Portraiture

Here's Rachel and Willie...or should I say Barbie and Ken? Such a beautiful couple, we had so much fun in downtown Fort Myers capturing these images. I loved the props Rachel brought too...since her husband is a baseball player it seemed appropriate to include some baseball gloves and ball.  And the frame with there special dates...I love this idea whether you include it in a photo or not!  She told me she saw the idea on Pinterest. Mind you I have been holding out for a long time on not joining Pinterest only because everyone tells me that they spend hours on there...I don't have hours to do that! ...

Today is mass editing day!  Trying to get to quite a bit of editing that is piling up, but...in between editing, just wanted to throw a few photos up here from some of my latest shoots.  These two sisters are such adorable subjects!  While the little one was having a bit of a rough day, the older hammed it up!  Seriously so cute! Yes...towards the end of the shoot, it was getting pretty tragic for someone!  Such huge crocodile tears!

Here's to a week all about LOVE! All of my photoshoots this week have been couples - ranging from boyfriend/girlfriend, engaged, married for 8+ years and married for 50 years (awesome!).  I thought it was fitting that they all happened to have their sittings the week of Valentine's Day.  And in between shoots, I finished up this gorgeous couples print order and once again realized I haven't posted any from their sitting (not surprising, right?! Haha, I'm trying to blog more!). Anyway...here they are! Such an awesome couple, and I'm totally jealous of her super-sweet southern accent (would it be weird...

I have to post a few of these!  My niece, who should be the easiest subject for me to photograph, always makes me work the hardest!  When she was here for her last visit I begged her to let me take a few photos in her owl hat she got for Christmas.  I also bought her the fur vest, but she politely declined the gift! Haha...I guess we don't have the exact same taste!  At least I got her to wear it for a few photos (and yes, I did try to squeeze myself into the vest because I LOVE IT, it didn't work though...).  She's also been losing her teeth, so we naturally had to capture a few toothless...

I feel old.  This wonderful young man I can actually remember when he was a baby.  He has always been my dear friend's little brother...and now he has grown up! Where does the time go?  I fear there may be many more posts like this, haha! Anyway, it was a joy to do Joshua's senior photos.  I had a lot of fun and Josh..well he was super patient.  I can't imagine that taking senior photos is many guys highlights, but I'm excited he hung in there until the end!  We covered a lot of ground in the River District (which by the way is decorated for Christmas already, yay!!) and then finished up in my studio. ...

What a beautiful evening for beach photos at South Seas Resort.   I love it went it runs smooth and hard not to with such great subjects.  Ahhh... I love my job! :-)  And on that note, just a little reminder...book now for your family holiday photos.  Weekends are scarce this time of year and our daylight is getting shorter and shorter!  But the weather is beautiful, got to love this time of year in Florida!  And Gillian - your family is precious!  I thoroughly enjoyed photographing your lovely family and meeting you all!  I look forward to next time!

Here are a few quick photos of Scott we did a month or so ago in my studio.  I currently trying to sort through all these shoots from the past 6 months and catch up on blogging!  I thought I would start with this one because it is time for seniors to get their portraits taken!  We are still running our Senior Special (HALF PRICE SITTING FEE!) from now until the end of September.  Call or email me with any questions or to book your H.S. senior portraits!

Kids are so cute!  Michael was not a big fan of sitting on my backdrop, in fact he was a little scared of it.  It took a lot of convincing but we finally managed a few on the white background... I think the lollipop helped a bit too!  He did prefer my stairs though ;-)

These two adorable sisters are surprising their mom with some mother day photos.  Their lovely grandparents live at South Seas and despite the unusual rainy day, we were still able to capture some beautiful portraits of the lovely ladies!

Ashley and Bill are getting married this Saturday and I was thrilled that we were able to squeeze in their engagement portraits last week.  I always recommend doing engagement portraits because it is a great warm up before the wedding photos.  Plus you have some beautiful photos to display at your reception.  Ashley and Bill - I will see you Saturday!!!
