Fort De Soto Senior Pictures | St. Petersburg Senior Photographer

Addilyn’s Senior Session | Tampa Bay Senior Photographer

Alright, if you’ve been dreaming of senior pictures on the beach but also want a location that gives you a little variety – Addilyn’s session is going to be your favorite kind of inspiration.

Addilyn is a senior from Kansas, just outside of Topeka, who made the trip down to sunny St. Pete for a summer vacation – and decided to make it extra special by being part of my 50 from 50 campaign. She’s energetic, motivated, and runs cross country and track… basically, she brings her own sunshine.

Why Fort De Soto Was the Perfect Fit

When she mentioned wanting something beachy but with a bit of an urban vibe, I knew exactly where to go: Fort De Soto Park, one of my go-to spots for senior portraits in the Tampa Bay area.

This spot is such a hidden gem. Think: soft sandy beaches, grassy dunes, and the coolest concrete textures around the historic fort. It’s chef’s kiss for seniors who want options and a little adventure woven into their shoot.

Addilyn’s outfit combos looked amazing against the soft, natural tones of the beach. She brought all the energy, leaned into the moment, and the result? A gallery full of sunshine, wind-in-your-hair magic, and big, authentic smiles that felt so her.

Planning Your Own St. Pete Senior Pictures?

Whether you’re a Florida local or visiting for vacation, senior photos in St. Petersburg are the kind of experience you’ll always remember. I photograph seniors from all over the U.S. – yes, even Kansas! – and I love helping each one create something that feels personal, laid-back, and full of life.

If you’re looking for a Florida beach senior session with a relaxed, adventurous, and totally you vibe – I’d love to help you bring it to life.
