Don't you just wish sometimes that time stood still? As we all know, it does not- though I do wish that I could bottle up and put it under my pillow for safe keeping. It seems like just the other day I was in the delivery room photographing Graham's birth (Actually, it seems like just the other day I was in the delivery room photographing his big brother's birth- and that was 2 years ago!) Now Graham is 7 months old and as precious as...
A Happy Holidays ADP Family! Since Christmas is just a few days away, I thought it was a perfect time to share this Holiday shoot I did with my long time client. I have done sessions for Donna and...

How ADORABLE is this four month old baby session?! This client of mine is coming in every month to capture her baby girl throughout her first year and after the year is up, she's including artwork...
How cute is this storyboard? My amazing clients, the "S" family, have created a storyboard from 3 months-12 months of their son, Will! This is great option for showing growth in the first year!
Oh how I adore this sweet family! I have been photographing the "B" family for YEARS now and I love seeing these cute little munchkins grow! They stopped into the studio for a Tampa Children's...
I just love me some Miss LilaBo! This cutie has been coming to me for portraits since she was just a tiny little thing and my studio was my backyard (literally)! We have had some great Tampa...

I love when clients come to me with new, fresh ideas! This session totally ROCKED! The look of this children's portrait photography session was inspired by fashion marketing ads that we constantly...
So, have you always had a fancy little camera (or just received one for Christmas) and haven't quite figured out how to use all of those buttons? Well, don't fret! I will be having a workshop to...
You asked for it, so we are bringing it back! We will be hosting another Take Better Pictures of Your Kids Workshop on Wednesday, January 21st at our south Tampa studio! Check out all of the deets...

Life as I would imagine it in the F. household is full of smiles, games, hugs, kisses, and maybe even some mischief (ok, definitely some mischief!). So I would expect the same thing when...
I have been photographing Oliver since he was in his mommy's tummy- and now he is over a year old! (I also get to photograph his baby brother now, too!) Every time I see Oliver, I really want to...

Stokes has captivated me ever since his first portrait session at 6 weeks old. He was so big and so smiley, even at a very young age. Now that he is 6 months old, he is even more interactive,...
Seriously...I am jealous of a 1 year old's closet! Is that right? I am sure it is not, but this little girl has a wardrobe to die for (and considering all I wanted for Christmas was an entire new...
I love watching siblings interact- especially at a portrait session. Clearly every family member has his/her own personality and I love the task of trying to capture it while we all interact...
It seems like I have been photographing alot of precious little boys recently, so it was fitting that my first little girl in a while be as beautiful as Ava. Boy, is her daddy going to be in...
Have I mentioned how little boys melt my heart? (see previous diary entry!) Well, Cannon and Owen take the cake! (and despite being a devoted Nikon shooter, I think the name Cannon rocks! ...
It's true. Little boys melt me, especially when they are as sweet with their mommies as the B. boys are! Maybe it is because I am the mommy of a little boy. Maybe it is because the children I am...
When it comes to sharing the love, the C. family has enough to go around ten times over. They are so in love with their baby girl, it makes me melt!I think it might be safe to say that Thea rules...
I have lived in Tampa since 1997, when I moved here for my college internship. I have lived in North Tampa and South Tampa and have photographed everywhere in between and the beaches. But I have...

Meet Ava and her mommy, Jocie, and daddy, Shane. Ava is 10 months old and on-the-go. So much so, that she actually started walking in my studio at her portrait session! What a great moment for...
I LOVE what I do. I get to capture moments in time- and see children grow and change right before my lens. I have been photographing Riley and Lucas since they both were babies. ...
Shy, sweet, kind, quite, smart, beautiful. In the short time I spent with Bella, these are just a few of the words that I learned to describe her (Am I right at all, Alphonsine??) I am huge...
And that she is! Being the mom of a little boy, I don't really get to play the whole princess role. But I did yesterday- and it was so fun! I had suggested to Isabella's mom...

I LOVE my job! I really do. Just take a look at some of the beautiful children I get to capture on film (ok, well not on film anymore...but you know what I mean!) I love seeing the...
It is such a shame that little Miss Sophie is so shy and introverted.   You can tell that there is a great, big ole' personality in there...she's just not sure how to let it out!OK, so...
Oh, to be a kid again! The adorable faces, the sweet smiles, the silly grins...the fabulous clothes (compliments of D's Darling Designs!) I think little Miss Olivia had an "inner ham" that...
I am always flattered when people travel to come to a photo shot with me. Weslyn and her mom came all the way from Lake City on a very, very cold morning to have her images captured. Very...
As promised, here are some more images from the Cricle of Friends winter trip from last week. (My PC just does not like me very much so I had to wait until I got back home to my beloved MAC!...
OK, so at 18 months old Sofia is not exactly all grown up, but since I have been photographing her since she was a newborn it is amazing to see how she has grown! She is non-stop, on-the-go, full...
There was something about Chloe that I simply adored! I think she reminded me a little bit of Ethan. A bit shy in new situations, sweet, calm and quite (though I am sure an innner wild child...
It's no secret that I love photographing 6 and 7 month olds! They are so animated and excited about their surroundings. And most of the time, they are not fast enough yet to run away from my...

