Jennifer and her beautiful family have travelled a lot around the world. Her husband has lodged in quite a few Marriott Resorts. So, when they heard that the Ritz Carlton, a Marriott owned brand, was opening a new resort on the world-renowned Grace Bay Beach in the Turks and Caicos, they immediately booked their summer 2021 family vacation there. They were not only some of the resort’s first guests, they were also one of the first families to have they family photos taken on the property. And we were honored to be their professional Turks and Caicos photographers. The grounds of the very new resort are ideal for taking all kinds of photos, including family photography. I initially met them in the lobby which is quite expansive. There is a large bar area right in the lobby, and there is light everywhere. I started their session in the back side of the resort where there are long walkways. I asked them to walk up and down these paths and then asked them to do some work near the swimming pool where they are a lot of lounge chairs and some newly planted coconut palm trees. Afterwards, I took them to their favorite part of the resort – the dock! This is a very old dock that is beautiful in its unfinished and dilapidated state. I’m sure the Ritz will soon renovate the dock and it will lose some its charm. So, I decided to focus some of their favorite photos on the dock. We finished the session around the dock and finally in the water. They wanted to go knee deep and get the casual immersed family photo that has become so popular among our clients. Needless to say, the Graves family was thoroughly thrilled with the results and swore that this would not be the last time they would visit the Beautiful By Nature Turks and Caicos Islands!
