Nothing like getting a wall-worthy photo this beautiful of the whole family 🥹

I’ll be back to posting my stunning clients soon, just had to share one more awesome thing!! I am beyond honored to have my photography journey featured in my hometown newspaper this month, The Somers Record.

Seeing the career that I started at just 15 years old now recognized, celebrated and honored in over 6,000 copies, is more surreal than I can even wrap my head around.

I wouldn’t be here without each and every one of my clients who chose me along the way, and everyone who has supported me. Thank YOU so much for this ❤️

As many of you know, this has been one of the hardest years of my life losing my mom earlier this year, and after completely refining my photography business just a few months ago, being recognized tonight as a Top 3 Finalist for Best Photographer of St. Augustine once again, means more than I can put into words.

Thank you to every client, friend, family member, and supporter who has believed in Melissa McGarry Photography. Your encouragement has carried me through a season of so much change, and I’m so excited for everything this next chapter has in store. ✨

This little boy certainly was the star of the show! Sometimes, you Harry Potter wand is required to keep the magic of our photoshoot alive! ✨🥹

I am incredibly honored to share that I have been nominated for the 2027 Flagler College Young Alumni Achievement Award! 🎓

The Young Alumni Achievement Award is presented to alumni 32 years of age or younger who have demonstrated outstanding accomplishments since graduation. This award recognizes contributions to society, to a profession, or to Flagler College. The award may be based on professional and education achievements, community activities, and honors and awards received. In the last almost 30 years this award has existed, only 11 individuals have been awarded it. It would be truly such a prestigious honor to receive.

What started as a passion when I was just 15 years old has grown into an 11-year journey as a professional photographer. Moving to St. Augustine in 2018 to attend Flagler College was the catalyst that truly leveled up my business. Balancing full-time academics while scaling a decorated business taught me the power of discipline and visual storytelling.

I have such an outpouring love and appreciation for St. Augustine and for Flagler. I would not be where I am today without this beautiful city and its community. I am so grateful to also be awarded as a finalist (so far! 🤞) for the Best Photographer of St. Augustine again this year in addition to this nomination.

To be shortlisted by the Alumni Committee based on this 11-year legacy is a beautiful milestone. The nomination process is officially underway, and the selection committee will be announcing the winner later this year.

A huge thank you to whoever submitted my name (if you know who you are, please reach out so I can thank you!) and to the Alumni Board for reviewing my story. Just being considered is an incredible honor!❤️📸

What a lovely time seeing the Ball Family again last week! Every time they’re in town I get to meet a new member of the family.

I’m so glad they got me back down to one of my old favorites, Washington Oaks Gardens State Park. It was beautiful as ever and was a nice mix up from my usual sunset beach sessions (although they have my heart 😊)

See you next time Ball family! 🥹🫶

Man oh man is the busy season in full swing!! I am so grateful and thankful to y’all for getting me out to the beach for all of these incredible sunsets week after week.

My extended family sessions are some of my absolute favorite. More often than not, there is always something being celebrated when everyone comes together and | love being able to capture whatever it is and learn more about it during our time together. In this case, that little man just recently turned 1!

On all of my larger family photoshoots I make sure to capture the entire group and family combos, all the way down to the individual mommy & me photos while still allowing time for more prompted and intentional poses. It is no easy feat on a shoot like this with SIX littles, but we got it done with no meltdowns, way past everyones bed time and in my book, that is a win 🤣

Y’all!!! I could not WAIT to share this gallery.

I met Alessia back in college. We became friends and I even captured her senior graduation photos!

Fast-forward to now, Alessia came back to St. Augustine for her honeymoon with her wonderful husband Liam. The two of these were down to let me execute a newer, golden, cinematic style i’ve been itching to try and they were flawless at the Matanzas Inlet in south St. Augustine Beach.

I had so much fun working with these two. Someone get them a modeling contract asap! Thank you Alessia for trusting me with your honeymoon. Congratulations to the Cahills! 🫶✨

Sometimes i'm asked if dogs can join our photoshoot (which by the way, yes please!) Other times, I get to do a photoshoot for the dogs!!

The Thurman family visits St. Augustine with their furbabies regularly and it's always a pleasure to see them and photograph their pups. All these three stunning huskies had beach-themed names to top it off. Such a fun evening at Vilano Beach!

05/21/2026

I cannot get over this family photoshoot I did on Vilano in St. Augustine last weekend. These three brought all of my Pinterest dreams to life! 🥹

Nico reached out to book a session as a gift for his wife for Mother's Day. The weather could not have been more perfect and the sunshine was so freaking beautiful!
