Vacations are a great time for Family portraits on the beach!

The lovely Mace family took a vacation from Ohio and headed to Florida.  Like any good family headed to FL, the first thing they did was hit Disney World.  Then they stopped off for a few days in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL (just down A1A from Jacksonville Beach and St. Augustine Beach) at one of the beautiful resorts there.  Mom thought this would be a great time to get some family portraits on the beach.  However, she didn’t want anyone stressing out over them (she was already stressing enough for everyone!), so she kept it a secret until the morning of the session!  This included planning and packing all of the coordinated outfits.  I think Mom did an awesome job of outfitting the family!  They look great together without being too matchy matchy.  As for Mom’s secret keeping abilities- I think she is the person I want on my side when I plan my next surprise party.  :)

Here are a few photographs from their family portrait session on the beach.

This next photo Mom ordered as a 24×36 canvas to go above the fireplace.  It was GORGEOUS!!!  She is going to send me a photo when they have it hung, so I will have to share on the blog for sure.
