Sneak Peek!

How sweet is this little newborn boy?  Not only is he sweet, he is very smart too!  Just look how alert he is!  He knew I was there and decided he wanted to stay awake for most of his session.  Once he was asleep I was able to capture some peaceful moments, but he didn't like to be disturbed.  When I would try to move him and position him in a different way he would let out a little cry as if to say "leave me alone, I'm trying to sleep!"  I had a really nice time photographing him and meeting his very loving family.  Thank you for being so patient, I can't wait to watch your little one grow over the next year.  Here are a few images, just look at those beautiful eyes and those lips, just GORGEOUS!

A few of Evan...

Well, it is getting harder and harder to get pictures of my little guy!  He is just busy, busy, busy!!!  Seriously, I am wondering why I'm not a size 2 from chasing him around all day long?!?!  It must be from the several glasses of wine I drink at the end of the day to unwind.  This is one of the most difficult ages to photograph.  I took these in about a minute and a half and he was done looking at the camera and interacting with me.  One of my resolutions was to take more snapshots of my kiddos and not worry about getting the perfect shot.  So here are some, not perfect but I'm excited to get just a few of him looking and not the back of his head as he runs away from me!!!  

Ava's new haircut

We chopped Ava's hair!  It is a little too short but I love how easy it is.  Plus no more screaming when I brush it!!  YAY!  She actually wanted to take pictures!  I was pleasantly surprised, there was no bribing what so ever.  I had fun and just went with what she wanted to do.  Of course I tried to push her a little to far and get some images outside, but she was done.  Now Evan's haircut didn't turn out so well.  He was an angel, he sat still but for some reason it looks like he was moving all over the place during his haircut.  The stylist actually said he was the most well behaved baby he had ever seen.  Well, let's just hope it grows out fast.  I will post some pics when I can.  Here are some of A for now!

  




Holiday Newborn Girl

Meet beautiful newborn "R".  Not only is she absolutely gorgeous she is very smart too.  She was very aware of my presence, even at 5 days old.  She didn't want to sleep for us the first time around but in round two she slept and modeled perfectly for me. I love the little rolls she has already, don't you just want to pick her up and nuzzle her?  Thank you so much H and M  for being so easy to work with!  I really am so blessed to be a part of these magical and important moments in people's lives.  I seriously LOVE what I do.  Here are a few from the session.

Blue-eyed Beauty

6 month old baby "S" is just too precious and absolutely gorgeous.  Look at those eyes!  She is the sweetest little thing, so smiley and seriously perfect in every way.  I could have taken her home with me.  I photographed her when she was just a wee one as a newborn.   She graces the cover of the home page of my website.  Here are a few images from her 6-month photo shoot.  

Beautiful Newborn Boy!

Meet 11 day old newborn "S".  Isn't he just gorgeous?  Just look at that face!  This is getting a bit dangerous for me as my little guy just turned one.  Being around all these precious newborns makes me want another.  I was a bit nervous thinking we wouldn't be able get any bare baby shots because it was so chilly out, but once he fell asleep we were good to go.  I had such a wonderful time and it was great meeting this family, they are so proud of their new bundle of joy.  Thanks so much and here is a little sneak-peek for now!

Engaged

My Uncle is engaged and I was thrilled when they asked me to do their engagement pictures! These were shot in North Carolina (which is beautiful) and we just missed all the gorgeous foliage.  It was still very fallish though (which I miss living in Southern FL).  I haven't done an engagement session since I did my brother's last year!  They are always so much fun and I wish I could do more of them.  My family is so happy for them both and "K" will be an awesome addition to our family.  They make a wonderful couple and I am so excited for the upcoming wedding.  Here are just a few shots for now!  Thanks guys!! 

Baby's First Christmas

This little one is one of the happiest babies ever!  She is full of smiles and has the most adorable laugh.  I love her white crocheted outfit & bonnet, they both were handmade by her aunt.  I would love to have her knit me a few hats for my baby sessions, they are just precious!  Thanks for being such a sweetie Miss. S.  I'm so excited for your 1 year session in a few months!  

Family Session

What a fun family to photograph!  This was a very laid back session and I had a great time photographing this family of 4 on their beautiful property.  Everyone was so easy, I swear I photograph some of the most beautiful people and children!  This family lost their home and all their belongings (including their pictures) in a fire. When mom called to schedule a family session to put some portraits back on their walls I was thrilled and I think we captured some really fabulous shots. Thank you "S" family for choosing me, I'm so glad to be a part of this.  Here is a little sneak-peek for you!  

Senior Session

What a great time I had photographing these 2!  Just look at Miss. K and her boyfriend A (my cousin).  She's a beauty and he is a good looking fellow, which of course makes my job so much easier!  We were trying to get an urban feel to our images but had a hard time finding spots to create this in downtown Naples.  We were losing light pretty fast too, but I feel we managed to capture some fabulous shots!  Thanks guys, I look forward to shooting at the beach soon!  :)
