Full Time Family Photographer serving Orange Beach, Gulf Shores, Perdido Key, Fort Morgan and Dauphin Island

I am committed to capturing and preserving the meaningful family moments you share during your stay in Orange Beach and other Gulf Coast areas. I understand the value of time and aim to provide you with an exceptional family portrait experience despite our limited time together. With years of experience in family beach photography, I am equipped to handle various conditions. While I hope for sunny days, I am adaptable and can work effectively regardless of the beach's conditions. By utilizing studio lights, I am not solely reliant on natural light, allowing us to shoot comfortably beyond sunset to avoid the harsh summer sun. This approach ensures that we capture the intricate details and beauty of the Gulf Coast beaches. Whether it's a small family or a large reunion, I am dedicated to helping you preserve the precious memories of your family beach vacation. I understand that family gatherings are often fleeting, and there may not be a second chance for a photoshoot. Therefore, I am committed to being flexible and adept at adapting to the conditions presented during our session.

In case of bad weather, I usually have a day during the week that we can reschedule to accommodate unforeseen conditions. However, there are instances when rescheduling is not a viable option, and the session must take place on that particular day, if possible. During such occurrences, we closely monitor the hourly weather reports, and I am willing to make exceptions by scheduling the shoot earlier than the usual sunset hour. If the main priority is capturing precious moments, especially when the family is gathered together for a limited time, we are committed to making it happen. Most condos offer a lobby that can be utilized, and beach houses usually provide adequate cover. It's uncommon for us to encounter a full day of rain. In the unlikely event that a weather-related circumstance forces the cancellation of the session, the deposit will be promptly refunded.

With my extensive experience capturing precious moments of young children, I have learned that refraining from bribing them with treats or promises yields the best results. Instead, I prioritize engaging the toddlers and small children at the beginning of the session. I incorporate breaks for children to play, often at the beach, allowing me to capture genuine family interactions. It's not uncommon for even the most well-behaved children to experience a meltdown during the session, making candid portraits a surprising standout from the entire session.
