Paradise Point Wedding Photography | Louise + Ken

Louise and Ken were married on a beautiful Summer day at Paradise Point Resort and every detail of this wedding was gorgeously planned by Leila of Brilliant Event Designs. I loved all the laughter and happiness that was obvious between the couple that day and could really see how much fun they have together! Here are a few of my favorite images….feel free to pin or leave a comment, we’d love to hear from you!

They’ll never be this tiny again. Every newborn is a once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece—just days old, yet already entirely themselves. These early moments are fleeting, raw, and unrepeatable. Capture them not just for now, but for the decades ahead when these sleepy yawns and curled-up fingers feel like a dream.

One minute, you`re walking them into kindergarten with a backpack that’s almost bigger than they are…
and somehow, you`re standing on the beach, watching them get ready to graduate high school.

It goes fast. Too fast.⁠
⁠
That’s why senior portraits matter.
Not for the cap and gown—but for who they are right now.
The smile that still looks a little like their five-year-old self. The confidence that came from years of growing up under your wing.⁠
⁠
Let’s capture it—before the next chapter begins.⁠

Because the truth is—your kids probably won’t sit still.⁠⁣
They’ll make silly faces, run in opposite directions, or collapse into giggles just when you were hoping for that “one perfect shot.”⁣
⁠⁣
And honestly? That’s exactly what I want to capture.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
The real smiles. The chaos. The snuggles. The way your toddler leans into you when they`re tired, or how your baby clutches your finger like it’s the most important thing in the world.⁣
⁠⁣
That’s the good stuff.⁣
⁠⁣
And those are the moments you’ll actually want to remember.⁠

There’s something so special about gathering the whole family—generations together, kids running barefoot through the sand, golden light pouring in.

This sunset session was filled with tiny, beautiful moments: a toddler twirling in her grandma’s arms, cousins holding hands, laughter between siblings who’ve grown up side by side.

It’s these in-between moments that mean the most. The ones that tell the real story of your family—just as you are, right now.

They say a day well lived makes every yesterday a dream—and I believe it. These really are the best days of our lives. Not because they’re perfect, but because they’re filled with love, laughter, and those tiny everyday moments that make life beautiful—if we pause long enough to notice.

Today reminded me how important it is to slow down. To take a breath, step away from the hustle, and make space for the in-between moments that are everything.♥️
