Annabelle & Asher ~ Tampa Children's Photographer

I am so excited to finally post the full sneak peak to baby Asher's newborn photo shoot. We had a great time and were able to capture some amazing photos of the family and Asher's precious BIG sister, Annabelle. This is seriously one of the most beautiful little girls I have ever seen, pure natural beauty. One of my favorite comments from the session was Annabelle telling her mom that she did not want to wear a princess dress for the pictures, love it!! (Annabelle is into dinosaurs :) )

Thank you Ryan and Amber for allowing me to capture this special time in your lives as your family grows from 3 to 4!

Enjoy!

New Born Sneak Peak ~ Baby Asher

This past weekend I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing baby Asher. He was the most agreeable and perfect little baby that wanted to be awake and look around taking everything in during his photo session. This made for a very challenging shoot. After 3 feedings he finally gave it up and fell asleep. Well the wait was worth it...

Amber, Ryan, and Annabelle- I hope you enjoy this sneak peak of the newest member of your family! I am so in love with all of the photos that I decided I could not hold them hostage from you for very long. ;) Here are 2 of my favorites! More to come soon!

Enjoy!

How perfect is he? Simply perfection...

The H Family ~ Pass-A-Grille Beach

So here is one of my latest family sessions at just one of our beautiful beaches here in St Petersburg, FL. So this is not just any family, these are our cousins!!

RJ and Lacey came down from North Carolina with their beautiful daughter Madilyn. They stayed with Chris and I for the week and at the end of their stay we decided they need a few new family portraits before they left to go back home to the mountains. We had so much fun with them while they were here and are looking forward to our next visit! Miss you guys!!

I hope you enjoy your sneak peak!

Well I could not resist these beautiful portraits of the girls and then the crazy one of RJ, thanks for making this session so much fun!

The Proposal ~ David and Kelly's ~ The Birchwood

I am so excited to say that my mom is finally engaged to "D"!

I believe both families have been blessed with the addition of a loving spouse for each of our parents and we get to double the daughters in the family!!!

This was the most perfect evening! Through out the week we had terrible evening storms and we were all praying that it would be absolutely beautiful this special Thursday night, August 1st. Well, the weather was absolutely amazing! David took Kelly to an amazing dinner at The Birchwood and then arranged for some of their closest friends to join them on the roof top for THE PROPOSAL!

Here is a peak at our evening...

Enjoy

Congrats Jennifer & Gary~ Hernando Wedding Photographer

Well, where do I begin...2013 has been a very crazy year and I have not been very faithful in posting my pictures. It is time to get back on track and reveal some of the amazing photos that I have had the opportunity to capture this year!

First I am going to go back to April where I had the privilege to capture an amazing wedding! This was the most perfect small, quaint family wedding that so many brides dream of. Jennifer and Gary were married at Terra Vista Country Club on the golf course overlooking a beautiful lake with a fountain followed by their reception at Skyview. Every detail of the wedding was just perfect and we thank Jennifer's sister, Joanie, for all of her attention to detail and helping in creating this very special day. Jennifer is a hair stylist for Combs & Company, so she naturally was responsible for making everyone look beautiful for this day, which she did an amazing job of! (Did I mention she is also a make-up artist!! Truly talented). This was such a peaceful day and I hope you all enjoy their amazing wedding photos!

Congratulation again Jennifer and Gary!
