Stephanie, Aaron + Family | 6.15.15 | Jacksonville Family Photographer

I worked with Stephanie + Aaron for their maternity session, then little Elliana arrived (and she is the happiest, prettiest baby ever...seriously) 

I was so excited to work these guys again plus their family this time! It was a scorching hot Florida day so we made it quick but all of these kiddos were so happy and well behaved, they made my job easy!

Beautiful family!

Warren, Sutton + Schaldecker Family | Jacksonville, FL Family Photographer

I have worked with the Sutton clan before (recently too! Go back a few blogs and check out Spencer + Sky and all their cuteness) But when Linda contacted me requested a large family portrait of the rest of the crew and extended family, I was super excited! These guys were so much fun and so so easy going. Families like this make my job so fun and everyone has fun during their session like it should be!

Enjoy their sneak preview below and Happy New Year! (First blog of 2015 - Yeah!)

Shannon, Andrew, Hunter + Hayden | Jacksonville Family Photographer

I met Shannon a month or two after I joined my gym, Crome in March and we became fast friends as our "Cromie" circle of ladies grew. She is such an inspiration to me on how strong she is inside and out and working out with her every morning along side these other ladies is something I look forward to every day at 9am. 

Needless to say I was so looking forward to her session with her family when she booked it. Her two boys and fiance, Andrew are absolutely the sweetest and their session took place in my back yard which has become a trend lately and I'm totally loving it. Even overcast our backyard has pretty light and a lush green backdrop and it makes my photog heart happy to say the least. 

Enjoy the sneak preview of some of the sweetest people I know and have the honor to call friends..

The Galloway Family | Jacksonville, FL Family Photographer

I met Heather a little over two years ago when I was shooting a wedding in California that she was in. This wedding was one I will never forget and every single person was so amazingly welcoming to me. The bride and groom were one of my favorites to this day, the wedding wedding party (including Heather) were my new besties within 10 minutes of me landing and getting off the plane and the family were just wonderful. It was literally a 48 hour experience of a lifetime with so much bonding and friendships formed. So now that Heather and her hubby, Mike have their little one Issac and live in Jacksonville - I was ecstatic when they wanted to do a session with me. Reunited and it felt like no time had passed honestly! Their little man was the happiest wiggle worm you will ever meet and I absolutely loved shooting their session in beautiful downtown Jacksonville. Enjoy their little sneak preview ;)

Ava is Four! | Jacksonville Child + Family Photographer

It feels like just yesterday I was shooting Ava's three year pictures and a year has somehow already passed. I have literally photographed this sweet girl since she was a few days old, through the first year and then every year to follow. Then her brother Zac came along and I documented his first year. Now baby Mia is on the way. I'm SO excited for Michelle and Francis. They have become such good friends to me and literally watching their family grow and shooting every session I do for them is an honor and a joy. 

It's finally in these pictures of her at four years old I see a little girl emerging and she is such a beauty and a goofball. 

I hope you enjoy her sneak preview as much as I enjoyed shooting and editing them.
