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. 

Waiting on Sweet Baby E | Tampa Bay Maternity Photographer

These two are expecting their very first bundle of joy... a sweet baby girl.... in January.  We had the most gorgeous weather for our beach maternity session.  The water was so still and the sky was so clear! 

B & W were the sweetest.  I loved working with them & can't wait to see them again in January for their newborn session. 

Perfectly PINK skies for their precious baby girl.  

Hunter Pup | Tampa Bay Lifestyle Photographer

Just a sweet pup and his girls.  

Hunter Pup went to Pup Heaven shortly after these pictures were taken.  I'm so glad that I was able to spent time with our friends and their pup before he left.  He was such a wonderful dog & I know he will be missed terribly.  

Kelly & Sean | Tampa Bay Couples Photographer

These two are such a great couple! They have such fantastic chemistry and are just so fun to be around!! They were up for adventure and exploring one of my most favorite parks!! I always find myself shooting littles and not wanting to wander too far off the beaten path -- so much fun the stuff you can get into with adults! ;) 

And who says we don't have Fall in Florida???
I mean... we don't -- but this picture reminds me of Fall.  

1/2 Year Gone | Tampa Bay Area Children's Photographer

Our sweet little Noa turned 6 months on September 17th (yes, I realize that was almost a month ago). We took her 6 month pictures, but it's tend us a little bit of time to come around to blogging it.  I wanted to do a little more then just the sticker pictures that we've done for her other months -- and now that I have everything that I want, it was time to blog.  

Raspberries.  Always.  

Those chunky little thighs kill me.  I just want to eat them up! 

Yummy headband from Monroe & Harlow. 

Kalia's new favorite things:  tilting her head to the side and saying "awwww" & roaring.  

Also... "so big".  

An attempt at a self portrait of me nursing Noa with the timer ... out of focus, but I love it!
