The One Photo Everyone Forgets to Take on Vacation—Until It’s Too Late
If you’ve ever planned a big family vacation to the Outer Banks, you know the schedule fills up fast—beach days, dinners out, wild horse tours, chasing the sunset. But in all the excitement, there’s one photo families often forget to take… until it’s too late:
A portrait of the generations.
Grandparents with grandkids. Adult siblings with their parents. Cousins together in one frame.
These are the images that mean the most years after the trip is over—but they’re the ones most often missed in the rush of a busy week.
I’m Bruce Lorenz, a Certified Master Photographer with over 40 years of experience photographing families across the Outer Banks. I specialize in creating timeless, heartfelt portraits for families large and small—from just a couple to groups of 50+. My goal is to help you slow down for a moment and capture something truly meaningful: the people you love, together in one frame.
As one of the most trusted Corolla photographers, I can tell you from experience—these are the images that become treasured keepsakes. They’re the ones framed above the mantle or displayed proudly in hallways. They’re also the ones people regret not taking the most.
And when you look at the websites of many OBX photographers, you might see a few shots of kids running through the surf—but not many of those deeper, generational portraits. That’s the difference I offer.
Why This One Matters Most
Portraits of grandparents with grandchildren, or all the siblings together again on the beach—these are not just pretty pictures. They’re visual proof of legacy. A reminder of connection. A gift to the future.
If you’ve been searching for a family photographer in Corolla NC or looking through lists of Duck NC photographers, ask yourself: will they help me capture this moment—beautifully and intentionally?
That’s what I do, session after session.
So while you’re planning beach chairs, crab dinners, and golf cart rides… don’t forget the photo that might matter most in the years to come.
