Pregnancy Announcement Session at Fort DeSoto Dog Beach in St. Petersburg, Florida

I’m a dog-mom to two rescue pups — Lola, a pit-lab mix and Maverick, a belgian malinois. So of course when I have couples and families who want to include their fur babes, it’s a HELL YES from me!

One of my favorite dog beaches is the dog beach at Fort DeSoto. The parking here is typically easy, which is a welcomed perk to any location — especially when you’re bringing a few extra legs with you. But this particular spot is wonderful because the line of trees helps keep it shaded earlier in the evening when the sun goes down. And most people love the color of sunset, but let me introduce to MOONRISE ok? That’s where the cotton candy color sky is, the opposite direction of the sun. And these colors play really well with the natural color of the Gulf of Mexico and the whole muted beach tones situation.
