A recent session that felt like home!

I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful senior recently. She and her family moved here from California and miss the rural life they left behind. When it came to identifying a location for her portraits, this lovely old home came to mind. Even though it is a restaurant now, it's charm is amazing -we had so much fun!

Here is your slide show! So many of her portraits reflect the lovely young woman I meet that day. I hope you all are as pleased as I am! Enjoy

A Patriot and his family

I photographed this family a few weeks ago. They were visiting her family in Orlando before dad left for a tour of Afghanistan. His boys were proud and so great to photograph. Mom was really a trooper and I am in awe of women like her who keep the home fires burning while their spouse is away keeping our country safe!

I am posting a few portraits from their session - this was a very cold day but sunny. Shivering and blue lips was a fear but no problem as it turned out! We walked to a creek at the back of their property and it was old Florida at it best. I felt like I'd found a gold mine. My favorites -shots of all the boys on the tractor. sometimes I am so pleasantly surprised during location sessions! Thanks again, you guys -you are a very special family.

A very cool senior, her puppy and cold temperatures!

All summer while we sweltered taking senior pictures, we dreamed of cold winter days. This session, right after the first of the year, was cool and more -it was quite cold!

Our senior was a trooper, though and wore all the clothes she had picked out- even summer ones- including a shirt and cap from her university of choice. She was such a good sport to wrap up in a multicolored blanket which looked stunning with her hair and eyes. We even went down to a nearby lake and took a few last minute shots as the sun went down, casting a glow in her hair.

She also brought her puppy, the most adorable thing ever! She shivered a bit but luckily, it didn't show in the photos -I worried a little that her cute little face would be a blur. Hope you enjoy the slide show! Please click here
