It's Beginning To Look a Lot Like Christmas!

Holiday shoots are a blast. This one was fun and creative. I love it when the kids go along with the crazy ideas I come up with. Especially when they are as cute as these two.

Of course we want to keep the actual Christmas Card a surprise... but I can't resist giving a sneak peek.

Of course this is my absolutely, positively, no question about it favorite picture of the day... I mean how can you not love this?!?!?! Look how pretty she is and could he be any cuter?!?!?!?!?!

Be nice... you definitely want to be on their Christmas Card list!

Not Fall But Still Beautiful

I loved going back home and shooting in the parks I played in as a child. I had hoped for it to look a little more fall-ish but the leaves didn't look like they had even thought about turning colors. So the background was more spring-ish but it was still a beautiful place to shoot.
And check out this good looking couple! Meet my Dad and Stepmom.

See?!?!? I told you they were good looking.
It was great to see you! We had a fantastic time and can't wait for you to come visit us.

One Fine Day!

It was a beautiful morning. There was a slight chill in the air - ok I admit it wasn't even really brisk - but by Florida standards it was Fall-ish. The sun was soft and gentle and there was a slight breeze. And I had the pleasure of sharing this first Fall morning with the Fine family. I have enjoyed watching these kids grow and capturing their bright personalities. For the past several years their family portraits have been taken at the beach or on their dock. This year they wanted something different. I think we accomplished that and we even found some water.

Thanks for letting me spend the first morning of Fall with you.
{And good luck picking your favorite. As you can tell I couldn't pick just one!}

I'm Back!

It was a whirl wind trip to Tulsa, Oklahoma for my Nana's 89th birthday party this past weekend. She had a great party with a lot of family and friends. I also got to shoot several Holiday Sessions - a couple in the park where I had my senior pictures taken. (How's that for full circle?!) And even though we didn't have the feeling and look of Fall it was a beautiful backdrop.

My mom is a volunteer curator of the Linnaeus Teaching Gardens and she gave me and my lil' Lu-Lu a guided tour. It is an absolutely amazingly gorgeous place... with waterfalls and lotus plants, cobblestone walkways and cotton plants, flowering annuals and festive perennials. If you find yourself in T-town stop by for a look around. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Through the doors of this cute little barn lays the most splendid garden. Lets take a look shall we?

I loved watching my mom show her favorite granddaughter (sorry sis) around the gardens. My mom has an amazing green thumb and this garden is proof of her knowledge and hard work.

See I told you it was an amazing place!

I have lots and lots and lots and lots of pictures from the trip to post so check back soon.
