Jacksonville, FL Maternity Photographer {Sherina | Bump}

You know those sessions you walk away from and just drive home in a fog because it was that amazing? Yeah, this was that kind of session. The entire time it felt like a dream. This gorgeous family was flawless. The kiddoes were adorable and mom and dad were just so amazingly in love that you could feel it in the air. It was one of my favorite sessions to date. I was so excited when they showed up and I saw their adorable coordinated outfits. I knew at that moment, magic was going to happen! And it did! We were able to not only get some maternity photos, but also included tons with the family, and also the kiddoes by themselves. A completely well rounded session, indeed!

We shot at one of my favorite locations on the St. Johns River in Arlington. The weather was just phenomenal that evening, though a bit hot. However, the sky decided to put on a show, and we captured some of my favorite silhouette bump images. Divine! Sherina looked like a goddess in her gorgeous dresses. I just can’t even say how in love with these images I am. I hope you enjoy them as well.

Jacksonville Beach, FL Engagement Photographer {A Beachy Engagement}

This gorgeous little family and I met up at Hanna Park a few weeks back for an absolutely beautiful engagement/family session. You may recognize the littlest guy here as I just photographed him with his newest stepsister a few months ago. When his mom contacted me and asked to do an engagement session, I was tickled pink. I love engagement sessions, and when you put engagement and the beach together, magic can happen. And magic did happen, I think.

I absolutely love shooting at Hanna Park and was super excited when mom, Jammie, decided on it as her spot for their engagement and family photos. When they showed up, I was so excited. They all looked gorgeous in their coordinating outfits. They chose more formal wear instead of the typical beach casual, and I love the juxtaposition of that. It totally worked.

We ended up shooting a few posed shots, and then I just let the happy couple enjoy some time together on the beach. I definitely love the real connection that I captured of these two lovebirds, and this family together. I think candids/lifestyle is my favorite.

Check out for yourself.

Jacksonville, FL Family Photographer {Grandma and Me on the Beach}

One of my favorite clients messaged me a few weeks back with an idea her mother in law had asked her about. Her mother in law was coming to visit the grandkids and wanted to do a Grandma and Me session. Well, you guys know how I love Mommy and Me sessions, so I was all for this. Grandma just wanted to get a couple shots of her and her grandchildren, and great grandma and her great grandchildren. We planned for an evening on the beach.

Then Florida weather happened and it rained all week, while they were visiting. There wasn’t an evening that week that it didn’t pour. So, we decided to just do the session in the am, instead of sunset, and just go with it. That’s one thing I love about my clients. They are all so chill and just roll with whatever needs to happen.

So we met up one morning at the beach. It was bright, it was hot, but we made it work. I love the look of these images. They are so bright and cheerful, to me. I hope you guys love them just as much!

Enjoy! and if you are interested in a Jacksonville, FL Family Photographer I’d love to work with you!

Jacksonville, FL Family Photographer {The R Family 2015}

I’ve photographed this family for about 5 years now and I can’t tell you how exciting it is when they book their yearly session. I love watching their little one (Not so little now!) growing up, and honestly, these guys are seriously a ton of fun. We laugh SO much during our sessions that I end up going home with a headache and my cheeks hurt from cracking up. This time, we actually didn’t let the end of the session end it for us, we went out to dinner together. I seriously love this family.

We met up for their sunset session at my new favorite spot in Arlington on the river. We’ve done so many locations before so far, so this was nice because they’ve never had their session done here. Working with a family so much, we started to run out of new places to shoot, so I found new spots. No worries, we’ll have a new spot next year.

For now, check out their 2015 session.

Jacksonville FL Family Photographer {Grayson is 1}

Its always a bittersweet session when one of my baby planner families comes to me for their little one’s first birthday photos. I so so enjoy watching these little guys grow, but I’m always so sad when we finish our last session because I know I won’t be seeing these kiddoes in just a few months.

Here’s a peek at Grayson, through the year:

and, our final session for his first year. Happy birthday little man. It’s been an honor watching you grow! <3
