We have spring already. I cannot believed it! It is spring and more family sessions on the beach. It is getting so busy in Destin and also on the beaches of scenic 30a. I love to see all the families coming together to have best family time. They make sure to spend every occasion on the beach. Recently it is so hard to find any parking spot. It must be great for our area economy.
I wish all my family and friends Happy Easter. He has risen! God bless you!

Andrea and her family came to the beach in Rosemary Beach. The weather was so beautiful and warm. Children really enjoy playing on the beach. I think I captured some fun and sweet spirt of this family. It was so nice to meet you. I hope you will be back soon.There are some pictures from our session on the beach with this awesome family:)

As always your photography is beautiful! The Valentine pictures of the children are wonderful and you know just how to pose them with the appropriate lighting – Great work and a beautiful talent! Thank you for sharing your world with us!
Thank you, Betsy!
Bright Christmas stars shine on high,
Golden stars in the wint’ry sky;
Christmas candles in windows bright
Send s greeting into the night;
While in our hearts the Christmas flame,
Glows with a love like his who came,
The infant Christ of lowly birth,
To bring good will and peace to earth.
We wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !
Ilona, Johnnie, Shirlynn and Jalen
