Photography on Lido Key

Lido Key offers a quieter alternative to Siesta Key with wide, uncrowded beaches — ideal for families and couples who want a relaxed session without fighting for space. It's also a short walk from St. Armands Circle, so we can pair a beach session with shots around the shops and fountains if you'd like variety.

I'm based in the Sarasota area and shoot on Lido Key year-round, working around tides and sunset times for the best light.

Planning Your Session

Best Time of Day

Golden hour before sunset gives the softest light. Lido's west-facing beach makes for excellent sunset silhouettes.

Where We'll Shoot

Lido Beach, North Lido Beach for a quieter feel, or St. Armands Circle for a mixed beach-and-town session.

Who This Is For

Families wanting space to spread out, couples and engagements, and anyone who prefers a less crowded backdrop than Siesta Key.

What to Wear

I'll send a style guide once you book — neutral tones and light fabrics photograph best against the sand and water.
