The whole family of 13 gathered for these North Topsail family vacation photos and it was a blast! Grandma, Grandpa, their 4 sons and their families all came out for a gorgeous sunset beach session. One of the sons had four daughters and the other had one little boy. This lead to a ton of playfulness on the beach!

Knowing that I was going to be entertaining 5 little ones, we tried something a little different to keep them interested. I brought a bag full of balloons to entertain the kids. Before doing some posed family shots at the beginning, I told the kids that I had a treat for them. Good news, bribery totally works! When we were finished up with some awesome family shots, I gave them the balloons and they loved it! They took the balloons and had a blast playing with them in the tide pools which gave me the opportunity to capture some fun candid shots of everyone laughing and enjoying a gorgeous evening on the beach. These are memories that I know this family will enjoy forever and I’m so blessed to have had the opportunity to capture that for them.
