The Daniel Family | Beach Portraits| Topsail Beach, NC

The Daniel Family came all the way from Virginia and Texas to reunite in Topsail Beach, NC after a long time apart due to Covid-19 quarantine. What a sweet reunion it was! They have a special familial bond that feels very present in every photo.

My favorite part about this family, admittedly, might be that I know the blonde woman.  Lily and I went to high school together but we hadn't seen each other in over ten years! We weren't in the same grade but we competed in indoor track together. I remember her being universally likable, a go-getter and a beast in athletics, and she still is as she is finishing up medical school to be a doctor AND is raising a beautiful daughter with her husband. When she reached out over Instagram a few weeks ago, I was honored she thought of me to capture some of her family's beach memories.  

Without further ado, I'm proud to share with you a collection of photos of this gorgeous family who opted for a morning session by the sea!
