Where does the time go? The latter part of the year is usually the busiest time for photographers here in the Cayman Islands and 2020 was certainly no different. I did some wonderful and cute family photos for the Henry family back in November but only just got round to add them to the blog for the world to see.

The south side of Grand Cayman is particularly beautiful during sunrise, and although it is very tempting to snooze the morning alarm and wait vouch for sunset instead, I think sunrise is often more beautiful and usually more quiet.
The some children sunrise is actually ideal for their sometimes strange body clock, the last thing you need is a tired baby during a photoshoot! Make sure you go to bed early and enjoy the comfortable early morning sun and the desolate beach locations.

This the third time I have captured Molly & Rob, but the first time I saw there son. Last time I photographed them was a maternity session, and now they’re expecting their second. Every photoshoot I’ve done with them we’ve had some of Cayman’s most breathtaking sunsets which with the cliffs of Spotts Beach, and the waves crashing on the shore, makes some of my favourite family and maternity photos.

This beautiful session was full of laughter, kisses, love and natural moments.

I’ll admit, when it comes to family photography the smaller the group the easier it is to get intimate, and sharp photographs. So when I got the opportunity take Ellie & Davis’ Graduation portraits I was delighted. Not only did they look great, but they seemed to be having a lot of fun. Mainly focusing on capturing candid moments between the two, they had great chemistry and seemed to enjoy running in the sand. We also got some nice portraits of them both. A fantastic, young couple photography shoot on the beautiful stretch of Seven Mile Beach.

In Grand Cayman I shoot a lot of family sessions; a lot of people come here for vacation and want a professional photographer to get some great photos of them in paradise, but we also shoot a lot of local families. Especially if you have growing kids, getting some decent family photos every once in a while is a must! And getting the right location makes a big difference. We chose to get the Solomon’s photos at the beautiful Spotts Beach, away from the crowds of Seven Mile Beach. With a mix of small iron-shore cliffs, lush greenery, and warm sunset glows; this happy Cayman Islands family was perfect.

What’s better than a golden hour, family photography session? A golden hour, family photography session with maternity photos! I had captured this family before and they were fantastic to capture both times – but this second time I captured them in a beautiful field with long grass which caught the golden sun rays perfectly. I love taking photos at these kind of locations, makes a change from the beaches of Grand Cayman! It was also the perfect opportunity to get some dreamy maternity photos of a good looking couple.

At Picture This Studios we photograph a lot of families. Grand Cayman is beautiful after all, and it makes sense that the families who visit here want beautiful photos to treasure the memories. I don’t share all of my family photography sessions as there’s far too many to share! But this one I’m particularly pleased with! The sunshine, the smiles and everything about it was just awesome.

“Timing is so important when getting those infamous golden hour photographs. During my recent photography session with the Simms family at the Kimpton Seafire Resort, we caught the most vibrant sunset. After we caught the best of the warm sun rays glowing through the gardens of the Seafire Resort, we made our way down to the beach where the family had fun in the sand. These guys were really excited out their photography session; the eldest daughter actually recommended the wall of flowers as a backdrop so I can’t take all the credit!

Another wonderful family session in the beautiful Grand Cayman.”
