I recently got back from an incredible two weeks down in Florida’s beautiful panhandle. Honestly it was such a great trip, we’re already planning our next one (and I can’t wait!).

For two weeks, I spent time with family and friends. We swam in the Gulf, took sunset walks on the beach, explored new towns, and made many amazing memories. And while I (mostly) didn’t work while I was down there, I did get to capture a couple gorgeous family sessions on the beach.

Brian & Ana are good friends of my husband and mine. Over the last eight or so years, Matt and I have loved getting to know them through small group, game nights, and dinner dates. And now, we have the privilege of watching our kids become good friends (that is such a sweet thing to see).

So not only was it a gift to be able to spend a week in 30A together, but it was also a true honor to be able to document this special family in a new favorite place.

VISIT 30A

I genuinely can’t say enough wonderful things about 30A. Beautiful and family friendly, it really was the perfect destination for our two young families.

For our trip, we stayed in the little town of Santa Rosa Beach, just east of Seaside. We booked an Airbnb hosted by Southern Holiday Homes in the NatureWalk community, and it really was everything we could have wanted. Big gorgeous house, three pools, complimentary bikes and golf cart, and all just one mile from the beach.

If you’re looking for a great family vacation spot, I highly recommend visiting Florida’s panhandle (specifically the 30A area).
