Family
Children grow up and families change - invest in THIS MOMENT and create beautiful photographs that will become heirlooms as time passes.
We believe that YOU should be in control of how that investment is spent. All of our experiences are booked by paying a session fee, which includes a specific number of digital images. You will have the opportunity to view your proofs and narrow them down to your absolute favorites. Please view the details on our "Investment" page, or contact us for assistance.
Our studio is centrally-located on the Gulf Coast, in Pensacola, Florida. Our home range extends from Rosemary Beach, Florida to Mobile, Alabama. We regularly work in Destin, Watercolor, Seaside, Santa Rosa Beach, 30-A, Navarre Beach, Seagrove, Fort Morgan, Pensacola Beach, Perdido Key, Fort Walton, Orange Beach, Gulf Shores, and Fairhope.
If you would like to work with a specific photographer, please let us know when you first inquire. Please be aware that requesting a specific Pensacola family photographer may limit the availability we are able to offer you. Our entire team is trained to approach your session in the same way, so the quality of your images should not vary based upon your photographer assignment.
Yes, depending on which photography experience you book! Our Studio Experiences are limited to one location (our studio); with a Digital or Print Experience, we are glad to visit multiple spots for maximum variety!
Yes, depending on which type of session you are booking. Our studio is only open for sessions on weekdays, but we do carry some Saturday and Sunday availability for Digital Experiences.
Living on the coast means unpredictable weather, and there is often a 40% chance of rain every day. We have learned to wait until about two hours before your session start time to make a weather call, and often the prettiest skies open up after a dreary day. If your photographer decides the weather is too unpredictable to move forward with your session, we will offer you a make-up date if we have one available. If we are unable to reschedule your session, then you will receive a full refund.

Your Pensacola family photographer works in our studio and is trained by our Creative Director. But what does that really mean for our clients? Before you sign the contract, you will be paired with a specific photographer so you have the opportunity to develop an amazing working relationship prior to your session day.
You can expect to receive your online proofing gallery within two weeks of your session (though we are often faster). Once you make your selections, we will perform any requested retouches and you will receive your final images about a week later (depending on whether you have any editing requests, and how extensive those requests might be). However, if you need a specific photo faster in order to meet a deadline, please let us know in advance and remind us at your session; if we are able to accommodate your request, then we absolutely will!
After your session, we will load your edited proofs into an easy-to-use online proofing gallery, and email you the link and password (along with detailed instructions!). You will be able to view your images, and mark your selections. Once you make your selections, let us know and we will be able to log in and see the images you have chosen. If you prefer to proof in person, we would be glad to welcome you into our Pensacola studio - please let us know at the time of booking so that we can schedule your in-person proofing appointment.
Every client and session is unique, and so the number of proofs varies based on the details of your session. In general, you can expect to receive 60-100 images in your proofing gallery.
Yes! Your photos will be edited for color and lighting prior to you viewing them, and we will gladly do everything we can to make them “perfect” for you!
Absolutely. Your proofs will be edited for light and color, and usually need no additional retouching at all. However, we are glad to perform more extensive retouching on your final selections, upon request. Here are some examples of common retouching requests that are typically easy for us to accommodate: editing blemishes from your skin, removing strangers in the background of your photos, fixing a shirt tag that is sticking out of your collar, or making your arm appear slightly thinner. Once you make your selections, let us know if you have any requests at all, and we will be glad to do our best. Though most retouch requests can be performed relatively easily and at no additional cost, extensive retouching may incur an hourly editing fee (but we will make sure we have your approval prior to beginning any work).
Our booking process is streamlined, intuitive, and simple. Either submit our online contact form, or give us a call. We will discuss your needs, availability, and get your photography experience booked in a flash!
Yes! Once you have received your final images you will also receive a print release. Feel free to take your images and print them wherever you feel most comfortable.
We are partnered with a top-notch professional lab and would love for you to invest in a high quality print - you can even order prints and canvases directly from your final gallery! We recommend professional-quality prints for sizes 11x14 and larger.
Absolutely! Contact us and we would be glad to provide a printable gift card that you can wrap or email as you choose. Our gift card amounts are based on our session types (rather than flat dollar amounts), and begin at $125.
