30A Family Photographer | The Hewett Family Extended Beach Session

Today it is my pleasure to introduce you to the Hewett family — all the way from the great state of Texas! As a 30A family photographer, getting to photograph generations of families like the Hewetts is one of the most meaningful parts of what I do.

No Extra Fees for Large Families — Ever

Many photographers charge more for large or extended family sessions, but I never will. I love photographing generations of families and capturing memories that will be passed down to other family members. Those multi-generation portraits tell a story that words cannot describe — it’s something you have to see to believe.

30A Skies That Showed Up

The Hewett family chose the beautiful beaches of 30A for their session, and we were blessed with some of the best skies of the year. It was an absolutely amazing day — gorgeous emerald water, a cool breeze that made the session enjoyable for everyone, and that soft 30A light that flatters every face in the group.

Why 30A Is Perfect for Multi-Generation Family Portraits

From wide, walkable beach access points to quieter dune-lined stretches, 30A gives extended families plenty of room to spread out, gather close, and capture every combination of grandparents, parents, kids, and cousins. If you’re traveling in for a session, my 30A locations guide and visitor guide are great starting points for planning your trip.

A Few Frames From a Perfect Day

Please enjoy this small sample of breathtaking photos we captured on this perfect day. I am so happy I got to meet and photograph this wonderful family — and can’t wait to capture more images for them next year!

Planning Your Own 30A Family Session

Whether you’re a local or, like the Hewetts, traveling in from out of state, I’d love to help you design a session that captures your family exactly as they are right now. As a Destin and 30A family photographer, I work all along the Emerald Coast — from Watersound and Seaside to Rosemary Beach and beyond. Please contact me for detailed pricing and to reserve your session.

About the Author: 30A Photographer Santa Rosa Beach & Destin

Hi, I'm Amanda Eubank — a premier Emerald Coast photographer specializing in family, senior, engagement, maternity & newborn portraits along Florida's most iconic coastline. For more than a decade, I've been capturing the natural beauty and easy magic of Destin, 30A, Santa Rosa Beach, Rosemary Beach, Watersound, Seaside, Watercolor, and the surrounding sugar-white shoreline. Every gallery is tailored to reflect the people in front of the camera — warm, candid, and connection-driven — designed to feel less like a photo shoot and more like a memorable time with your favorite people. Whether you're planning a vacation session or marking a milestone, I'd love to create timeless, emotive images that feel like the trip itself. I'd love to hear from you.
