We will be meeting family at the beach for a few days during the week of April 1 and want to get photographs done while there. Little ones grow so fast. Would love some help securing a photographer with experience in beach photography. Any suggestions from you who have used photographers down there?

We used Catherine Strauss Galloway from Grayton a few years ago. The photos were exquiste & very unique. Not sue she's there anymore tho, but we would definately use her again.

Thanks for the help. I must have seen her sign or studio because her name is very familiar to me.

Any suggestions from you who have used photographers down there?The cheapest person we could find was $800 just for the sitting fee, plus the cost of the photos. We did it ourselves with a tripod and our digital camera for free.

Thanks, Beach Runner. Have to talk to Pop about a fee of $800.00 plus. Photographs are his idea, but he is not a happy camper. I mailed his application for the Peachtree too late to make the Saturday PM post and so far, no number. If any of you runners out there from Atlanta have one you cannot use, I would love to purchase.

It's not too late to apply for the Peachtree. Last year I submittted my application past the deadline. I still got in Group 2. Here's the application http://www.atlantatrackclub.org/06prr-app.pdf. It helps if you have a documented time from another 10K.
needs to get out more

but when you pay the fee, you at least get pictures with your entire faces.

Thanks all - I think she decided to "do it yourself" Very small wedding with lots of wannabe photographers.

And you know what? She will have the best pictures! I think lots of frinds and family and cameras make for much more fun AND great pics!

That sounds like a good idea to me. Besides who wants pictures that are better and last longer than the marriage?! :roll: :roll: Just kidding..........sort of.........As my mom has said lately, "Go ahead and get that first one out of the way so you can get it right the next time."

If I were a gator or a bee I'd cover my face too ;-) (Couldn't resist!)
Congrats on the Final Four...and (choke, cough) good luck the rest of the way.

In my experience in attending hundreds of athletic events, it's the LSU fans that are the most obnoxious. Yet, people don't seem to hate them like they hate the Gators.

No, it comes naturally.
Before the head gator on this board sends me to the lounge for going off on a tangent, carry on with the photographer recommendations...
