Liz & Jory are expecting a tiny little addition to their sweet family and I loved planning their maternity session with Liz! She wanted a warm, beautiful, golden hour outdoor session with their family but also some in their beautiful home with natural window light. So we did both, and I love how it turned out!! These are just a few of my personal favorites with Liz, Jory, and their son Quinn. Can not wait to see them as a family of 4!!

Jessica and Matthew's wedding at the Florida Aquarium was a vibrant tapestry of joy, where every detail reflected the hues of the rainbow, literally! Jessica's custom-made rainbow satin gown was a surprise for Matthew as he had no idea what she had chosen.

I’ve got sneak peeks from our annual session with this beautiful family! I’ve known them since before Regina was born and Leo was just a little guy. Now he’s in 8th grade!! Hyde Park Village is one of my favorite spots for family photos, that fountain reminds me of the fountains in New Orleans and Charleston.

We recently had the honor of photographing the lovely and talented team of ladies from Coastal Coordinating at Sunken Gardens. Cayla, one of their lead planners was in charge of creating a style and vibe that goes along with their brand. I love the champagne and sparkly neutral color palette she chose to go along with the beautiful outdoor gardens.

There are moments in life that we wish we could freeze in time, and for the Mears family, Philippe Park in Safety Harbor, Florida, was a chance to do just that. The last time I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family, their young son was just a 5-year-old little boy. Fast forward to today, and while Deborah and Erick look literally the same, he has transformed into a tall and confident middle schooler, embarking on an exciting new chapter of his life.

I was so happy go get to photograph the Madden family again, as they welcomed another adorable addition to their family. The last time I had the pleasure of capturing their precious moments was during Madison's newborn session. Now she has been promoted to the role of big sister to this handsome little guy, Jack.

Ellen and Tripp's engagement session at Hyde House Public Studio was a perfect blend of elegance and love. Florida's heat led us to do an indoor location, where Hyde House's lavish decor and furnishings provided a stunning backdrop. I am obsessed with those giant wooden octagon doors that close and turn into a wall.Ellen and Tripp's engagement session at Hyde House Public Studio was a perfect blend of elegance and love.

As a photographer, I've always been drawn to the interplay between elements in a setting and how they interact with the colors and style of a photograph. Every wedding or session presents an opportunity to create visual harmony by carefully selecting and positioning elements within the frame, paired with the setting to create stunning and cohesive compositions.

Suncoast Wedding & Event Leaders is one of my favorite industry groups to be a part of here on the west coast of Florida. I had the honor of photographing the Summer Summit which was a day full of networking and amazing education by key industry leaders hosted by the Longboat Key Club.

I could literally write a book about this one but I’m going to try and keep it to the main parts! After I graduated from college I took a job in the north suburbs of Chicago and had a great group of friends and church I attended there. My very first mission trip I went on was to the Philippines and my friend AC was on that trip.

Meet Miss Madelynn Mae!! This session with her, Matt and Kim made me so happy. I just love sweet moments with new parents, you can literally see how much they love and adore her. Can we talk about how cute her nursery is? It’s sloth and adventure themed and Matt came up with the whole thing!! I am obsessed with that wallpaper.

James is from Ohio and loves Ohio State so Carolease took his love for scarlet and grey and made that their color palette, he even had OSU cufflinks wedding band. You really can’t go wrong with roses they are timeless and beautiful.

You might see this session and think, hmmm there’s more then a couple in there:-) We actually do a lot of engagement sessions that are also family sessions which I absolutely adore! Alicia and David's engagement session at Julian B Lane Park in downtown Tampa was a celebration of their love and the beautiful journey they've embarked on as a family.

Looking back, I realized that Anne has been my client since 2012! Over the years, I've had the pleasure of capturing several headshots and branding sessions for her. She always told me that when she and Bill got engaged, I would be her go-to photographer. And guess what? On June 10, 2023, their special day finally arrived at the stunning Urban Stillhouse in St. Pete.

Planning an engagement session that perfectly captures a couple's love and personality literally one of my favorite things!! When Maria, Wilmy, and I were talking through their vision for a classic and neutral toned vibe, I knew we were about to create something truly special. The combination of Le Meridien's magnificent steps and the picturesque views of Curtis Hixon Park was simply perfect for their session.
