Weather at the beach is famously unpredictable. With no trees to provide shade or block the wind, you're at the mercy of the elements. The water can be crystal clear or teeming with seaweed, calm as a lake or wild with waves. The sky might be brilliantly sunny, hazy with intense fog, or painted with vibrant colors. We've learned to adapt to any situation—embracing the unpredictability is key. After all, you can't control Mother Nature, so the best approach is to go with the flow. Read below to find out how we handle sessions when excessive wind is present.

Worried your child won't sit, stare at the stranger and smile? You're probably right but that's ok, here's why. We have been doing this for 14 years in addition to our own life experience. We have 9 kids between the two of us, Caitie homeschools and Amy has taught special education and preschool in addition to being trained in behavior therapy. We understand toddlers do not smile on command. Let me put your mind at ease. Our classic session is our most requested. It is 45 minutes long, held just before sunset and includes up to 10 subjects. Any more than that and we would need the extra time a group session gives us. CLICK READ MORE TO LEARN ABOUT OUR SESSION PROCESSWe love photographing children! They are entertaining, honest and wear their emotions on their sleeves. We are well rehearsed in children, Caitie has four, Amy has five, and has taught at the elementary school level areas of preschool, special education and art for many years before turning to to photography full time. Our ultimate goal is for your child feel safe and to make sure they are having a good experience. Working together with you we will help your child feel comfortable and truly happy so we may capture your child's true self and personality. We want you and your child to smile when looking back at these images! We meet at Grayton Beach State Park and George immediately showed us he was a beach loving boy.
We love, love, love our gulf coast beaches all along 30a! But, that's not all our area boasts, and that is why we offer multiple portrait locations for our clients.
I think this was one of my favorite sessions to date, however, it almost feels unfair to make such a bold statement. Each year, Amy and I book such wonderful clients, many of who become friends. This group session was scheduled right after my emergency surgery last July and I almost didn't make it!
Caitie Beth nelsonA most fantastic, awesome, fun, and super humble 30a and Destin photographer If you've made it to our blog, we're willing to bet you love color, too! Check out this beautiful family and their fantastic fashion! Sticking with a good thing is exactly why so many people vacation in the 30a and Destin areas year after year. The beach. The people. The culture. The shopping. The food. The fishing. THE SUNSETS. That's just a few things on the top of the list, but what we have to offer goes on and on and on. There's something else we love; repeat clients. These folks have been shooting with Amy for years! When you find something good you just stick with it, right?
Caitie Beth Nelson30A and Destin Photographer We get a little relaxed as beach photographers from the end of December until the middle of March. While we may have some odd photography jobs here and there, the beach is chilly and windy, and the Destin and 30A vacationers usually aren't too interested in getting some portraits on the beach.
