Welcome to Coastland Photography

What a gorgeous day it is already, I love watching the sunrise over the ocean. I hope you enjoy viewing these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Had another interesting sunset at Bay drive tonight.

After taking a few days off I found myself back at Hayman park on Bay drive for another beautiful sunset. The best part of catching the sunsets here is getting to chat with all my friends as they come by for a sunset stroll on the walkway.

I’m fortunate to live on the outer banks where I can photograph the sunset on the west side then run across the island and photograph the moon rising over the water. I had to scramble and I almost missed it because I was set up on the wrong side of the pier. I did capture… Read more

I am lucky to be able to run down to the sound and capture these images just about every night and rarely am I disappointed in the show.

We had a pretty strong thunderstorm roll through Kill Devil Hills last night and I was fortunate enough to catch the sunset right after it had passed.

I thought that we were going to have thunderstorms all evening so I was pleasantly surprised when I noticed a break in the clouds creating the best sunset so far this year. Naturally by the time that I got to a good vantage point I had missed much of the sunset but we do the… Read more

Sunrise at Avalon pier in Kill Devil Hills, NC.

Another beautiful day on the outer banks, the sunset was just the icing on the cake!

I had planned to go to Nags Head this morning for the sunrise but unfortunately there didn’t seem to be any clouds south of Kitty Hawk so I stopped at Kitty Hawk pier instead. I am so glad that I did, the photos speak for themselves but what you don’t see is all the puppy… Read more

Sunrise photos at Avalon Pie in Kill Devil Hills NC.

Another great sunset on Bay Drive in Kill Devil Hills.

Love these shots from under Kitty Hawk pier. Not only was it a gorgeous morning but the trout were biting as well.

Another gorgeous morning to be quarantined in Kitty Hawk.

This was a cool windy morning to be on the water, 12 knot wind from the north east that cut right through my coat! Still a beautiful morning even with the cold.

I looked into my crystal ball and found an upside down world! The cool thing about being a novice photographer is the willingness to explore alternative worlds. Sunset on Bay Drive in Kill Devil Hills tonight.

Another great day on the beach.

I tried to cull some photos but I couldn’t cut it down enough for just one post today.

I got a bit outside my normal stomping grounds today and had a wonderful morning photographing the sunrise and surfers enjoying the day,

If you’d like a print to brighten your wall they are available and quite reasonable during these trying times. coastlandphotography@gmail.com

I got a late start to the sunrise due to work issues but I am so glad that I made it in time for the big event. I hope you enjoy the photos and if you would like one to brighten your wall just let me know. coastlandphotography@gmail.com

I tried to get the Pink super moon last night as well as the sunset on bay drive, clouds prevented me getting either but I did get the moon later that night.

Once again today there was a cold northerly wind and the surf was still impressive, 8 to 10 foot breakers.

A beautiful sunrise this morning at Avalon pier in Kill Devil Hills North Carolina.

I got some great shots of the local ospreys by the lake today. I absolutely love ospreys and can spend hours watching them. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed shooting them.

Today was an incredible day with a westerly wind so the wind blew the spray back .

I had to share this one, I absolutely love this photo.

I hope you find something here that you love
