Let me start by saying that I love what I do. I feel so very blessed to be able to stay home with my kiddies and also be a photographer. I love being able to catch those sweet and sometimes awkward moments of life on camera for people to cherish. My favorite shots are the [...]

Our friends, Aaron and Bonnie recently came for a visit. They moved from Jax right about when Bonnie found out she was pregnant. And now, their little bambina, Campbell Piper, is 9 months! Time FLIES! It was such a wonderful visit with them. We even had a chance to get in a family session at [...]

Last Thursday, we went to the opening night of Disney On Ice Toy Story 3 at the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena. We had so much fun! My friend and I took some of our daughters and surprised them. They were ecstatic! I hadn’t been to an ice show since I was a young girl. I [...]

In addition to having a wonderfully relaxing time with our friends in Guadalajara a few months back, we got to see some of the city. It was so incredibly beautiful! I fell in love with all the shops that lined the streets filled with handmade pottery and blankets and such. Oh, and this levitating [...]

Following our visit home a couple months ago, Brandon and I went to Guadalajara with one of my best friends to celebrate and shoot her amazing wedding. Heather and Alejandro and a couple handfuls of their friends and family all met in Guadalajara for H & A’s marriage. It was the first vacation that B [...]

I know this Christmas post is a wee bit late. I’ve been super busy over the past few months. So, I’m finally catching up on my sadly neglected blog. I had the opportunity to do Christmas pictures for the lovely Jaeger family. If their name looks familiar, it’s because they were here on the blog [...]

I recently had the opportunity to do the band photos for Terry Parker High School. I had a great time! The kids were awesome. They sure knew how to have a good time! I had a great time with the band! If you are in need of band pictures, let me know. Email me at [...]

‘Tis the season and not a minute too soon! Now is the time to get those Christmas photos done before the craziness of the season starts. Book one of the FIVE spots available and you will have a 30 minute session on location, get 10 images on CD with reprinting rights and three 8×10 images. [...]

Meet this sweet little nugget of love. His parents are Tina and Troy. He’s such a sweet little baby. I’ll tell you, photographing newborn bebes always makes me want another for myself. They’re just so sweet and lovable! Congratulations, again, to Troy and Tina! May you have many years of all the joys that children [...]

Recently, I had the opportunity to meet Carlos and Jordan and their sweet baby boy. They had a beautiful wedding with family attending and the timing couldn’t have been better for the pictures. They were married at Jordan’s cousin, Amy’s, house. Amy and Jerry’s house is cozied up to the water with the most amazingly [...]

If you live in the Jacksonville, Florida area and have never gone to Loscoe Park, you need to put it on your to-do list. It’s amazingly beautiful! The gorgeous oak trees with the branches so low that your kids can play on them as swings mixed with the amber light right before the sun goes [...]

You know how the saying goes…k.i.s.s.i.n.g! Last year my oldest child, Bailey, entered kindergarten for the first time. I was nervous because I didn’t really know what to expect for her. She wasn’t nervous, though. It seems like it’s always that way, doesn’t it? The parent is nervous and the child is fine, if not [...]

I recently had the chance of doing a session for some friends of ours. The Bunsos are neighbors of ours and we go church together, too. It’s really nice to have friends close by who have kids around the same age as my kids. It’s been fun getting to know them this past year. Their [...]

Do you ever have those days when everything just falls into place? The festivities are set, the sunlight is PERFECT, there’s a chill in the air, but it’s just enough to feel warm and cozy in your layered clothing. The day that I shot Justin and Hannah was just that! It was perfect weather, the [...]

I recently met Heather, who is a fellow MLMer. Heather and Derek have a little cutie named Haley. Haley was a crack up! She kept me entertained while doing their family photos, that’s for sure. She was totally fascinated with everything that passed us along the street, especially the cars. She just kept waving to [...]

The other day the kids and I were in Target (shocker, I know) and they wanted to look at the Halloween costumes. While I was looking for a costume for Pip, Justice found this hot dog costume laying on the shelf and off of it’s hanger. Of course, he immediately put it on. It was [...]

Jonathan and Jezmyn Meide got married last month in gorgeous Greece and then came home and had a cocktail party for their reception. Brilliant, I tell you. And I’m not just saying that because that’s what my husband and I did almost 9 years ago. Well, we didn’t have a cocktail party, but we did [...]

I recently flew back home to go to the memorial for my friend, Amber, and one of the greatest things to come of this short and emotional trip was the birth of Francis Raye Carey! My friends, Heidi and Jon, were expecting baby Francis and it just so happened that she was born in perfect [...]

Last weekend I met up with the Lofton family to take Kyli’s one year pictures. She is THE most adorable little girl! I love the one year mark for babies, er, I mean little ones. They aren’t quite babies anymore, but they’re not quite full blown toddlers either. They are still in that stage of [...]

Last weekend I attended a press event at Disney World with my family and other media personnel from Florida. It was AMAZING! There are many new things added to Disney World for the Summer Nightastic event. One of the big ones is the return of The Main Street Electrical Parade! This is the parade that [...]

A couple weekends ago I met up with Jennifer and we did some headshots for her. Again, it was a beautiful day. The sun was shining, it wasn’t too hot or too cold. What more could we ask for? We walked around near Riverside in downtown Jax. It’s a good thing she was leading the [...]

A few friends and I were invited to go to the First Coast News studio to attend a meet and greet with Mario Lopez and Shannon Miller. Mario and Shannon were there supporting a weight loss program through First Coast News called Kick It Up First Coast. It was a really fun afternoon! I learned [...]

So, Bailey lost one of her big front teeth on Christmas Eve. Her papa pulled it for her and the other front one has been super loose FORVER, but she won’t let any of us pull it. She INSISTED that she wanted to pull it. Finally, on Monday night it was so loose that she [...]

This sweet baby girl is Scarlett. It’s her first Christmas. I had the privilege to take pictures of Scarlett, her mama Elizabeth, and dad John two weeks after she was born. It was such a joy to take the family Christmas pictures for them as well. Time sure does fly when you’re having kids…I mean, [...]
