Meet the Armstrong family!!! I just loved photographing them!! They were absolutely open to any idea I had and these kids were amazing! Chloe smiled on cue and Ty gave his signature "model stare" and I can't resist the adorable brother/sister kiss going on! {Not so sure they wanted to see mommy and daddy kiss though} I love when a family is open to my creative ideas and isn't afraid to try something new. A lot of times family photographs come off looking a bit "plain Jane" but you won't find that here! I like action shots, candid "caught in the moment" shots, and most definitely the love and bond of parents and children captured in real time. Thanks for a great shoot guys! Looking forward to seeing you again soon for your generation session with the whole gang! :)

We love the Robinson family, and I ADORE these photos from their beach session!!! Last year we had the honor of photographing Joanna's maternity session and also Zachary's newborn session-almost one year later they came back to us for family photos right before Zachary turned O.N.E!! :) Joanna and I discussed {in detail haha} what colors work best at the beach and how to color coordinate a family's wardrobe for a session- I gotta say, she did one heck of a job! They are all beautiful and we had a great night at the beach. A big thanks goes out to her sister who was there to assist in making Zachary smile by running in and out of the scene over and over....and over....and over...!!! I hope ya'll enjoy these photos as much as I do!
Boy oh boy...these kids were too much fun!!! And I've gotta give all of them credit for being willing to go barefoot in soaking wet grass! The spot I picked for photos had gorgeous morning light coming through the trees, but as it was still shaded, no sun had touched it yet to dry up the morning dew. We all went barefoot {including me!} and had a great time running through the grass. The kiddies didn't mind at all and they were all amazing. This session was especially fun because we had five kids, all under the age of 7! Mom and dad jumped in for a few but this morning was all about these gorgeous kiddies and their young spirit and joy :)
Last year we did Blake's newborn session-he was just as cute as can be! And now he has turned ONE and we got together to photograph him again :) Mom, Andrea, worked hard behind me dancing and singing to get Blake to smile and laugh. He had moments of pure excitement and that was my cue to click, click, click! I love these photos of him looking so joyful and full of life. They brought along some fun props too-great job guys!! Happy birthday to Blake and thanks for letting me be a part of his journey through life!
What a sweet and loving family this is!!! I am so happy that we finally were able to schedule a session after months of talking and planning :) I am happy to have met this wonderful crew. It was absolutely freezing outside but these kids hung in there! Little Miss was just amazing....she posed her little booty off and didn't stop smiling for the whole session. I was incredibly impressed with not only her smiling abilities, but also her kindness to me and her little brother. And we can certainly thank the Heavens for a beautiful sky and sunset!
Oh, the Evans family!!! I just love these little girlies :) Oldest daughter, Emma, has a piece of my heart-thats for sure! I had the honor of being her nanny for a short while last year and she is one that is easy to love. It was great being able to catch up with the whole family during their photo shoot. They are all so easy going and free spirited-I think the photos definitely capture their true essence. Sisterly love at its finest <3
Its always a unique experience being able to photograph your own family, and these four are no strangers to being in front of my camera! Clint and I have had the privilege of photographing Shelby, Brian, Colt and Brantley numerous times over the past few years. From Christmas pictures and family portraits, to newborn and one-year-old sessions...we've been a part of it all!! For this session, they decked themselves out in flannel and kicked off their shoes for a lake front photo shoot! The cool fall air had decided to turn the leaves on the property from green to yellow and red-I love the look of cool autumn air in these images! We love you guys!
Meet the Hutchinson family!!! What a great group of people :) And proof that even if you don't want to have your picture taken, you can still end up having a fun time! {Right, David?} Even little Wilf {yes, the dog} had a good time! :) The boys were full of energy and smiled and laughed the whole time, despite being worn out from an earlier soccer match and having the bugs come out near the end of the session! I love these images because it actually looks like FALL in Florida! Who would have known we had that season, if even for a brief period of time! You guys were awesome-it was great meeting you all!
