Ava is Five! | Jacksonville Child Photographer

I remember meeting and shooting with little Ava when she was less than a week old and doing countless shoots through the years with her (and her siblings as well as mom and dad). I can't get over the fact that she already FIVE! I have come to love her and this family so very much and they are so dear to me to have me literally capture all of their children grow up. Ava wanted to be seven different princesses for her five year shoot and we had such a blast. 

Now hopefully the next year doesn't go by too fast before the six year shoot!

The Galloway Family | Jacksonville Family Photographer

I always absolutely love working with these guys. I can't believe it's already been about a year since our last session! Here is a little sneak preview with more to come soon!

Donna + William | Jacksonville, FL Elopement Photographer

Donna contacted me about shooting pictures for her and her fiance after they eloped together a few days after their intimate ceremony with just the two of them and the notary. They were on a very short time frame to be able to do them because they were moving due to William being in the military. I had an open Monday and we all crossed our fingers for no rain and sure enough it was one of the most beautiful, not hot, not rainy days we have had in a while here in Florida. 

(Bring on the Florida fall! I am so ready for layers and boots!)

These two were so cool and laid back and we had a blast wandering and taking pictures on such a gorgeous day. I am so glad all the stars aligned for beautiful weather and I was able to shoot these pictures before them before they start their new life together after the move. 

Congratulations to the newlyweds!

Kristina + Mike | Part One | Jacksonville, FL Engagement Photographer

After Kristina + Mike's St. Augustine engagement session plan got rained out numerous times (Florida won't give us a break this summer, I swear), we decided to do "part one" of their session at their home for a mix of a more dressy and snazzy set up and then relaxed and cozy session with champagne and their precious pooch Winston (aka Winnie!). I absolutely love these two and I am so beyond excited for their wedding next March at Casa Marina. I already know most of their wedding party and after hearing all of Kristina's plans and details... I know this wedding will be absolutely stunning (and a blast to photograph with this crew!)

The original plan for downtown St. Augustine will happen eventually, so stay tuned for part two ;)
