family photos without the stress of leaving your beach house
As someone born and raised right here on the Crystal Coast, I know this stretch of coast. From the tides and weather patterns to the best light, hidden beach paths, and even where to grab dinner after your session, you’ll have a local on your side.
We’re proud to serve vacationing families in Emerald Isle, Cedar Point, and Swansboro with a level of care that’s hard to find in a seasonal destination. While pop-up photographers come and go, our licensed, full-time studio is trusted, professional, and here when it matters.
If you’re looking for a dependable, guided experience with portraits meant to last, you’re in the right place.
What to Expect
This isn't a rushed shoot in the middle of a crowded beach. It’s fun, intentional and planned thoughtfully for your convenience.
✔️ I come to your beach house.
No loading up the car or stressing over parking. I meet you where you're staying so everything feels easy.
✔️ We plan around the light, tides, and your family’s rhythm.
You’ll get location and timing guidance based on your address and our sun tracker for the best lighting and weather conditions. We plan for flexibility to our families so that we never miss a session due to wind, rain, or other weather conditions.
✔️ Proofs sent to you in 48 hours
You’ll get a private, curated gallery delivered to your inbox within 24 hours if your session occurs on a Monday-Wednesday evening. If you are attempting to book Thursday-Saturday, you will get your proofs the following Monday. You can choose what you love alongside your family while still on vacation or we can setup a zoom call to walk you through your gallery once you get back home if you'd like a more guided experience.
✔️ Heirloom artwork is available (but not required).
Some families just want a handful of favorite images. Others want a framed gallery wall or an album to remember the trip. You’ll get options either way, and help if you need it.
This Might Be for You If:
- You’ve always said “we need to get a real family photo,” but never have
- You’re celebrating something like a new baby, a birthday, or just making it through the year
- You are planning to propose and want to hire a professional who can guide you through how to document it with photos as well
- You want photos that actually feel like your family, not someone else’s idea of one
- You're not looking for a "mini session"
