Beach Photo
Meredith Abernathy has photographed Topsail families at sunset since 2015, from small families to big reunions, with a sunrise rain date built in for vacation clients.
Why guests book
Sessions start about an hour before sunset for soft light. If weather washes out your evening, vacation clients get a backup session just after sunrise the next morning, which takes the stress out of booking a single night. Collections run from digital-only to wall art and albums.
What you can book
- Vacation family portraitsImmediate family or the whole extended group.
- MilestonesNewborns, first-birthday cake smashes on the beach, maternity and seniors.
- CollectionsDigital galleries, prints, wall art and albums.
