I love to celebrate and share in your joy just as I do with my own family. To follow your journey through photography is like telling a story with no words; there is sometimes more depth to a story that way. Through a shy smile, to a loving glance, I would love to tell your story.

I have many clients who have said they loved Mackie’s North Captiva Island Quest. This is a great opportunity for your kiddos to learn about what makes the island and Florida so special.

Looking for a fun way to break up your beach time for kids who need a break from the sun? On your visit to North Captiva, give your children the opportunity to come home with more than just a tan. Sign them up for a session of Island Quest to learn about the island and ocean animals as well as sea shells. Children ages 3-12 love this two hour program which is offered in my home’s ocean classroom. Extended learning packets go home with each child. Text retired educator and island resident, Valerie Horstman at 7405812079 to schedule a session. The cost is per child per session. Sessions are two-2.5 hours depending on size of group.

My sessions usually go like this....
Five minutes of get to know each other
A section on seashells with specimens and photos
A section on other sea life with specimens and photos
A break with a couple of active activities
Snack time
A section on sea turtles and gopher tortoise with books and photos/videos
Shell craft
A section on pollution of the oceans
A section on dolphins with books and photos/videos
A dolphin craft
Depending on time we can move on to a section on manatees
I also have a selection of ocean related games I use as time permits. Longer sessions are available at additional cost.
