I must have been a real good girl to receive such a special Christmas gift from Santa: a picture-perfect family, genuine, sweet, connected, fun and beautiful inside and out. Great outfits - checked!; stunning location (Leeward Beach) - checked!; sunny afternoon & dramatic sunset - checked!; fabulous eyes, lots of laughters, love and joy - checked, checked, checked!
Christmas is all about love, peace, joy and family. To celebrate this special time of the year, the Sheppard Family booked a vacation to The Somerset on Grace Bay, in the beautiful Turks and Caicos.
Replacing the white snow with warm, soft, caribbean sand is the dream of many people all over the world... they made it happen!
A recent engagement, a family vacation, a trip to the Turks and Caicos Island... Kristen and Niko have plenty of reasons to celebrate and suspend their memories in time.
I loved Kristen's timid reaction to my posing suggestions and silly jokes :-)
What does it take to transform a crying hour into  a picture perfect family portrait? Certainly a good dose of patience, lots of playful distractions, the strenght to ignore the tears, a few bribing candies and a photographer always ready to capture the random smiles.
Kids are unpredictable but so cute and adorable, even when they wake up on the wrong side of the bed... we knew that sooner or later the joy of a two years old will show up and it did indeed. It was a pleasure to photograph this beautiful family at The Venetian resort, Turks and Caicos, and I can't wait to do it again.
It has been such a pleasure to meet and photograph Rafay, Endzha and Sabina at The Gansevoort Turks & Caicos last Saturday. With an early start, we had the all place for ourselves... nothing beat the beauty of a deserted Grace Bay.
Little Sabina, 11 months old, stole the show with her adorable smile and chubby cheeks, but the gorgeous mom and her green eyes truly turned everyone's head. Cherry on the cake, an handsome dad... what a perfect family portrait!
I admit it, I have a crush on the all family! They are beautiful in and out, caring for each other, happy and in love with life.
I crossed Joy at the Regent Grand's lobby and in a few minutes the family portrait was planned - no stress, no fuss, simple. After all, the beautiful beaches of Providenciales, Turks and Caicos, are the best photography backgrounds...
"Love begins in a moment, grows over time, and last for eternity". To celebrate their golden anniversary, Sharron and Dick planned a vacation to the sunny Turks and Caicos Islands, enjoying a fun week of kids and grandkids.
With 6 master bedrooms, Villa Tamarind offered the family the perfect setting and a pristine beach to play, have fun, run, swim and take pictures ;-)
A family portrait is often mom's idea... the kids play the game and dad comes along hoping the session will be over soon. It was a real pleasure meeting Jerry at Gansevoort Turks + Caicos lobby, chat about photographing his family and handling him my card ; a quick phone call to confirm the details et voila, the shoot was on.
I chose simple and clean backgrounds to put the focus on the family: the leading lines, created by the wood, sails, trees and water, just take your eyes where it matter: a gorgeous mom, a charismatic dad, a beautiful daughter and an handsome son.
The Wedding; the first baby; Ari turns one; the second baby; Ari is two; the 5th wedding anniversary... and everything is captured in photographs: an amazing collection of love, family, commitment, happiness, life.
Every year I'm very excited to welcome back Sandhya and Asif to The Somerset, Turk and Caicos: they are a gorgeous and sweet couple with the best kids ever. Posing a baby and an active 2 years old boy is always a challenge but I just love it... I have the best job in the world!
Life, Love, Family. There is no better way to celebrate a birthday then gathering this big 3 miracles and fly to the Turks and Caicos to enjoy a week in the sun. Two beautiful daughters and son-in-law, a loving husband and to adorable grandkids - Trudy has it all.
A moment like this deserve to photographed and saved forever... after all, Attimi Photography is Love & LIfe. Captured.
