Beach Photographer

[CiaoBella]

Can someone please recommend a reliable person to take family photos at the beach? I have seen numerous photographers on the web but would appreciate your candid experiences as this is very costly and need the most for the money. A very patient person is needed as I have teenagers and an infant.

In case you have not yet taken the photos, you may want to check out Lisa Marie Photography. She has spent the past 7 years photographing families, infants, brides, etc.... and just moved full time into Seagrove Beach this past June. She has repeat clients like NBA and NFL all stars and families from Atlanta and Dallas, as well local architects and real estate professionals in the 30-A area. She is very good, and a real bargain in this area. Appreciated by clients who fly her to Colorado and other interesting places to shoot weddings. She has been a bit too busy to update her website, but you can get a flavor by going here: http://www.lisamariephoto.com/mp_client/portfolio07.asp

Totally agree about Marla Carter. We've used her 3 times and she is worth every penny. And kids are her specialty! She has a blog where you can see her latest shoots. http://www.marlacarter.typepad.com

I think they covered it but I have to add Michael Granberry too. He has a little different style than the others but I love them all. You can find Michael at his shop "Simple" in Ruskin Place

Sheree Williams. She has been doing our beach portraits for over 10 years. She is great with kids. She took the picture for my avatar. (I love Marla and Shane too though. They have both taken pictures of my family. Shane is the beach portrait photographer and Marla does family shots in the home)
