Tallahassee Family Photographer
Taylor Bonnell, Tallahassee Family Photographer
It's me, ya girl.
I’m Taylor, and I'm a Tallahassee, Panhandle, + South Georgia family photographer specializing in natural outdoor family photography.
Family sessions are relaxed and connection-focused, creating space for real moments, movement, and genuine emotion. Whether we're documenting a growing family, marriage, birth, or simply preserving this season together, your session is designed to feel easy and meaningful.
Photography in Tallahassee, Panhandle, & South Georgia
Tallahassee and surrounding areas offer beautiful outdoor locations for family photography, from parks covered in live oaks and Spanish moss, to natural springs, to peaceful beaches with soft natural light. I help families choose locations that feel comfortable and scenic, allowing kids to explore and parents to relax into the experience.
Sessions can take place in:
Tallahassee, Florida • 30A • Panama City Beach • Destin • Apalachicola • St. George Island • Thomasville • Cairo • Bainbridge • South Georgia
Why Tallahassee?
For one thing, this is my hometown. No matter where I've lived, this is always home. It is incredibly special to me and its beauty cannot be recreated elsewhere. Moving back here to raise our family after being away for 10 years (2 in Orlando, 8 in WNC) means the world to be able to raise them with a similar upbringing I had.
One of my favorite things about Tallahassee is how much variety it offers. We have beautiful oak-canopied roads, peaceful parks, springs, gardens, lakes, and golden sunsets that make the perfect backdrop for natural, relaxed photography.
Some of my favorite places include:
- Cascades Park
- Alfred B. Maclay Gardens
- Dorothy B. Oven Park
- Lake Ella
- Downtown Tallahassee
- JR Alford Greenway
- Lake Iamonia
- Wakulla Springs
What type of sessions are offered?
Family, maternity, couples, engagement, seniors, branding, small weddings, elopements, and birth!
What's my style?
My sessions are relaxed and fun. I won't ask your kids to stand perfectly still for an hour—instead, we'll play, laugh, explore, and let real moments unfold naturally. My goal is to capture genuine connections rather than stiff poses. I focus on natural lighting, soft colors, bright and airy moments that freeze the moment in time forever.
FAQs
What to Expect From Your Session
Family sessions are designed to feel natural and low-pressure. Rather than stiff posing, I guide families with gentle prompts that encourage connection, play, and interaction. This approach allows genuine moments to unfold while still ensuring you walk away with beautifully composed images and still maintaining the fun.
Sessions are ideal for families with young children, older kids, or multi-generational groups, maternity, couples, & elopements looking for an outdoor, laid-back experience.
What to Wear for Family Photos
Save the neons for your next 80s-themed party! Neutral tones, soft textures, gentle patterns, simple coordination, and comfortable clothing photograph beautifully in any outdoor settings and provide a timeless look you can enjoy for years to come.
Once booked, I will provide an electronic guide to help families coordinate outfits without matching exactly, ensuring your images feel timeless and cohesive while still reflecting your personal style.
