About Us

Third Coast owner Carrie Robertson Meyer

Third Coast Photo is owned by photojournalist Carrie Robertson Meyer. Headquartered on the south Texas coast in Corpus Christi, the company provides photography services.

Our Name:
The coast has been a common thread in Carrie's life. Enchanted by the ocean's waves, beaches, marine life, birds and seascapes, she named her business "Third Coast" because of its location – along the sometimes forgotten third coast of the US – the Gulf of Mexico.
She and her husband live in a cottage on North Beach overlooking Corpus Christi Bay with their son Kai.

Our Services:
Photography – We create effective, telling images of all subject matter, shooting with professional digital camera equipment.

Our History:
Third Coast owner Carrie Robertson Meyer earned a degree in Photojournalism at the University of Texas in Austin. She gained experience as a newspaper staff photographer in the 1980s, shooting every possible subject. Photographing real-life situations, she learned how to tell a story with a photograph and how to deliver quality work on deadline.

In the 1990s, Carrie became an eco-tourism guide that took her to Mexico and Hawaii. While guiding groups, she carried a camera and began to build a stock portfolio of images. To showcase her work, she freelanced for outdoor and travel magazines.

Carrie has changed careers, languages and countries in order to experience life from different perspectives. In 2001, she returned to her home state of Texas, settling in Corpus Christi where she started Third Coast Photo.

Since then, she has worked to develop a strong network of associates and clients. A strong advocate of "community," Carrie is involved in improving the quality of life that the city offers to both its residents and visitors.
