This is not a Hallmark movie but was made just like one, even with what my wife and I call the "Hallmark Kiss" near the very end of the movie. The resort island scenes are shot on Santa Catalina Island just off the coast near Los Angeles.
She is a up-and-coming photographer that gets unfortunate news as the story begins. They can't afford to keep her on staff. At the same time she gets interested in the annual "destination" photo contest and decides to try to win it. She goes back to the resort island that she used to visit with her family when she was much younger.
As fate (and script) would have it the only hotel has a broken water pipe problem so they set her up in a cabin about one mile away at the local Lemon farm. There she encounters the dad, his son, and the son's young daughter. They all seem to bond easily, but the trouble is in the form of financial difficulties, many past-due bills and a checking account about exhausted.
The photographer right away begins to post photos on her popular website, people all over get interested, the publicity might just be what the Lemon Farm needs to survive and thrive. Plus dad starts to sell his paintings and the young girl her special formula lemonade.
Very nice family type of movie, my wife and I enjoyed it on Amazon streaming movies.
