Spring Island Extended Family Portraits

Our first Spring Island family portrait :

One of our many job perks is seeing homes, islands and venues that are all unique. Our drive out to Spring Island had us oohing and ahhhing because of the wild and naturalness of the views that left a lasting impression.

Southern Lowcountry at it’s best :

In a nutshell, our clients yard was a Lowcountry back-drop dream of grand oaks with draping moss, reflective waters, winding wood driveways and the cherry on top was a family with oodles of humor.

The Family :

When 13 family members come together and a couple of dogs gather together, you know there is gonna be some energy. The grands, their 3 kids, spouses and 6 grand-kids. For simplicity, they went with a cream and denim palette. Generally, we have the kids in a pop of contrast. In this case, we reversed it with the grand-parents wearing blue and white checked shirts that pulled the eye to the center.

Larger Group Pro tip :

We wove in rocking chairs for ease and height staggering. The dogs dodged the photos and we kept our eyes on the banks for gators. And I may have learned a new trick for the abundance of bugs near our water portrait sites… a triple win. Enjoy!
