Baby Samantha

admin — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 22:11:43 +0000

I had the pleasure of photographing Samantha as a newborn, and I got the opportunity to photograph her again when she was close to 3 months. It is amazing to me how quickly babies grow!

This first one is one of my all-time favorites!

I’m back!!!

Some of you may have noticed that my website has not been updated in a while. Well, the reason for that is I had a baby in the beginning of July! Due to pregnancy and the possibility of my husband going into the military, I was not booking weddings. I am back now though! Of course I am offering an August special: book your wedding (deposit paid) by August 31st and receive a free engagement session.

Julie & Lacey, A Wedding in Lake Wales, FL

I feel like such a bad blogger as I just realized that I did not post Julie & Lacey’s wedding from 6.5.10. Their wedding was in Lake Wales and it was beautiful. It was extremely hot and rainy that day, so I think we were all thankful for a church wedding and an indoor reception. Have I mentioned how lately how much I love my job? I feel truly blessed to be a part of the wedding day. Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

The church where Julie & Lacey were married was quite sentimental for them. Julie’s parents had been married in this church and Julie has attended this church since she was a little girl.

I LOVE that colorful shoes are in style right now. It’s a lot of fun!

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.

The girls had a wedding huddle before they left for the ceremony. ”Go wedding!”

This one was just too cute & funny not to include!

Newborn Session

A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to photograph this sweet 6 day old baby & had a blast! It was actually my first newborn session, but I hope it is the first of many, many more. Here are some of my favorites:

Logo!!!

Choosing a logo was a big decision for me, which is why it has taken over a year to decide on it. I couldn’t decide between utilizing peacock feathers or a dragonfly. However, once I did research on the meaning of each, it was definitely the dragonfly!

Here is the meaning behind the dragonfly from www.dragonfly-site.com.
The main symbolisms of the dragonfly are renewal, positive force and the power of life in general. Dragonflies can also be a symbol of the sense of self that comes with maturity. Also, as a creature of the wind, the dragonfly frequently represents change. And as a dragonfly lives a short life, it knows it must live its life to the fullest with the short time it has – which is a lesson for all of us. The dragonfly has been a symbol of happiness, new beginnings and change for many centuries and even though the representation of the dragonfly seems to change throughout the cultures, there are still a few things that are similar; the dragonfly means hope, change and love.

How perfect is it to incorporate something that symbolizes positive force, the power of life, happiness, & new beginnings! I would also like to mention that my late Grammy loved dragonflies & sometimes I imagine her flying around now as one. (I know, it sounds silly!)

Without further ado, let me introduce my new logo, which is exactly what I wanted. The creator did a perfect job!

It’s clean, elegant, & has the perfect colors!

Also, I would like to mention here that my Facebook fan page has been deleted, again. For now I will just be using the NetworkedBlogs function to update Facebook. I just can’t bear to create a fan page for the third time!
