beach house rentals

for weddings and receptions

I am a destination wedding & elopement photographer + planner based in Destin, Florida. I am originally from the small college town of Lexington, Kentucky, but before long my family moved to Toronto, Canada. My most vivid memory from living there is being able to walk into our backyard and straight onto my neighbor’s ice rink, much better than any indoor ice rink I have come across. Fast forward a handful of years, we moved to Nashville where I finished up elementary school and attended high school. I graduated from the University of Tennessee Knoxville in the spring of May 2020 with a BS in marketing and a collateral in entrepreneurship. After graduation I moved down to Florida to be with my partner who is stationed in the area.

I am an avid reader, traveler, and learner. You can never go wrong with a cup of tea and a good book. Our cat, Finn, and our dog, Phoebe, will take rare breaks in their energetic days to curl up with me – they are good company!

Hi!

At Audrey Darke Photography, I believe in honest storytelling. As your wedding and elopement photographer, I go beyond the obvious to capture moments otherwise unnoticed⏤the crinkle of a nose, the stitching of a gown, the look in their eyes when they see you for the first time⏤that tell the depths of your love story. I am committed to enhancing your vision by curating a day that is uniquely you. I vow to see you for who you are, to honor your time and vision, and to respect our world as we venture together to places unknown.

my philosophy

Getting married on the beach and want to have your reception at a beach house and maybe even have those celebrating with you stay too? I know how hard it can be to find a house that meets all your needs and allows for events to be held in the space, so I have complied a list of house rentals that have been used by past couples or that I have vetted to be used for these occasions!


If you think that I will be a good fit then let's hop on a call and do this thing! We can get it set in stone! If you have any questions do not hesitate to reach out. 



I can be best reached at my email - audreydarkephoto@gmail.com. After you let me know which session you want I will have a contract drawn up for you to read over and sign. The final step will be the non refundable retainer to reserve the date and time you want. 



I cannot wait to work with you and if you need anything just ask me!
