A Grateful Trip to Miami Beach, Florida
Some trips you don’t see coming, and this one topped the list of reasons I was thankful that year. My work nominated and chose me for a free trip to Miami Beach, Florida, with a stay at the iconic, mid-century-glam Fontainebleau — and it was an absolute blast. That stretch of South Beach coastline is reason enough to visit on its own, camera or not.
A rare trip without the camera
Somewhat unusual for me, I hardly picked up my camera at all — I was too busy actually enjoying the trip instead of documenting every second of it. Sometimes that’s the whole point of a vacation, and I let myself have that.
One last walk down the beach
On my last day, I finally took a walk down the beach and let myself photograph it properly, chasing that tropical, sun-soaked Miami light I don’t get to shoot nearly often enough back home.
If Miami’s warm light and beach-town energy speak to you the way it does to me, I’d love to help capture your own trip or session there.
