A mom of two beautiful girls, God loving, Starbucks drinking, kid & people loving, chit chat jabbering, ballerina dancer, wedding and photography lover. I was born and raised here on the gorgeous Emerald Coast. A true local! I began MEP in 2006 and over the years it has just continued to grow. Some of my best friends began as clients!

Be sure to include what kind of photography session or wedding photography you are looking for. Also, if a family beach session, how many people will be included, where you are staying, & when. Any other info that will help get your session booked. I look forward to being your photographer.

Locations

MY favorite places to photograph
 from the beaches of 30a to Destin, FL

The best session locations are often meaningful to our individual families; however, we’re also happy to make recommendations. From your vacation rental, to some of our favorite parks/beaches, the options for session locations are endless! 

Watercolor, FL photographer. My favorite spot to photograph families. For evening sessions we start in the gorgeous park. We shoot there for 20 minutes & then head out to the beach for the rest of the session. Sunsets, we meet at the Public access. The beaches here have no condos in the background & provide the most gorgeous background. Click on the photo above to see some of our favorite spots around Watercolor and more photos from Watercolor Florida. 


Destin photographer. Destin is a gorgeous location situated on the Gulf of Mexico. I actually call Destin FL home. As one of Destin Florida photographers, I have a few locations that I like to shoot Destin Florida photos at. Click on the photo above to see some of our favorite spots around Destin photography and Okaloosa Island. Contact us today and book your beach pictures Destin fl. 

Seagrove Beach photographer. Seagrove Beach, FL is located along 30A. Between Seaside and Alys Beach, close to Blue Mountain Beach, and Rosemary Beach. A much more quiet area than most but also close to some pretty amazing places. Click on the photo above to see some of our favorite spots around Seagrove Beach. Sure to be a great trip for your family.

WaterSound photographer. WaterSound, FL is one of the most gorgeous communities I've ever seen. A secluded retreat. WaterSound is the ideal getaway showcasing breathtaking scenery and sugar-white sand all within a private community. WaterSound’s classic all-American style mixes the colors and shapes of an Eastern seaboard town with the beauty of South Walton’s beaches. 

Miramar Beach photographer. Miramar Beach is located between SanDestin & Destin. This location is perfect for windy days as we can hide behind the dune there & still have no condos in the background. It also is right next to our favorite restaurant in town, Captain Dave's on the Gulf. The perfect way to grab dinner after our session. Click on the photo above to see some of our favorite spots around Miramar Beach and more photos from this location.

Rosemary Beach photographer| Inlet Beach photographer. These are the most gorgeous backdrops on 30a. Located at the end of Hwy 30A. The most adorable community right next to Inlet Beach. This is a must visit if you come to this area. The buildings and shops, they are just breathtaking.  Click on the photo above to see some of our favorite spots around Rosemary Beach.


The above locations are all beautiful but we also love exploring meaningful locations with our families!

You and your loved ones are on the beach. Everyone is happy. The sun feels warm on your skin. You're surrounded by the sound of laughter mixed with crashing waves.

The light is golden, the air is salty, and you're watching your children play together on our gorgeous white-sandy beach. Whether it is The Henderson Resort in Destin or The Pearl Hotel in Rosemary Beach.

You almost forget you're having your photos taken, because you're too busy creating core memories with your family. You look beautiful, and feel truly amazing... 

Because, with me, your session will be effortless.

Envision This:

Celebrating 18 years of Destin family photography. 18 years ago, after adopting my daughter, God placed this amazing business in my lap. I've photographed over 2,000 families and 400 weddings. I still love being one of Destin's best photographers, on the world's most gorgeous beaches.
