This little one surprised us back in November by arriving ahead of schedule and it seems as though we have not been able to catch up since then!  My boys are growing at lightening speed and time keeps passing with the blink of an eye.  We are enjoying the ride, fast as it may be, and surfacing whenever possible…

Until we meet again, here’s a few of my kiddos for you to enjoy (the littlest, Charlie, has changed quite a bit since the above photo) and also a few from some of the adorable clients I have had the pleasure of working with-  Enjoy and happy Saturday to you!!

These next few are a few of my favorites… how great would these look blown up, printed and hung together on the wall.  Seriously folks, these kids are precious- just precious!

Enjoy a few of my favorites from the shoot :)

We had to be creative about their engagement photographs- their ideal location would have been somewhere in near Asheville in the mountains however, having a toddler and being 5 months pregnant makes destination photography a little more difficult. So we opted to do the photographs when they were in town for the family beach vacation.  After thinking for a while we decided that we might be able to get some field/ non-palm tree location out near the Econolochatchee River.  The plan was to head to there shortly after getting home from vacation and grab our photos.  Unfortunately (or fortunately- depending on how you look at it) we got rained out.  I was able to grab a few photos from under the umbrella (held by Jamie) of them playing in the rain so the trip wasn’t a complete waste but we tried again early the next morning before they drove home to Asheville.  I love the way the photographs turned out in both locations (some of the rain photographs are my absolute favorites); however, it might have something to do with how much I like the subjects ;)

So here’s  a peak- enjoy!

Two of my favorites taken from under the umbrella during a traditional Florida rain… there is love with these two rain or shine!

I met Whitney, her adorable sister-in-law and Mr. E at Park Ave a few weeks back to get some shots of Mr. E.  Not having babysitting that morning (it was early during the week) I decided to backpack Jay while we shot.  He did a great job although I did eventually let him down so he could run free and play with his buddy.

I love the way these turned out, Whitney, and am looking forward to doing it again sometime!

The ceremony and reception took place at Jessica’s family home making it intimate and full of southern charm.  The house, situated on a beautiful lake, was a perfect place for these two to get married; beautifully decorated with flowers and personal touches everywhere you looked making their day that much more unique and special.  The food was fabulous and let me tell you this group really knows how to throw a party!  People danced well into the night, enjoyed each other’s company and then rallied on the dock for a send off around the lake in their boat.

Congratulations Jessica and Garrett, I am so happy for the two of you!

Jessica and Garrett choose to see each other before the ceremony, the dock on the lake was the perfect setting for this special moment!

I love this one of Jessica's Dad and matron of honor peeking out the window during the portraits!

It’s been so great to see these little ones grow this last year, but it really feels like I was just shooting their newborn shoots and baptisms.  Why oh why do little ones have to grow SO quickly?!?
