Friendly, Professional, and Fun Photographers In Gulf Shores, AL
Our approach to beach photography is pretty simple. Our Fort Morgan / Gulf Shores photographers want to document your family time together as it’s happening.
Although we have fun during our sessions, we take our responsibility very seriously. We realize that you may not get the entire family together again for years. Our job is to capture the joy of your family gathering in photographs that will last forever!
Our Gulf Shores photographers look forward to meeting you!
Gulf Shores Photographers
Our Gulf Shores photography sessions are “all-inclusive”. That means the price you see below is all you are required to pay. We don’t believe in hidden charges, fine print, or complicated packages! You’ll pay $150 when you book your appointment, then we’ll charge the remaining balance when your pictures are ready for viewing and downloading.
The cost includes your time with the photographer during the “golden hour” at sunrise or sunset plus an UNLIMITED number of high resolution digital images (not just 10 or 15 like many other photographers). The majority of our clients receive over 100 pictures (sometimes lots more!). Your pictures will be available for viewing and downloading approximately 2 days after your session. Your online gallery will be available for a year. During that year, you can download them as many times as you need. You can also share your gallery with family and friends so they can also download your beach portraits.
GULF SHORES PHOTOGRAPHY PRICING:
- $425 + sales tax – Up to 10 people

For groups of more than 20 people, we highly recommend scheduling 2 photographers in order to make sure each individual family gets what they want. Please email or call us for details.
Have questions before you book? Our Client Happiness Team is here to help! Send them an email or call 866-856-2435. You can also find the answers to commonly asked questions on our FAQ page.
Here's How It Works...
1. Choose Date & Time
Choose the date and time that works best for you through our online scheduling system and pay the $150 retainer. After your appointment is booked, you'll receive an email confirming the time and date of your appointment. Please review the information in this email to make sure everything is accurate.
2. Connect With Photographer
Your photographer will call or text you approximately 24 hours before your session to work out location details and answer any questions you may have. If you have questions prior to then, feel free to get in touch with our Client Happiness Team by calling 866-856-2435 and they'll be happy to help!
3. Let's Go To The Beach!
Meet your Gulf Shores photographer at the beach for your sunrise or sunset beach portraits! The photographer will make sure you get as many shots as possible, but if you have any special requests or "must have" shots, please tell the photographer at the beginning of the session. This is the fun part!
4. Receive Your Pictures
Approximately 2 business days after your session, you'll receive an email with a link to your pictures. From here, you'll be able to download all of your pictures for printing or sharing on social media. This email also contains a guest link to share with family and friends. Your balance due will also be charged at this time.
Your gallery will remain online for a year. During that year, you and your family and friends can download them as many times as needed. We recommend saving your downloaded photos to a secure source (external hard drive, flash drive, CD, etc) as soon as possible. Or we can provide you with a flash drive containing all of your photos for an additional $20.
Although you are welcome to have your pictures printed anywhere you choose, we offer prints at great prices through our professional photo lab. We also offer a variety of photo products such as canvas gallery wraps, albums, and cards. You will be able to order these through your online gallery.

What's The Difference Between Shore Shooters And Other Gulf Shores Photographers?
No Limits
Although many of our competitors will spend 30 to 45 minutes with you, they only give you 10 to 20 final images. We don’t think that’s fair! A good photographer will take a lot more than than 20 good pictures in that time frame. So why limit it to 10 or 20? We don’t limit the number of pictures you’ll receive in your proof gallery. In addition to posed shots, we also like to capture candid, fun moments. We know you want to see those shots, so they’ll be included in your gallery. The more fun you have during your Gulf Shores photography session, the more shots you’ll get in your proof gallery! And you’ll receive the high resolution digital versions of all of them!
View At Your Convenience
You have places to go and things to do while you’re on vacation. The last thing you want to do is spend part of your Gulf Shores beach vacation sitting in a photographer’s office or listening to a “sales pitch” from someone trying to sell you an expensive package. With our online proofing system, you can view your proofs and download your pictures whenever it’s convenient for you. If you have questions, just call or email us. So get out and enjoy the rest of your Gulf Shores vacation!
Quick Turnaround
Your online gallery will be available approximately 2 business days after your session. You do not have to wait for a CD or flash drive to arrive in the mail. You’ll be able to download your beach pictures as soon as the gallery is available. Then you can forward the gallery notification email to family members so they can also view and download them. No more passing a CD around between family members! If you choose to order prints from us, we’ll process the order and have your prints shipped in a few days, so they’ll arrive at your door about a week after placing the order. If you need them even faster, we offer expedited shipping for an additional fee. (Note: Specialty items such as canvas gallery wraps, books, and wood prints take slightly longer for processing)
Experienced Photographers
All of our Gulf Shores photographers have years of experience working with families. When we’re not on the beach with a client, we’re working together to learn from the other members of our team to make every photographer a BETTER photographer. We are a network of creatives who love to share ideas and learn from each other.
BEACH PHOTOGRAPHY IS OUR SPECIALTY
The beach is our back yard, so we’re passionate about beach photography and understand the (sometimes tricky) lighting techniques of shooting on the beach. We’re always working with our team to provide on-going training to make sure they are always the best photographers on the beach!
Never A Travel Fee
If you’d prefer to have your Gulf Shores photographer come to your location, we don’t charge a travel fee.
Customer Service
We have a dedicated, full-time “Client Happiness Team”. They are OBSESSED with making sure every Shore Shooters Beach Photography client is happy!
Call For Pricing?
Nope, not here! If a photographer tells you that you have to call them to find out how much they’ll charge, it’s probably more than you want to pay! All of our pricing options are spelled out right here on our website. We don’t believe in “hidden charges”or high-pressure sales pitches!
Our Gulf Shores photographers are approved to shoot at all Gulf State Park beaches.
