Matty and Family..

One of my absolute favoite kinds of shoots is when I get to come into a family's home and just photograph them doing the "mundane" things that make their lives so special and personal. So when Christina contacted me about photographing her, her husband Michael, and their son Matty, I jumped at the chance! Christina is pregnant with their next son, so it was a special time of preparing for the new baby.

I LOVE the new baby's nursery! I think I need her to come decorate for me the next time.

I thought Christina was just gorgeous.














One of Matty's favorite things is to sit in the chair and "talk" on the phone - how cute is he??




Another family favorite activity is to wrestle/snuggle in their bed... there's nothing funnier than a bouncing toddler :)




Yeah, so the snuggling didn't last long :)










They have this amazing home theatre, aka a "man cave"!


Then it was outside for some fun.












And finally dinner! What kid doesn't like spaghetti!






Apparently dogs like it, too :)

Thank you so much for letting me come and document your lives! You are a beautiful family :)

Lindsey and Ryan are Engaged!

I love living in Melbourne.. but I have to admit it isn't exactly the most exciting place to live from a photography standpoint. So I was extra excited when Lindsey and Ryan asked me to photograph their wedding in my hometown of Jacksonville! Their wedding is in October, so we met up recently in St. Augustine to shoot their engagement photos. I loved getting to shoot in a "new" place, and Lindsey and Ryan were a lot of fun and great sports.







I loved how playful they were together.. this one makes me smile ;)








This one makes me feel a little guilty - like I shouldn't be looking!

























Thank you Lindsey and Ryan for hanging out with me! I enjoyed meeting you, and can't wait for your wedding.

Congratulations Keith and Amanda

A few weeks ago I had the honor of photographing Keith and Amanda's wedding. The two had their ceremony on the beach, followed by a reception at the Cocoa Beach Country Club. The other amazing vendors included Eau Gallie Florist, Simply Delicious Cakes, and Celebration DJs.

I hope you like the photos, and the slideshow at the end.


This was taken right after the ceremony; I love how happy Amanda looks!













Congratulations you two! Thank you for letting me be a part of your day!
