Can you believe these family beach photos? The Berries were the perfect example of why getting up at sunrise for a photo shoot on the beach is a good idea! It's really the only time I'll photograph my clients these days if I can help it. And Amelia Island was the perfect setting for this type of session since it's a private beach so it was literally empty!

Scroll on to see some of my favorites (of many) from these beautiful coastal family portrait session. And don't forget to spend a minute at the end of the post to check out their family film. One of my favorite things to incorporate into a photo session on the coast is a film. You can record the waves crashing, your children laughing, mom and dad embracing...it all works.
