Oh fun! I don't have many pictures of my early island, but here's the few I have:
When I just started my island, it was empty green grassland sprinkled with trees and planted bunches of flowers basically everywhere, just trying to breed hybrids. This screenshot also shows my map in the lower right corner. My house is still in much the same spot, but the museum, campsite and nook have been moved since. You can see where my starter villagers moved in, as these homes aren't in a straight line yet. The idea for a beach town came later. The little bridge behind the resident services was my first, and it's still there, as is the incline you can see me building near the back. As soon as I got access to the second level cliff I started using it as an orchard, which is still there.
Below is my current island map, where you can see some things have shifted around. But I did very little terraforming, because my island was mostly already perfect. I added two small ponds and a bit of solid ground gehind my home, and that's basically it. My house right now isn't very exciting, I just took down all the Halloween decorations and the creepy graveyard vibe around it. I have picked other, more fall-like colors for it now too. But I did get to put down my first Mush Parasol today, in the spot where my white pumpkin patches used to be.
