Gasparilla Inn is one of my favorite places to stay on the island. I may have incorporated their charm into my own home. Well, as much as I can. I love all the pops of color and old Florida vibe. One of our favorite places to visit is  lighthouse beach.  It’s beautiful for both sunrise and sunset. This gorgeous family got up extra early and met me at sunrise. We were the only people on the beach. It’s so peaceful and calm. When it’s peak storm season, sunrise sessions are always a safe bet. They never fail to disappoint.
