The "oh so fabulous" Voter Family

This family was such a joy. I photographed Tricia, Brett and Ethan a little while back and was asked to get together with them again and do some pictures of the entire family. I knew if they were anything like Tricia & Brett it would be a blast, and of course it was. We froze, dodged a little bit of traffic, including a parked car (thanks for lookin' out Brett!) danced to silly children's music and laughed like crazy. They were such a fun group of people. I don't know who enjoyed it more, them or me! I have been so fortunate to work with such good people.
I hope to be their photographer again in the future.
 Thank you, Voter Family! You guys were awesome :)

A perfect day :)

Today, for the first time, Lily sat still and let me paint her nails! She is so in love with them. Constantly staring at her fingers, putting them in Troy's face to show him. I love it! I am the happiest Mama in the world. The little things really do matter most :)



 Staring at her pretty fingers :)


I hope everyone has a fabulous Thursday!

Alessio Family...


I love candid shots like this...


 
 
 ...and this :)
 
 


I was so happy to finally meet this family last weekend! I love meeting new people and being able to give them photographs they love and are so excited to share with friends and family. It makes me so happy! Brittany and I are going to be getting started on a special project soon, I can't wait! They're such a sweet family and I look forward to being able to work with them again :) Enjoy...

Noah Bear

Three years ago today, our first baby was born. My husband & I were living in Florida and decided to start our family :) We started slow and bought a dog ha ha! He is the sweetest and strangest dog ever. Although there are many days I want to remove his barker, I love him and could never live without him. He puts up with the obnoxious songs I sing to him and the dreadful voice in which I sing them, all of the weird nicknames and the never ending abuse from our oldest girl. He's a good boy and I'm so happy I found him that sunny day in Casselberry.

So, we'll be taking him out, like we do every year, to get dinner and an ice cream cone.
Happy Birthday Noah!
xoxo...

Sugarlump

I'll be the first to admit, I take a lot of pictures of my babes. They're my absolute favorite people to photograph. Lily's not a fan of the camera. She'll either look away or press her nose to my lens. There's really no in between. So I turn to Troy. He's always willing to sit still while I harass him with a million photos. Probably because he doesn't have much of a choice ha ha! Whatever the reason, I'll take advantage :)
Here are a couple from this morning. I really could just squeeze him!





I hope everyone has a great day and an even better weekend :)

The Ross Family...









I had so much fun with these four sweet people. We tried out a few new things, laughed a bit and just enjoyed each other's company. Their son, Connor, was the best assistant! Helping me set up, checking every now & then to see how his photos were coming out, sitting in my lap to help me hold the camera. Such a big help :) He was heartbroken when it was time for me to leave, it made me so sad. I had a great time though and am in love with their photos! I hope you enjoy them as well.

Annabelle Sophia


This little lady, I think, is a future supermodel. She is gorgeous & one day that face will be a big problem for her Daddy ;)
She's always willing to stop what she's doing for my camera. Love it!

Too big, too soon


My handsome little sugar lump started rolling over! He's 3 months now and the happiest baby ever. I have been blessed with the best two babies a Mama could ask for. I'm debating if I want to take my chances in having another and that one being my handful :/ I think I might quit while I'm ahead! But who knows. My husband & I haven't decided yet. So for now, I'm enjoying every minute I can of Troy while he's this little, just incase he's the last baby I have :)

Say "hi" to Brett, Tricia & Ethan









This family was one of the easiest sessions I've ever had. They're too sweet and have so much love and happiness. You can see it in every photograph. Families like this are so special!
We had fun playing at the park and strolling down the streets of downtown Jacksonville enjoying the beautiful day.
I love going back and looking through their photos. I hope you love them too :)

Welcome to the world, sweet baby Colton




This handsome little fella is Colton :) I was so happy when I heard my latest client had been born. I ordered a bunch of new props to use for his session and they worked out great! He is so sweet and was so good for us. Even when he wasn't asleep he would just lay there relaxed and content.
I definitely look forward to working with him again :)

& a big "Thank you" to 2 a T Tot Shoppe for the props made and used in this session. She is wonderful to work with! Check her out on Facebook :)

Mrs. O'Neil




There is one lucky gentleman who will have a very special Christmas present under the tree this year ;) I love Boudoir sessions! She & I had a lot of fun. There's nothing like getting dressed up and feeling sexy in your own skin in front of a camera. This lady loves her fella and come Christmas morning, he will see just how much!
