Myrtle Beach Photographer

Hey, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a lifestyle photographer based near Myrtle Beach, SC, documenting real moments with heart. Whether you’re planning a family vacation or eloping by the ocean, I create nostalgic photos that feel like you.


 Nostalgic storytelling for laid-back families & couples

Book your session

Myrtle Beach has this magical glow — salty breeze, warm light, and a laid-back energy that just works for storytelling. I photograph families and couples up and down the Grand Strand, including:

Myrtle Beach State Park

Huntington Beach State Park

Market Common

Cherry Grove Pier

Murrells Inlet

I’ll help you choose the perfect spot for your vibe — whether you want toes in the sand or something a little off the beaten path.



WHY MYRTLE BEACH?

Why Myrtle Beach Is My Favorite Backdrop

By documenting a beautiful moment in time, for the authentic connection that you share & to capture those moments with a candid perspective that will last forever. I want to learn all about your story! 

Let's make magic!

Capturing moments in time.

"Tia was so easy to work with. Her creativity was amazing for my senior son-baseball player, hunter, fisherman. She captured his personality in his natural environment. Both my son and I felt very at ease. I would highly recommend her vision and expertise with her camera."

“We take photos as a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone.” –Thurmes

We booked Moody Momma while vacationing and she made the entire experience feel like home. We laughed the whole time and now we have the most beautiful, real photos of our kids just being themselves.”

— Sarah M., Myrtle Beach session