My oh my, do children get any more beautiful? These kids come from some good genes, thats for sure! We were so honored to be able to photograph all three of them together just before the big move out of state! They left the sunshine state, but I hope that these yellow flowers on the walls of their new house keep a little Florida sun in their life :) Clint and I were thrilled to find this spot while just driving through a neighborhood one day and knew immediately it was the perfect location for these cuties! It took games, snacks and lots of energy to get the perfect shot...and I know I say it all the time...it was worth it! The smiles and laughter are just to die for! Thanks for letting us capture beautiful memories of your family! <3
Meet the Blanton family!!! A family full of energy and love! I gotta say, these boys were probably the most 'smiley' kids I've ever photographed-and I have my husband to thank for the giggles during the session as he stood behind me and acted silly to make them laugh! Everyone was so natural in front of the camera, making this session a breeze! They laughed and interacted with each other so gracefully which produced some amazing shots of them looking adorable!! Thanks for a great time guys! We hope to see you again :)
Its been quite some time since we shot at the beach (and we live in Florida!?)...so its always fun to experience beautiful sunsets, the sound of the waves, oh-and the massive storms that like to hit the coast every evening during the summer! After waiting out a thunderstorm in the car for the first 45min of our session, we were finally able to brave the beach as the wind did wonderful things to these girls hair ;) haha! As the night progressed, we noticed that it was getting calmer out and the sky was beginning to part. By the end of our session the sky had completed erupted in gorgeous orange, yellow and red as the sun sank down into the horizon. We never would have guessed that we would capture a sunset so beautiful given the conditions when we started..but hey, thats the joy of being a photographer! Sometimes you never know what will lie ahead of you-its the special moments like these that really make it all worth it. Besides the beauty of our world, the beauty of these little girls is undeniable! Big brown eyes, full lips and gorgeous tan skin- Summer and Frank did a great job :)
Meet Blake!! The cutest little puppy dog ever :) Getting ready for Blake's session, Clint and I wanted to try some completely new "newborn" tactics since it had been a little while since we shot a newbie. Looking through these now I am very happy with the results! It also helps that Blake is off the charts CUTE! We started the session with him naked, and 2 minutes in he decided to poop on our white blanket...that was the cue for us to take some pictures of Blake's older brother Brandon while we got Blake back settled again! He and his older brother were real troopers during their session as we tried many different looks with both of them! Here are a few of them!!
Two kids with absolutely massive amounts of JOY!!! We had a blast running around in a field of wild flowers, pretending to be super heroes, and smelling the beautiful spring time flowers. We didn't get them to stand still often, but when we did they were just precious! Thats not to say they were not precious when they were running around...just look at how happy they were the whole time! This shoot is a reminder that you should never take things too seriously, and when life gives you flowers-play in them!! :) Happy Easter everyone!
I just love these two little boys, aren't they the cutest!?! And not just because they are my nephews ;) We absolutely love this location, it is the perfect outdoor rustic setting and the grass just glows beautifully as the sun slowly glides down behind the trees. I won't ever tell where it is! haha :) We had an adventure during this shoot with some battle wounds acquired and frantically blowing bubbles to get them into the shot, but in the end it was all worth it...just look at these photos! Priceless!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this family. They have so much energy and joy and it is just absolutely contagious! I have received the pleasure of spending time with the Evans family lately as a nanny for their oldest daughter, Emma. When they asked us to do their family photos this year I was both thrilled and a bit nervous! We really had to knock it out of the park with this one or I would have some awkward work days (just kidding, ha ha!). In the days leading up to their session, Emma and I talked about the shoot quite a bit, picked out outfits for her to wear, and discussed poses and even did runway walks (she wants to be a model)! It was a ton of fun! I am so happy with the portraits that we got of the girls; their true essence is captured wonderfully.
Sunday we had to opportunity to shoot our nephew's 6 month photo session. I can't believe he has gotten so big so fast! It is amazing and scary...slow down little man!! It was craziness in our studio, thats for sure. Getting a 6 month old to smile and laugh on cue is hard work!! Needless to say we were all exhausted at the end. But it was a great time, and I am so happy with the photos that we got! Brantley and his older brother, Colt are two stinkin' cute kiddies (and not just because they are my nephews!) How can you not love those big baby blues :)
