Zac At Nine Months | Jacksonville Family Photographer

If you follow WHP then you've probably have seen this little man's progression series (and his sister, Ava before him). Well, Zac is already nine months and his next session is one year. Insane how quickly time flies! This family has become great friends of mine over the past three and a half years of shooting their crew grow (and they aren't stopping at two - so I can't wait to see them grow even more). 

I plan a blog post in the future dedicated to just these guys and all the sessions I've had through the years for them...because let's face it they create cute children and I've literally watched them both grow. Oh and they are an awesome mom + dad. That deserves a blog post all their own ;)

Enjoy Zac at nine months. He's seriously the cutest. 

Spencer | Jacksonville Kids Photographer

I had worked with Spencer back in 2011 (time flies. It's crazy!) And his mom and dad wanted some updated pictures of him. This boy is such a sweetheart. I can't say it enough. So funny and such a ham to work with, every time. I made his mama jump in a few shots at the end of the session and I loved how they came out too. Enjoy the cuteness below :)

The Preza Family | Jacksonville Family Photographer

I adore the Preza family. Jessie contacted me over two years ago just as a client (and fellow photog!) who needed family pictures and after we worked together for their session we became friends and even closer as time went on. Jessie was the one who designed our wedding invitations and all our amazing paper goods at our wedding and I'm still obsessed with them to this day. She is such a talent with photographer (I love love love her interior work so much), web and paper design as well as her venture with her hubby and kids called Salty Kidz! Such a great idea and for a good cause. Check out their website for it here: www.saltykidz.com 

Here is a quick sneak peak of a few shots I did of their family session yesterday. We didn't have ideal lighting, it was in the 40 degree range and windy but we made it work. They are such a beautiful family, that really, I couldn't go wrong :)

The Long Family | Jacksonville Family Photographer

I worked with the Long family about three years ago (time seriously flies) and in those three years their little boys have grown so much and are such little sweethearts! Dawn loved the Treaty Oak location I had shot at before with a huge 200+ year old oak tree which is truly unreal in person. Cooler weather + pretty light + beautiful family = a happy photographer and this beautiful session filled with fun and family love.

Zac At Six Months Old | Jacksonville Family + Child Photographer

Zac is already six months old! 

One of the best things about my job other than being apart of photographing someone's  wedding day is seeing their family grow after. The Ablola family is near and dear to me. I started with shooting their first born, Ava's "watch me grow" series with; newborn, three month, six month, nine month and twelve month sessions. I would also shoot sessions at different milestone ages after that and family sessions too. Then little Zac came along a few years later and his "watch me grow" series began. So this is month six already - only one more milestone to go before one year. Watching this family grow and becoming friends with them in the process (they are pretty awesome ;) has been an honor and privilege of mine. I really love my job and I am blessed to be doing what I'm doing, with such great people and kiddos. Enjoy the cuteness below...if you can even handle it. (I'm going to need one of those mustache pacifiers when Ben and I have babies...yup it's happening)
