Hello there!

I’m Brianna Merritt,

your dedicated Destin, Florida, photographer and proud mom of three. Nestled in the breathtaking beauty of the Emerald Coast, I've found my passion and purpose in freezing moments in time for families like yours.

  • “Couldn’t be more happy with how beautifully Brianna captured my family in our beach photo session. I’ve used many photographers in the past, and Brianna is definitely in a league of her own. I highly recommend investing in a photo session with Brianna!”

    — Alexandra Krull

  • “One of the best photographers in the Destin area hands down!! Brianna captured my maternity photos and I am speechless!! I have a 5-year-old and a 3-year-old who don’t always listen the best and Brianna was so great with both of them! She was patient and still managed to get the most beautiful shots! So grateful for the memories.”

    — Lavona Hughes

  • “I can’t say enough good things about Brianna and our experience! From start to finish, she made what can be a stressful experience, so smooth and enjoyable! Her work is amazing and honestly, the best family pictures we have had! She went as far as to provide resources to help with outfit coordination and she helped me pick out the outfits we wore! She was great with the kids and so personable. Worth every penny and 10/10 recommend.”
