Morgan Wallen’s “Sand In My Boots” Festival replacing Hangout Fest
What do you think about Morgan Wallen’s “Sand In My Boots” Festival replacing Hangout Fest?
If you’re on the fence about going to the festival, let’s talk about the pros and cons 👇🏼
First of all, I think we can all agree that Country music is definitely having its moment! We kind of think you might as well embrace it and let’s face it, this lineup is actually good. Plus, it's more than just Country! The lineup features plenty of "non-Country" artists.
If you’re not a Country music fan and you are thinking about sitting this one out, maybe we can help sway you.
Here’s what we would do if we were coming in town for this festival.
Gulf Shores is a small beach town on an island along the Gulf Coast of Alabama just a few minutes west of the Florida state line. Some people don’t even know about it! We think that’s part of it’s charm 😉

1. Start your morning at foam coffee! It’s hands down the best coffee on the island. The shop has the cutest vibes. They are usually located inside the festival as well but you don’t want to miss their super instagramable shop!
2. Grab a breakfast biscuit or donuts at Parlor Doughnuts. This place may be a chain but it’s worth the hype!
3. This may sound crazy, but try and squeeze in a Sunrise walk on the beach. It’s totally worth it!
Most importantly, if you are planning to attend the Sand In My Boots Festival in May, we hope you'll book a beach photo session with us while you're here, and we hope you enjoy your time on the beautiful beaches of Gulf Shores, Alabama!
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!












What To Wear? - Beach Photos In Gulf Shores
Do you have to get "dressed up" for beach photos? NO! This family chose to wear their swimsuits and we loved the way their pictures turned out!
There's really no dress code for beach pictures. What to wear is up to you! If you want to dress up, that's fine with us. But if you choose the more casual route, that's fine too!
