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

Jacksonville, FL Family Photographer {Penelope is 1!}

Okay, I’m just gonna admit it. This session is one of my all time favorites. I had SUCH a hard time trying to cull these images down to the ones that I would edit because they were just all. so. good. Sweet little Penelope was a true doll. She was so smiley and happy. I just wanted to take her home with me. She is precious.

We met up at one of my favorite areas in the Arlington area for a family/1 year session and cake smash. Miss Penelope really put on a show. She giggled, she smiled, she posed, she just rocked it. From the first second that we placed her on my antique rocking horse to the moment we were all cleaning her up from her cake smash, she was all smiles.

I hope you enjoy this session as much as I did photographing and editing these. There are so many photos, but I just couldn’t cut any out!

and of course, the cake smash. What 1 year birthday session would be complete without it?

Jacksonville, FL Family Photographer {Extended Family at Walter Jones}

This family contacted me with an urgent request. They were moving to another state and wanted photos done with their family here before they left. I had an opening for that weekend, so we scheduled. Then, of course this being Florida, the forecast called for rain. Rain, rain and more rain. We were so nervous that our one and only shot to do these photos would be rained out. I rushed to the location, and parked, and then the skies opened up. It poured. Then, the sun came out. Then it went away again. Then back out. Then more rain. It was just another regular crazy Florida summer storm.

We decided to just do it anyway. It was so hot and muggy, and the sun kept going in and out, but nevertheless, we all had SUCH a fun time. We played, we joked, we laughed a lot. The kids even got a yummy treat at the end of the shoot because they were rockstars.

I hope this family looks at these photos and remembers all the fun they had living here in Jacksonville, FL, and I hope they remember this session as the perfect way to end their time here.

Enjoy!

Jacksonville, FL Homecoming Photographer {Daddy’s Home}

When this mom contacted me to book her husband’s homecoming she made sure to mention that it was going to be big. I’ve done homecomings quite a few times before, and I was all “Oh yeah, I got this.” However, when the day came for the homecoming I realized that when she meant big, she meant massive. This was quite possibly the biggest homecoming I’ve ever witnessed, and definitely the biggest ship. It was such an adrenaline rush to be a part of this homecoming. You could feel the joy and excitement. I always cry at homecomings, and this one was absolutely no different. When those kiddoes spotted daddy, I welled up. It was, just, perfection. A perfect (albeit hot) day.

Welcome home!!!
