A stunning autumn (we’re not winter yet, are we?) day at the Four Seasons Ocean Club – perfect weather for this beautiful Bahamas family portrait session. It’s a busy time of year for me as so many visitors come to the islands to celebrate Thanksgiving, and I love that they take advantage of our gorgeous backdrops to take their annual Christmas card photos.
The Ocean Club is set on a stunning beach and has beautiful landscaped gardens with palms and hammocks scattered throughout. I loved the lines and shadows that the end of day sun began to cast as we warmed up for our session – and these gorgeous little ones kept us all on our toes and quite entertained with their antics. A lot of clients say they would like natural, unposed photos and yet they automatically keep looking at the camera. I try to balance out both styles so that everyone in the group is happy – the traditionalists and the ones who are happy to shake it up a little!
Over the years I’ve spent a lot of time photographing at the Ocean Club. The majority of my photo shoots have been luxury destination weddings, so I love when I get to slow down a bit and spend time on a Bahamas family portrait session – it’s a great way to get to know your clients on a more personal level.
