Capture Cherished Moments: #VisitLakeCharles Photo of the Month

Have you ever experienced a day or evening with friends or family that you wished could last forever? Those perfect moments we all crave to relive every day.

One of the greatest joys of social media is sharing those special times. My posts serve as personal time capsules—glimpses into nights out, celebrations, or vacations. I can revisit my Facebook or Instagram feeds, relive the memories, and even reshare them with loved ones.

That's exactly what Dayton Robinson did during a visit to the Lake Charles lakefront with friends.

Capture Cherished Moments: #VisitLakeCharles Photo of the Month

“I was enjoying time with friends at the boardwalk. We had green teas in hand and were playing Pokémon Go. It was a fantastic evening for us all, and I wanted to capture the essence of that pure joy in a photo to remember it by. I loved the vibrant horizon colors along the Lake Charles Boardwalk and am thrilled with the result.”;

Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment with us, Dayton.

A personal rule I live by is to stay fully present in the moment. That said, capturing photos ensures we can cherish and reminisce about those good times later.

    As Christmas lights give way to Mardi Gras beads and doubloons, the holiday hustle can leave you feeling stressed. Taking time to unwind with a peaceful walk is essential for recharging during this busy season. Shell Beach Drive is one of my top spots for morning walks in Lake Charles.

    I discovered this months Photo of the Month shortly after Hurricane Harvey struck Texas and parts of Southwest Louisiana. Stories of the heroic Cajun Navy and countless volunteers from across the state rushing to aid those affected inspired us all. For those unable to help in person, donations and prayers poured in. This image filled me with immense pride for Louisianas unwavering commitment to helping others, embodying our natural Southern hospitality and familial bonds. The pelican, Louisi
