Photographing a boho family session with Colleen and Peeks and their gorgeous family in a cottage by the sea in the Cayman Islands was a total joy and I was almost giddy looking at my preview screen!

Photography and Cinematography

Combining photography and film is an incredible and unique way of capturing the true essence of your family. Together with Jason Banawa and Noah Hollins of Wild Love Films and Hollins Films we created…..

The story of “The Martin Family”!

Ideas…

When Colleen called me to capture her amazing family, I think I messaged her for a whole hour that night sending ideas and going back and forth with excitement. She told me their location was a cottage by the sea, and her beautiful little girls who run wild and free… and one of the worlds chubbiest, but cutest baby boy…. and peeks… well who doesn’t adore peeks!

What…

What was important to these guys for their session…. keeping things. ‘aux natural!’ Colleen wanted to capture them all just playing inside and on the beach, running around in little dresses with their hair in their faces, picking up shells and running from hermit crabs.

Peeks grew up in the Cayman Islands and captured his beautiful bride from Canada, I got to photograph their wedding a few years ago and even had the opportunity to see little Elijah in the hospital after he was born when his sisters came to see him.

Unicorns and rainbows…

What best describes this family…. (In their own words..) “Unicorns and rainbows and Guinness”, I mean what else does anyone need!

I love the colours that Colleen chose for the girls to run free on the beach and the yellow contrasted so good with the ocean. The pink dresses were. also super cute and added a perfect change. The pink swimsuits with the sunglasses…. well I mean… perfect!
