot in Turks & Caicos. She is going to make her school friends jealous with her unique collection of sun-kissed, tropical, fun beach photos.
The Turks & Caicos water matched the color of Shelby's eyes. The soft breeze gave volume and waves to her long, beautiful hair. The ocean fulfilled her scuba diving passion. She could not pick a better location to mark her senior year!
What could be better than a horseback ride along the world’s best beach? A horseback ride IN the Turks & Caicos turquoise waters. Provo Ponies offers a once in a lifetime chance to enjoy the island in a truly magical way.
This time I had the chance to ride a local pony myself  and capture a collection of memorable pictures for 7 beautiful ladies. To celebrate Kristina's birthday and spend some quality time together, the girls planned an awesome vacation in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Riding the horses was one of the highlights of the trip and these great Provo Ponies pictures can prove it :-)
A Turks & Caicos girls vacation is certainly a great way to celebrate a birthday, or better two. The Tuscany Resort hosted 6 fierce and fabulous girlfriends, giving me the opportunity to capture their individual and beautiful beach pictures. The ladies embraced their curves and wear their best swimwear, forgetting New York's grey sky and making the best of the Turks & Caicos blue water and sunshine.
Orange is the signature color of this beautiful Palms Family Portrait. "What should I wear?" is probably the number one question I get asked before a photo shoot. It can be pretty confusing and stressful trying to decide what outfits would be best for your photography session. My "what to wear guide" is full of useful tips, such as be yourself, avoid patterns and logo, say yes to the texture and accessories, choose a palette that has a mix of neutral shades and a bright color.
What makes a Turks & Caicos family beach portrait truly special? The stunning location, the family connection, the fun and laughers, the perfect outfits, the casual and relaxed island atmosphere.
This gorgeous family and I, travelled from Beaches Resort to the 3 miles long Long Bay and then to the secluded Leeward beach. While mom and dad enjoyed the scenery's variety, the girls collected shells, played with the sand and danced in pointe shoes and leotards. Yes, a great Turks & Caicos family beach portrait is much more then a few snap shots taken by a stranger in front of your resort!
Looking for some pampering and relaxation before midnight feedings and sleep deprivation become the norm? A Turks & Caicos Babymoon is the perfect answer!
Pre-baby vacations are one of the hottest trends in travel today: this trips for parents-to-be provide the perfect setting to relax and reconnect as a couple before entering parenthood.
Lyvia and Pedro travelled all the way from Goiânia, Brazil, to enjoy a luxury vacation in Turks & Caicos. Baby Bruno will arrive this upcoming July. This collection of beautiful maternity pictures will take him back to when he was still a dream to come, a miracle of life, a "bump" in mom's belly.
