I love being a seaside photographer and especially love meeting families that have been coming to Seaside, Florida for decades. Gerrie’s family has been coming for nearly twenty years. See their seaside family photos here!

I love this time of the year for a few reasons. 1 – It is my down time! I took the month of February off to soak in every minute with our girl before the craziness begins come March. 2 – There are days that are warm enough to know that Spring/warmer weather is almost […]

The Olingy family met up in Rosemary Beach, Florida from all over… to celebrate this special time in their lives and I had the immense honor of photographing them while they were here! They immediately reminded me of when we would vacation with my grandparents and whole family down to the beach. These times are […]

The Bell family is one those families that you wish lived right next door to you so that you could be best friends with them forever and ever. Ha! I met them for the first time last year in Watercolor, Florida! Our session was rained on but with their encouragement, we took the session indoors […]

Things to do in Fort Walton Beach, Destin and 30A on the weekend!

Where to even start with these two and their Rosemary Beach, Florida engagement portraits? Let’s start with how stinking cute they are together!

They were the perfect combination of color, sunshine and beautifully put together! If anything, these guys made me really reconsider my plans for our family. (Which we obviously found out earlier this […]

I haven’t always believed in the pregnancy glow, and even now being pregnant myself, I definitely don’t feel the glow (Ha!) but she definitely had it!  While the Anderson family was spending time together in WaterColor, Florida, I had the immense honor of photographing their growing family! They were the […]

I absolutely love this family session because it is my sister and her gorgeous family!! They love the coastal dunes and overgrown trails in 30A, so it was a perfect combination!  I truly think one of the coolest perks of being a photographer is getting to create these portraits of my own family. It is […]

Under the lights, they danced the night away. T + C’s Triple Crown House wedding in Santa Rosa Beach was magical. The love they have for each other is full of so much grace and gentleness. I loved watching them together!  Planning – Beachside Ceremonies + Events
