Ginger Harvey of Ginger Snaps is a warm, friendly and nationally recognized photographer her clients say they love working with.

An Outer Banks native, Ginger says she’s always been a “beach girl at heart” and feels fortunate to be back home after her studies to “live and work with the sand between my toes.” Her degrees in Studio Art and Psychology from UNC-CH are a great background for the passion she finally focused on after studying photography in Italy.

Ginger’s specialty is wedding and portrait photography, but she’s also done some very nice local personality photos, like her black and white series of an Outer Banks duck decoy carver. She does a variety of portraits that include family, weddings, pets, maternity and seniors, providing casual and fun sessions that last about an hour. She offers a variety of wedding packages, either pre-designed or custom, and she includes sites from Carova to Hatteras and including Manteo (with travel fees to some areas).

Photography-wise, Ginger says her goal  is to “create images that incorporate a balance of candid emotion, photojournalism and  hints of traditional style.”

To Ginger, photography is more than a career or something she loves; it’s “who she is,” and she wants you to have as much fun during a shoot as she has. She’s available year round, and you can contact her by mail, email or phone to set up an appointment.

Sandy Run Park

Sandy Run Park

Sandy Run Park leads its visitors through the heart of Kitty Hawk Woods Coastal Preserve, one of the largest maritime forests remaining in North Carolina. Completed in two phases, the park now encompasses 1600 acres of marshland, waterways and maritime forest. The park features a wooden boardwalk, two gazebos, a fishing and many more amenities for the enjoyment of the area's natural beauty and wildlife. On a stroll through the park you will likely run into many of the area's indigenous creatures and plants.Just after entering the park, and next to the ample parking area you’ll find a covered picnic pavilion, a putting green, cookout grills and a basketball half court. Below the pavilion is a canoe and kayak access deck. Beyond this recreation and picnic area is a half-mile loop, mostly boardwalk, that will take you on a scenic and educational tour of a large section of the Preserve, where wildlife and plants are identified by plaques placed along the route. At the first gazebo stop is another kayak and canoe access where you’re sure to see many yellow-bellied slider turtles swimming all around and an Osprey family nesting above. Other creatures you may get a glimpse of include deer, otter, egrets, raccoons and even a nutria. Also along the boardwalk you’ll find an observation deck and a pier for fishing (license required). The fishing pond is stocked with several varieties of fish, including brim and bass..Sandy Run Park is open from sunrise to sunset. Although the cost is free, the natural serenity and beauty it offers is priceless.

Established in 1948 by Walter and Stelle Gray, Gray’s began as a single store on the beach road in Nags Head, a land mark that has been beautifully transformed into Seagreen Art Gallery. Visitors to the original Gray’s may remember that the family home was located above the store and that Walter Gray had a passion for Big Band music that was often playing on the store speakers, giving shoppers a little swing in their step.

 

Modern-day Gray’s is still family owned and operated by their children Ronnie and Julie Gray, who carry on a legacy of superior customer service and traditional values. Ronnie’s wife Susan is also an important part of the business. “It really was always a family operating as a business rather than a business being run by a family,” explains Ronnie Gray. “When our visitors come in, they are greeted by a warm hello and a ‘Welcome to Gray’s.’ We try to welcome them as if they’re entering our own home”
