I had a blast with this extended family session in Crescent Beach a couple weeks ago. On vacation here in St. Augustine, they were such a fun and easy group with lots of personality! The shades of blue and white looked so nice with the water. I think they’ll treasure these memories for a long time. u See more …
This family beach photography session in Cocoa Beach recently was such a sweet time. There were so many moments while the kids played and explored that I had the opportunity to capture. It’s hard to believe that I was shooting a wedding for this couple (not that long ago!) and now there is a family of FIVE. The main occasion …
This family beach portrait session became a new favorite of mine as I looked over the images and remembered how gorgeous the sky looked that night and how the seaweed (thankfully fresh-not-stinky) added even more color and texture to the landscape. Whenever possible, capture your family beach portraits during the last 30 minutes of daylight and hope for some clouds …
Family vacation photography is a great way to capture memories while you’re all together in one place, without a lot of scheduling problems, and with the added bonus of remembering this special occasion! I have more and more families contacting me as they gather together in St. Augustine. First of all, I’m so impressed by extended families who manage to …
I had the pleasure of photographing this Class of 2018 graduating senior a couple weeks ago on St. Augustine Beach. Senior portraits are so fun and it’s so important to capture these memories – not only of the completion of high school but of this incredible season of life, full of promise and new beginnings! Also, congratulations to this senior and …
I photographed this adorable family just last week on the beach in Cocoa Beach. It feels like not long ago I was capturing this big sister as a newborn and now POOF everyone is growing up. We had gorgeous spring weather and waited until the very last part of the day in order to have beautiful skies (and less heat!) …
I’m living up to my promise to myself and getting the blog caught up! Well, mostly caught up, I won’t be able to post every single shoot I’ve left out in the past year or so but I’m going to do my best to cover a bunch of them. For personal reasons, I just like to have a nice archive, like …
I photographed this session a few weeks ago in Melbourne. This baby girl turned a year old and has such a sweet spirit and the cutest red hair growing in. I love that we could capture her attempting first steps, taking a break with her bottle and enjoying her favorite book (with both hands and feet!) These are fleeting moments …
I think I confessed recently that there was a time, years ago, that I didn’t enjoy extended family sessions very much. I might have definitely avoided them. I think it was for two reasons. First, the flow is different than a shoot with one family. We spend more time on posed groups and less time on individuals, candid/creative time, etc. …
I love photographing families as they grow through the years! Little Austin had his first birthday so we met on the beach to photograph this special milestone. These sweet brothers are growing up so fast
Wow, I have been so buried in moving you guys! I completely lost track of blogging for a bit and took a short break from shooting as well! (We only moved a few miles north but might as well be a few hundred miles right?) However, I did photograph this fun family on vacation at the beach a couple weeks …
I’ve been capturing these sweet girls for many years now and it’s so fun to watch them grow. This year, mom wanted to do something a little different and include some props. I don’t do tons of this normally because it can either look really static if the kids are uninterested in it or can become a major difficulty if …
I knew when this family showed up with a cooler that it would be a fun, relaxed session! Seriously though, I admire how they made the shoot an enjoyable outing together rather than simply a photo op. I’ve worked with this family several times now but this was the first time they gathered uncles and grandparents together for a large group …
I can’t BELIEVE this precious girl is already a year old, walking around like it’s her job, full of personality and the very best belly laughs. I loved the chair her mom brought along that has been passed down through the family. The added color was great too. We shot this session at Gleason Park, thankfully without any wildlife “incidents.”
This was my second year capturing family holiday photos for the Laylands. They’ve been good friends of ours for a long time so it’s been fun living closer since we moved. We shot this quick session on St. Augustine beach a couple weeks before Christmas. Cloudy skies at the beach are my favorite!
Family sessions at home are my favorite, especially with front porches! I love this cute family and their fun, adorable children…
I had the best time capturing this adorable family on the beach a few weeks ago! This sweet girl was just so happy and so loved and so precious! Even editing the photos I found myself smiling…
Capturing families at home is the best and working with families through the years is the best so this session is a great example of my favorite thing to do! Little Madelyn turned two recently. I love her curls and her inquisitive nature. (I remember noticing these things about her when she was only 8 months old!) Such a beautiful …
Well, I’m a little behind blogging right now as I’ve been dealing with our big family move, getting settled, getting kids ready for school (3 kids in 3 schools, ugh) and updating the website + business in order to add some new services – including the St. Augustine area! I’ve been shooting a little less during this time which has been great …
I photographed this cute family a little over a week ago in Cocoa Beach. We had a beautiful night and I still can’t get over how adorable their sweet girl is!
