CURATED FAMILY MEMORIES STYLED BY NATURE

SARASOTA, FLORIDA

EXPLORE. UNWIND. RECONNECT.

A soulful, nature-rich experience designed for families who want to slow down, reconnect, and create something lasting together. Guided by a deep respect for the ocean and a passion for purposeful travel, each safari blends gentle exploration, mindful luxury, and heirloom-quality portraiture. From your children’s laughter on the shoreline to your golden hour embrace, every moment is captured with intention, leaving you with artful keepsakes and a memory that feels as beautiful as it looks.

SIGNATURE SAFARI

Your Seaside Safari begins with a guided coastal walk tailored for curious young explorers and their families. Along the shore, your naturalist guide will introduce you to the natural wonders of the Sarasota coastline.

As your family takes in the natural beauty around you, your photographer will capture the adventure as it unfolds. This candid, photojournalistic style allows your experience to be both lived and remembered without interruption.

After your coastal walk, you’ll receive a beautifully curated digital gallery of images: a visual story of your time together in nature, preserved with care and connection.