So maybe I am the only photographer out there that feels this way...but photographing 2 and 3 years can be tricky (and I say this as the mother of a 2 year old!)Â They have their own little...
David, Daisy, Elise, Josh, and Jason...whew! I had such a good feeling at the H. home. It was a mix of happiness, familiarity (though it was our first meeting), and comfort. It's one of...

That's what kind of morning it was for little Mr. Trimble. He did not want both shoes on...or both shoes off! ha! So one on and one off is a great compromise, right? (Yes- it was a great...

Isn't that the coolest name? I LOVE it! This kiddo is destined for greatness- and stardom with a name like that, right?! What a beautiful family I had the opportunity to photograph in my South Tampa studio recently. Take a peak at some of my faves of Kierstin, Sam, and Diesel:So we all know I bleed orange and blue, but Sam does have a pretty impressive Alabama tattoo that we had to show off. If I was savy enough in photoshop, I would...
I got to spend the afternoon with the lovely Elinsky family and meet their newest addition! He is such cute little bundle of joy and I can tell that he will be getting a lot of love... especially...

When Stokes' mommy and daddy walked into my studio with this little bundle of joy, I thought surely I must have written down his age incorrectly. There was no way this big guy was only 6 weeks...

Not so much! Don't let these images fool you! My studio must have been very excting and new for little Miss Ciara as she slept for about 10 minutes. She was bright-eyed and bushy tailed...
When Stokes' mommy and daddy walked into my studio with this little bundle of joy, I thought surely I must have written down his age incorrectly. There was no way this big guy was only 6 weeks old. Well, he is. And to see how strong he is and his facial expressions- I still did not believe this kiddo was not at least 3 or 4 months old! (But I am pretty sure his parents were telling me the truth! ha!) Joy was an art major in college...

There is definitely something in the water...or a full moon....because it seems like 90% of all my clients have recently given birth (OK...so I am exaggerating...but you get my point! ha!) Meet Michael! Though he made his entry into the word with a little bit of a stubborn streak (would you say so, Barbara and Andrew?), I think his mommy and daddy quickly got over that and have embraced every second of their new baby boy! Michael also...

If you have welcomed a baby into the world, you are truly lucky! Babies provide us with such joy, and their innocence is more than enough to put a smile on our faces. Luckily, I have had the...
It such a joy to meet this sweet little baby and capture her one month images. I'm also super excited to continue to watch her grow as she will be coming in every month so we can create portraits of...

My heart filled to capacity in capturing these precious moments for previous Tampa wedding photography clients of mine, Nadiah and Ray. Cole and Kylie were just 10 days old and an absolute delight to...
It was tenth grade, Child Care class at good ole' Cooper City High School when Laurie and I first met- and the friendship was instant. High school drama, college drama, grown up drama- we have seen...
I feel like I was just standing in my driveway (though it was 9 months ago already) when Vicky said, "I took the test.....and I passed". YIPPEE! The test of course was no ordinary math test. It...
I recently had the pleasure of photographing sweet baby, Slayton, and her big sis, Marler. Like most newborn photo session, we had a lot of laughs, a lot of "aww's" and a lot of, well, poo. ...

Believe it or not, Sophia and Stokes (a few posts down), are the same age! But Sophia is a peanut compared to Stokes. So funny how babies can be so similar, but so completely different. This...
Isn't that the coolest name? I LOVE it! This kiddo is destined for greatness- and stardom with a name like that, right?! What a beautiful family I had the opportunity to photograph in my South...
When Stokes' mommy and daddy walked into my studio with this little bundle of joy, I thought surely I must have written down his age incorrectly. There was no way this big guy was only 6 weeks...
One of the very incredible things about my job is that I get to see children grow. I get to see families grow. I get to capture and document all of these changes for families to forever keep...

There is something so incredible about photographing newborns...their "freshness", their innocence, their flaky skin. I wonder how many full moons we have had recently because I have had so many...

Here it is...the big secret! Well, I guess it is not actually that big of a secret because I have been talking about this on my blog but I wanted to wait until everything was an official "GO"...
