Fall Vacation On 30A - Santa Rosa Beach Photography
In our opinion, fall is the best time to take a beach vacation! The temperatures are cooling down, but it's still warm enough to get in the water. It's also less crowded at the beaches and in the restaurants, which means you don't have to wait to get a table at your favorite local seafood place. And of course, our photographers are still on the beach at sunrise and sunset!
Lauren and her family chose to take a fall vacation on 30A. Here are a few pictures from their Santa Rosa Beach photography session. To book your family photos in the 30A / Santa Rosa Beach area, please visit this page. If you're visiting a different beach, check our home page to see if we have photographers in the area you'll be visiting.

Sandy + Salty - Destin Family Photography
Thinking of ditching the collared shirts and sundresses, but not sure if you can fully commit?
Well, here's a little Destin family photography inspiration for you! We love when our clients switch things up and get a bit more playful with their wardrobes.
Tossing on your suits and loading up your beach toys makes for a much more relaxed and joyful (and lets not forget, memorable) family photography session!
We were very excited to hear how much our client loved her "sandy + salty" Destin family photography session. Here's the email she sent to us when she received her finished gallery:
"Holy goodness gracious!!!!!! I could not have been happier with the customer service from every single person I interacted with. From booking the session to immediate responses to every email answering all my questions and putting every tiny worry to rest, this was by far the easiest photo session I have ever booked.
And LAURA! LAURA! I mean my entire family was full on ANGRY about having to take family pictures during their beach vacation and I heard about how horrible I was including on the walk to the beach to have the pictures taken. I agreed they did not have to get ready, fix hair, wear matching outfits, nothing.....easy breezy beautiful! But from the moment we met Laura she really did make it all easy breezy and the pictures couldn't be more beautiful. We all had so much fun, the kids didn't even want it to end, I had to actually tell her she could leave anytime because they kept finding more stuff to do for her to take pictures of. She was full of ideas and fun. We all love the pictures and they are going to make the best Christmas presents.
Thank you so much for capturing the essence of us, the love and fun we have for each other and the beach."
Thank you so much for the kind words, Tori! If you're ready to book your Destin family photography session, please go to this page. If you're headed to a different beach town, check out our home page to see all of the locations where we work.

Furry Family Photos in Myrtle Beach
Ever wondered what could possibly make an already perfect setting for family photos on the beautiful beach in Myrtle Beach that much better? Yea, us too.. until our clients started bringing their fur babies!
It's a question we often get on whether you're allowed to bring your pet to your session, and we would love nothing more then to snap some photos of your furry family member!
It mixes things up and makes for such great memories! (Be sure to ask your photographer for their suggestions on dog friendly beach locations.)

St. Augustine Beach Photographer
Finally! We have been talking about moving into the St. Augustine market for several years and things finally lined up. Halle, our St. Augustine Beach photographer, found out about us though other photographers in the Florida Panhandle right before she moved to St. Augustine. How perfect is that?
We're so happy that the Holtzclaws were one of the first families to book with us in St. Augustine Beach! It looked like Halle was having a blast chasing the kids around and capturing them being their true selves. It's obvious that she's a perfect fit for our team and we love the photos that came from this session!
































Gulf Shores Sunrise Photography
There aren't many things that would get us to wake up before the dawn while on vacation. Gulf Shores sunrises are at the top of that (very short) list!
There's just something about getting to the beach before the hustle and bustle of the day. Before the white sands are painted over by beach towels and striped umbrellas. There aren't many times you get the beach all to yourself, and choosing a sunrise session is a way to experience just that.
The subtle pastel skies and golden Gulf Shores sun; it's hard to beat a background like that!

















What To Wear For a Small Family Beach Photography Session
Deciding what to wear for a small family beach photography session and getting coordinating outfits together doesn't have to be as stressful as you may think. We at Shore Shooters Beach Photography believe "the simpler, the better"! If your colors and prints are too bright and bold, it can be distracting to the eye. Keeping your looks more towards the neutral side and the prints on the smaller side, makes you the center of attention-- not your wardrobe!
Plus, it's best not to try and compete with these Gulf Shores beaches, right?!
The Leppert family went about this perfectly! Mom and dad sporting muted tones, while baby boy brought the whole look together with his subtly printed overalls.
We hope this helps you out and we can't wait to see what looks you put together for your family beach photography session!
