H Family Holiday Session | Tampa Bay Family Photographer

The H Family.  One of my all-time favorite families ever.  

I am incredibly honored to be able to call Mrs. H one of my best friends.  She's such a GORGEOUS person inside and out.  You may recognize her as the face of HAMILTON CREEK PHOTOGRAPHY.  She is the most talented photographer I've ever met -- her work, is drool worthy.  She's so giving and kind and funny.  Whether we're grabbing a cup of coffee, adventuring with the kids, or doing something photography related together, hanging with her is ALWAYS a good time!!  

And her guys... well I just love them too!! Mr. H is so fun and keeps us laughing the whole time... and G & R... well, they have such a special space in my heart.  They are two of Kalia's bestest buds.  They are the BEST boys. Adventurous life lovers, just like my girl!!! 

When we first started planning this session, we were going to shoot at my beach (yes... I refer to it as MY BEACH... because I love it so much) but they closed for the winter.. BOO!  But everything turned around when we went with H Family's new "front yard".  Okay.. so technically it's not THEIR YARD... but its gorgeous land RIGHT IN FRONT of the beautiful new home they are building! 

At the end of our session... we snapped a few of them as a family on their unfinished front porch! 

I am SO excited to see what the 2015 version of that picture will look like. 

"Z" Family Holiday | Tampa Bay Family Photographer

This family has such wonderful chemistry...  

Mom & Dad ... and even Brother & Sister (although I'm sure they have their sibling moments -- they were really sweet with each other)... they just have a really great vibe about them.  The kids were so well behaved and had the best smiles! It was such a pleasure meeting this family and look forward to seeing them again soon! 

Sweet Man E | Tampa Bay Newborn Photographer

To say that "E" has made his "grand entrance" would be the understatement of the year!  He has given his rockstar parents the most amazing story to tell.  Seriously... I still get goose bumps thinking about it!! And... that's as much as I can say -- not my story to tell! ;) 

I was so excited to get to snuggle up on this sweet baby and visit with the most adorable big sister ever (do you remember gorgeous A from her Birthday Session a few months ago?).  E had been doing nothing but sleeping since he was born... until I walked in the room.  He sure made us work for the shots we got (E's Grandma was the Baby Whisperer that day!!) -- but what we did get I am super in love with!!! 

H Family Holiday at Medard | Tampa Bay Area Family Photographer

I was so honored when the AMAZING Brooke Hamilton of Hamilton Creek Photography asked me to do her family photo session (seriously -- her work is to die for)! 

I really loved shooting their family.  The boys -- are delicious -- and those ties? Seriously? I die.  

It is definitely one of my most favorite family sessions I've ever had.
