30A Sunset Beach Family Photography Sessions

Sunset is when the beach glows with soft golden light and pastel skies, the perfect backdrop for family portraits on 30A. Our Sunset Beach Sessions capture connection, movement, and natural laughter as the sun dips behind the coastline. We photograph along the 30A beaches including Rosemary, Seaside, WaterColor, Alys, and Santa Rosa Beach, with Destin available upon request. These sessions are ideal for family vacations, senior portraits, couples, and maternity, offering cinematic light and timeless photographs of your trip to the Florida coast.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Sunset is our signature session and the most popular choice for families vacationing along 30A and the Emerald Coast. The light is warm, cinematic, and incredibly flattering, especially as the sun dips behind the dunes. It’s the time of day that gives you the classic 30A family beach look you see in our galleries and on Pinterest.

  • Sunset Sessions run 40–60 minutes and allow enough time for both posed portraits and more relaxed storytelling moments…the laughing, splashing, and real-life connection you want from beach photography. The pacing is natural, never rushed, and gives kids time to warm up without dragging past attention spans.

  • The Sunset Session includes 40–60 images, though most families receive 60+ due to the variety sunset provides. I photograph continuously, with direction and posing that feels natural and polished. You’ll receive a gallery with a mix of wide scenic images, close emotional moments, and everything in between.

  • Sunset works beautifully for a wide range of families, from young children to teens to multi-generational trips. It offers more variety than our Half Beach Session and Full Beach Sessions and tends to produce the most emotional and story-driven galleries, which makes it a favorite for families visiting Rosemary Beach, WaterColor, Seaside, Seacrest, Alys Beach, Inlet Beach, Miramar Beach, and Destin.

  • Yes. The Sunset Session includes up to six people in the session price, and additional family members may be added for $50 per person. This allows enough time to photograph the full group, individual family units, and the combinations that matter most especially for multi-family vacations along 30A.

  • Sunset begins warm and golden and softens into pastel tones as the sun lowers behind the dunes. While Mother Nature always has the final say, sunset consistently offers the most cinematic coastal light. It’s also the time of day that creates the iconic 30A beach portraits families return for year after year.

  • As early as possible. Sunset is limited to one session per evening and books quickly during spring break, summer, and fall. If your travel dates are already set, securing your session early gives you the best chance at your preferred evening. Many families make this their yearly 30A vacation tradition.
