I’m a New Smyrna Beach family photographer specializing in relaxed beach photos for vacation families, extended families, couples, maternity sessions, and seniors. Sessions are planned around beautiful light, one simple location, and easy direction so the entire experience feels calm, natural, and easy from start to finish.
We keep it relaxed, move a little, and grab the real stuff in between.
New Smyrna Beach is one of my favorite Central Florida locations for relaxed beach portraits, especially for families visiting on vacation, extended family trips, maternity sessions, couples, and updated family photos. Sessions are planned around the best light, beach conditions, crowds, and the overall feel you want for your gallery.
Smyrna Dunes Park
Best for families who want dunes, boardwalks, beach views, and a little more variety. Great for extended families and relaxed vacation photos.
Flagler Avenue Beach
A convenient option for families staying near the heart of New Smyrna Beach. Best for simple, classic beach photos with easy access.
27th Avenue Beachfront Park
A good option for families who want easy parking, beach access, and a straightforward meeting spot. Especially helpful for kids, grandparents, and vacation groups.
Bethune Beach
A quieter, more natural beach option with a calmer feel. Great for maternity sessions, couples, and families who want less crowd energy.
Ponce Inlet / Lighthouse Point Park
A beautiful nearby option with a different look, especially for families who want beach, rocks, dunes, and a little more coastal character.

We have a second home in New Smyrna Beach and every year when we have our children and their families visit, we be sure to have Michelle photograph us! Everything is so easy and the photos are just beautiful!
Michelle is simply the best! She made our family beach session so much fun because she just let us be us.
Michelle was wonderful for our New Smyrna Beach family photos. She made the whole session feel relaxed and easy, even with kids who had their own agenda. The photos are beautiful, natural, and feel like us — exactly what we were hoping for.
