Carrie Alves Photography

We chose Carrie Alves Photography all the way from Arkansas for our beach wedding. We are so please with our beautiful wedding photos! They look like something out of a magazine. We could not have asked for more. We loved his style and openness! Super laid back, go with the flow. My daughter had a pee accident right before leaving to walk down the isle in her flower girl dress. His assistant was so calm and collected. She helped mama clean up the mess. Big thank you Carrie Alves Photography!!! More...

I recommend Carrie Alves Photography. Easy to communicate with, very professional and very polite. The pictures that were taken were outstanding. Very good ideas on poses and how to capture the most of the beach setting. Great with the big group and with the kids. Best family photos we have ever had. More...

Absolutely perfect!We had Carrie and Gary come out to our family reunion on the beach, and they were amazing!  Fourteen people, ages 9 months to 80 years, and every picture was absolutely perfect.  Very relaxed and fun, with gorgeous lighting and the background scenery perfectly chosen.  Unlike other photographers we have used, you pay one price for the photo session and it includes high resolution downloads of ALL of your photos, making the pictures for our large group very cost effective.  And they were GORGEOUS!  I couldn't be happier with the pictures.From the moment we called to book our photo shoot, when Gary determined the sunset time and what time they would arrive, to the day of our pictures, when we asked to recreate a photo from 20 years ago of my kids, Gary was extremely helpful and professional.  I would use them again in a heartbeat.  You will not be disappointed with your pictures!  I'm so glad we trusted Carrie Alves Photography with our precious memories.  Worth every penny!

Amazing! Wonderful!! Both Gary and Carrie were incredibly patient with my two toddlers. My little one said "The camera man said I get ice cream, if I smile. " haha We all had a great time, he made picture taking a breeze! I was blown away on how beautiful the pictures came out. We love working with them, and will use them in the future. Excellent work!!!

I am so glad I found Carrie Alves Photography! While my family and I were vacationing in Destin, Fl. This summer, I wanted professional pictures taken on the beach. Gary EXCEEDED my expectations!! My pictures, and everyone agrees, look like something out of a movie! Gorgeous is an understatement!!! Gary was so prepared, and very relaxed! That is very important to me, you need to be relaxed during the photo shoot, or it can show in the pics. Every detail, down to having a brush, to brush the sand off us while we were posed, made me at ease! I would HIGHLY recommend Carrie Alves Photography to anyone, for any occasion!!! More...

As a freelance photographer, I’m picky. After perusing through multiple photographer websites in the area, I called two. Gary and his team actually answered the phone - while the other one had a recording �. He is a winner out of the gate just for offering personal customer service. More...

We did family photos on the beach with Gary last August and they were off the charts AMAZING! The couples photo that he took in the water could easily be used for the cover of a romance novel if you want the BEST you need to book with Carrie Alves Photography right now! !! You may find someone cheaper... you WILL NOT find anyone better. Pictures are memories you can share make sure they are perfectly captured behind this Artists lens! More...

They actually sent two photographers which was wonderful and a surprise. Between the two of them they took photos that i would've never thought to ask for. They were so easy to work with and took every picture we ask them to take. Since I forget to make a list of the ones I wanted we were working on the fly and they just rolled with it. :) The pictures are beautiful and I love all of them! We will use Carrie Alves Photography, Inc. the next time we are in Florida for vacation pictures. More...

I am a professional wedding photographer. So when it came time to choose a photographer for my own daughter's wedding, the choice was a no brainer. I was Gary's mentor for a while and it has been so great to see him grow and develop into a very high quality wedding photographer! When he said he was open for Alexis' date I booked him on the spot! The day ended up being quite chaotic with Hurricane Irma threatening the region and even causing the wedding to be moved up several hours. Gary responded to the challenges without a hitch. A sign of a true professional! His images showed the beauty and humor of the day. We love them! If you are able to, book Carrie Alves Photography for your wedding! More...

Highly recommend Mr. CARRIE!! so i had this trip planned with the girlfriend for about a month. Originally this trip was for pure vacation even though i was awaiting an engagment ring to finish up. When i got the call that it was ready for pick up early and in time for the trip, it turned into a frantic planning fiasco. I reached out to many photogtaphers but Carrie was the only one willing to work with such a short time frame. He is proffesional while affordable yet his services delivered surpass all the competition. Not afraid of getting covered in sand or water, Carrie's goal is truley to capture that perfect moment and make it yours. Thanks Carrie! More...

Book him.

I have known Gary and Carrie for about 7 years and for the last 7 years I promised him if I ever get married he is the guy I will trust with our wedding pictures.

As always he provided superior service, outstanding photos and an easy method to download the pictures.

I most strongly recommend Gary for all your photos needs -
