Conservationist and documentary filmmakers Elam Stoltzfus and his son Nic Stoltzfus — who comprise the core team at Live Oak Production Group — created their latest documentary project on South Walton’s dune lakes.

They received funding for the project from the St. Joe Community Foundation, and are now in full production mode — researching, scripting and filming educational videos that reveal fascinating new details about South Walton‘s rare coastal dune lakes.

The documentary was created to address public awareness and educational needs that surround these natural treasures. Powerful images are being expertly captured to showcase the natural, cultural, recreational, scientific and educational uniqueness of this coastal dune lake region, and then they’re coupled with fascinating stories that include facts about the rich and colorful history of pre-development here.

The team’s blog features numerous related articles and photo essays, as well as video glimpses of the new project.

Here are 7 looks at this exciting project:
