Just look at that smile. You can't help but to smile along with him! 
We love photographing children, they are entertaining, honest and wear their emotions on their sleeves. We are well rehearsed in children,  Caitie has four,  I have five and I have taught art in elementary school, preschool and special education for many years before I turned 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.

Let's look at it from your toddler's perspective for a minute. S/He is more than likely visiting the beach for the first time. This is a whole other strange and new environment for them, all senses are on high alert and emotions are ramping up for all the fight/flight. This can be seen in many forms depending on the child. They can be shy, scared, nervous, anxious, or happy until they figure out what is going on in this new place. They will look to you to guide them, if you appear upset or stressed they will think 'uh-oh, mom is nervous, I should be too".  Let's look at a few ways to help ease them into the situation so your session goes as smoothly as possible.

What does it mean to be a Boutique Photographer?

It means we are with you every step of the way from start to finish. 
It means we listen to our clients and do our very best to capture their story.  
We 
spend hours fully editing each image to create artful prints worth hanging on your walls. This includes removing tourist from the background of each image and cleaning up the skin while retaining natural tone.  
Our clients value artwork and intend do display their images. It is our job to deliver display worthy images.

Maybe it is better described by what we are not. We are not shoot and burn photographers. *Not that there's anything wrong with that, we applaud all entrepreneurs. We really enjoy the creation process and cannot deliver until the image is up to the standard of quality we hold ourselves to. We have each been in photography business for over 10 years, with Amy beginning much earlier with drawing portraits and obtaining her Bachelors of Fine Arts Degree. With all this knowledge and experience it is hard to hold back. 

This does mean we take a little longer returning proofs and we are more of an investment than a shoot & burn photographer. We have to be in order to deliver the quality of products and of commitment to each client, and still pay our bills. This is not a hobby for us. We have taken out of state workshops, college courses, continuous online workshops, we are constantly learning new ways to deliver luxury portraiture to you.

“A mini or a full session — which is best for us?” This is one of the most frequently asked questions that Amy and I receive in our inquiries from folks vacationing in the Destin and 30A areas.  It's a good question with a simple answer.  We just need to take a few things into consideration!
