Welcome Nora Vivian!

This was a super special newborn session for me.  (Okay, all sessions are super special, but this one was just a little extra special!)  Sara & Kyle were my very first wedding & now I had the pleasure to photograph their newborn baby.  : )  Nora was such a sweetie & a great model!  She loved being on her tummy and was by far the “bendiest” baby I have ever photographed.  Congrats Sara & Kyle!

Welcome Princess Brooklynn

I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful 8 day old newborn.  : )  It was definitely quite the “explosive” session and for those of you who have experienced a newborn session, you know what I am talking about!  I must say that I have not laughed that hard in a very long time.  Princess Brooklynn is definitely a princess & diva in training.  Here are some of my favorites from the day:

Sarah & Patrick – A wedding at Leu Gardens in Winter Park, FL

I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Sarah & Patrick’s wedding last weekend.  Their wedding was held at Leu Garden’s in Winter Park, FL.  For those of you who haven’t been to Leu Garden’s, you are truly missing out.  It is such a beautiful place & is the perfect setting for a garden wedding.  Sarah & Patrick chose the lawn as their ceremony location, which was the perfect choice for a warm spring day.

Sarah and Patrick – I just want to say thank you for allowing me to be a part of your special day.  You are such a beautiful couple, inside and out, and your love for each other is simply undeniable.

I was unable to stick to my self-inflicted rule of only posting 5 images per post.  There were just too many to choose from!  Enjoy!

I just love the light in the one above.  We could not have asked for a more beautiful day.

Awaiting baby Samantha – A Maternity Session in Central Florida

Meredith was a little unsure about whether she wanted to do a maternity session as she wasn’t feeling oh-so-pretty.  (This is a pretty normal reaction to the idea of maternity photos.)  However, her thought process was along the lines of “what if I don’t get the chance to do this again, whether it be because we only have one baby or we don’t have time to do it later.”  This is a great mindset to have!  If you’re unsure of whether or not you want to do the maternity session, just do it!  If you don’t like the photos, at least you know you gave it a try.  (Disclaimer – I have not had any client say that they are upset that they did the photos.  Every client has been happy & is glad that they did the session.)

Meredith didn’t want to do any completely bare belly shots, which is just fine!  Maternity sessions are all about what the mom-to-be wants and I am more than happy to oblige.  She brought along a lot of great outfit choices which is fabulous!  I was so happy that she brought some color because I love color.  : ) She is a gorgeous woman & I believe that came across in the photos.  Without further ado, here are some of my favorites from the day:

Welcome Baby Ethan – a newborn photo session in Central Florida.

You are sure to recognize the parents of this gorgeous baby boy as they are repeat clients.  I photographed this sweet baby boy at 6 days old.  He is just so precious!  I love that Bob & Kelly are so trusting of me as it really allows me to get some great artistic shots.  Here are a couple of my favorite from their session.  Enjoy!
