I’ve had some clients wanting to schedule outdoor shoots towards the end of October, early November.  In trying to figure out what time of the evening would have the best light – I first needed to figure out when Daylight Saving Time ends.  I found this great link that told me what I needed to […]

Yesterday I had the privilege of photographing a little 3 week old baby boy.   When mom called to schedule, we discussed the pros and cons of doing the shoot here in the studio vs. at her house.   I love both.  The hard part about the studio is that babies usually don’t sleep for me.  Being […]

One of the specialty items I offer is what I call an Expressions Collage.  This is a 4×10 collage mounted on white mount board and displayed with an easel.  Most of the time this is perfect for 4 different facial expressions of your child.   But tonight I was playing around with some of Sydney’s images […]

Last weekend I got to see one of my favorite little boys.  He’s a member of the Little Miracles Club, so this was my third shoot with him.  I love when I get to see how much and how quickly they change just in the first year!  And he is one of the easiest little […]

Ok – so these really ended up being her almost 19 month portraits. I mentioned before how nervous I was about doing this shoot. My daughter COMPLETELY ignores me when I have a camera in my hands. And she usually walks or runs the other direction when she sees me playing paparazzi. So I was […]

Need something to do this Friday night? Join me downtown this Friday October 5th for Lakeland’s First Friday celebration. This is a monthly event, but October’s theme is a focus on local artists. To quote: "The October First Friday will introduce a renewed focus on local artists, both visual and performing, around Downtown during First […]

Finally!  The last of my shoots from the past month.  Here’s another beautiful family with a little 2 month old.  Again, she wouldn’t give me any smiles (for the most part), but we got some very sweet family shots, and one final smile shot at the end! Finally – the smile!  

As promised – just a little late – here are the last two shoots I’ve done in the past month that I haven’t posted yet.   This house project is all consuming!  Anyway…meet the ‘J’ family.  This sweet lady works with my mother-in-law.  My MIL is actually one of this little guy’s god-mothers.  He was born […]

I’ve gotten behind again with sharing highlights from some of my recent sessions.  I will post more in the next few days, but before I head to bed, I wanted to share some images from my first twin session!  These cutie pies belong to the nursery director at my church, so I get to spend […]

No I was not selected to receive a new home from ABC, but I have been busy giving the main living areas of my house an extreme makeover.  Any of you that have had a studio shoot with me know that my studio is in my dining room.   There are many advantages to having an […]
