Go enjoy the beach together.
One hour at sunset. I’ll pose everyone three or four times, and the rest of the time, we play.
Your family doesn’t need to perform for the camera.
You’re on vacation, and the kids are allowed to act like it. Nobody has to spend sunset pretending they’re having fun.
The kids don’t have to hold still. I’ll keep up.

“He wades into the surf like a madman with a lens, chasing that perfect sliver of light as if it owes him money.”Jason Park · Google review
What an hour at sunset looks like.
Three or four portraits, and a lot of running around between them. The running around is usually what your kids remember.
Portraits along the way.
Every so often I’ll pull everyone together while attention is fresh, then let them go again before it turns into work.
Let the kids move.
Splashing and being ridiculous aren’t interruptions. They’re a big part of the photographs, and I’m usually right in the middle of it.
Keep the evening yours.
It’s still your vacation. The session should feel like part of it, not something you spent all afternoon getting ready for.
Book now, choose your photos later.
Four steps, and only the first one happens before your trip.
Send me your dates, where you’re staying, and who’s coming. The $250 session fee holds your sunset.
We’ll stop for three or four portraits, and capture all of the fun in between.
Your full gallery of 50+ images is ready to view before you pick a single file.
Five files, fifteen, or the full gallery. You decide with the photos in front of you.
$250 holds your date.
All the prices are right here, so nothing at the end is a surprise.
“It will be worth every penny!”
Totals include the $250 session fee.
The whole hour, not just the portraits.
Vacation is often the family reunion.
Grandparents, adult siblings, cousins and little kids may not all be in the same place again for a long time. We’ll get the full-group portrait without making the whole hour feel like roll call.
When you check your dates, include everyone who will be photographed so I can plan the session around your actual group.
If everyone’s finally together, that photo is worth getting right.
“Because our family ranges in age from newborns to my 91 year old father-in-law, pictures were not a want; they were a need.”
Destin and 30A are different beach experiences.
Where we shoot depends on where you’re staying and how far everyone wants to drive. The guides below walk through the options.
“…he traveled to our rental and arrived early to check out the beach and scout out the perfect location for our photoshoot.”
Questions parents actually ask.
“He even managed to take breathtaking images of my very cranky 2-year old.”
What if my kids won’t cooperate?
They don’t have to. I’ll give direction when it helps and let them run when that works better. I’m after photos that look like your family, not an hour of perfect behavior.
Will we still get a traditional family portrait?
Yes, usually three or four, spread through the hour. We just don’t spend the whole session making different versions of the same pose.
How does the $250 reservation work?
It holds your date and covers the session, editing and your gallery. Digital files are bought separately, after you’ve seen everything.
Do I have to pick a package before the session?
No. After viewing the gallery, you can choose five digital files for $350, fifteen for $550, or the full gallery for $750.
Can we include grandparents or extended family?
Yes. Tell me who’s coming when you check your dates, and I’ll plan for the full group plus the smaller groups inside it.
Where do you photograph sunset sessions?
All over Destin, Miramar Beach, Sandestin, South Walton and 30A. We’ll pick a spot near where you’re staying that works for everyone, including anyone who can’t manage a long walk to the sand.
Tell me when you’ll be here.
