I'm in the middle of editing this GORGEOUS wedding and had to get a little sneak peek up here!  Such a sweet couple and beautiful day. :)  Congratulations Amanda and Keith...more photos coming soon!

I have that itch again (not from a fire ant!)...I'm ready to go on a trip and explore!  I'm currently sitting at my computer editing and retouching projects and off to the side I have my husband's laptop with Pinterest up while I search for photos of where to go next. :)  I've already calculated the cost and when would be the cheapest time to fly, the big question is where...?  Not really where I want to go, because I want to go everywhere, but where can I convince my husband we should go? ;)   He takes a lot of convincing, so I've taken to texting him photos everyday of various options. So...

Here is a little series of portraits from my last three sessions with this lovely family.  We started out with a Christmas maternity session at Koreshan State Park.  A couple months later I got a few quick shots at the hospital after Baby Girl #2 was born!  A week after that, beautiful baby Elise came in for her portraits and then when she was two months we got the whole family together (or at least at my studio at the same time :) ). I absolutely love seeing families grow...just six years ago we were taking their engagement portraits and here they are now with two gorgeous girls.  Congratulations...

So my beautiful friend, Leann who I've known since high school (which was just a few years ago, or so...yikes!) is getting married...to Jeremy, who she met in high school!  YAY!  I'm so pumped for this wedding, they are such a sweet couple! We headed to Koreshan State Park to take their engagement and family photos with Jeremy's two adorable kiddos.  :)  The only instructions I was given before our session began was from Leann who said she would NOT do any "Baywatch Running" photos.  So that dates back to another mutual friend's wedding when I made the bridal party do the "Baywatch Run" for (what...

We took a little break from beach sessions to capture Amanda and Anthony's engagement portraits in downtown Fort Myers.  I just love how versatile the River District can be.  And this smoking hot couple was a blast to work with...so photogenic and easy-going! Congratulations Amanda and Anthony...your upcoming wedding(s) are going to be amazing, I'm positive of that. :)  Cheers!

Loved this wedding!  It was such a fun group and they make my job easy to just capture the day as it unfolded.  I'm currently finishing up their wedding album which reminded me to hurry up and get these images up here. Congratulations Lauren & Michael!  :)

The summer weather is pretty much here in FL, so as I look back over this winter engagement session I shot last month in Ohio, I somewhat long for a little cooler weather.  I'm sure all you Northerners are longing for the warmer weather..so all I can say to that is COME ON DOWN! :) This session was special for two reasons.  One, this is my drop dead gorgeous sister-in-law!  And two, I have been dying to do a shoot in the snow!  But wow, was it cold.  Props to Courtney and Kyle for dealing with the frigid weather for the photos.  I definitely think you two should come down here now so you can replace...

I can't get over how cute these two little kiddos are!  And they were so sweet with each other for the whole shoot, I'm sure they never ever fight! ;)  Here are a few of the photos that made me smile...

And once again...I'm a little late on posting these portraits.  :-/  I enjoyed meeting this family very much.  Both the parents work in creative fields which made it really fun knowing they had a creative eye too.   In fact, Gretchen is an amazing painter..check her out: http://www.pawpalettes.com/home . As I was looking through these I realized one of the locations is no more.  The new restaurant, Firestone, has painted the brick wall.  Crazy how downtown Fort Myers keeps changing, but it really looks great!
