Cypress Point Park Photographer // The Pallardys

Golden hour at Cypress Point Park was pure magic for the Pallardy family’s photo session. With its blend of breezy open fields and a quiet beach, this little hidden gem in Tampa always delivers which is why I love being a Cypress Point Park photographer. Lauren, her husband, and their sweet toddler showed up in the most perfect casual boho outfits — think soft earth tones, flowy textures, and denim were the perfect mix for this vibe. It couldn’t have suited the setting more perfectly. We kicked things off barefoot in the grassy fields, where the light filtered through the trees and the tall grass danced in the breeze. Their toddler was full of giggles, running between her parents and clutching onto little wildflowers. There’s something about starting in the grass that brings out the most natural moments — twirls, cuddles, and laughter all happened effortlessly. As the sun dipped lower, we made our way down the sandy path to the water’s edge. Still barefoot, the family walked hand-in-hand along the shoreline, leaving soft footprints in the sand behind them. It was one of those sessions that felt like a little slice of calm in the middle of a busy world — playful, present, and full of connection. The Pallardys’ easygoing style and warm energy made the entire shoot a joy, and Cypress Point Park gave us the perfect canvas to tell their story. If you’re dreaming of a family session that blends nature, coastal vibes, and barefoot simplicity, this spot might be just what you’re looking for. During the fall the iconic grassy fields which this park is known for, are technically in “bloom” and are the most beautiful shade of purple. No matter what you’re looking for you can find it here. So can I be your Cypress Point Park photographer?
