Lil Miss Rylee {19 days old!}
Ohhhhh I could have squeezed her to death! Momma wouldn't have liked that though! She is SO precious. Rylee was born at 37 weeks and 5 days on May 26th (A day after my birthday! Don't worry mom, I'll teach her how to be a good gemini!!) She is so adorable, I just loved all the pink mom had for her. Love bug :) That's exactly what she is! Mom took part in our amazing and fantastic newborn special (which is still being offered) and from the quickness that one of our photo's became her default facebook photo, I'd say she's happy!
Shana:: congrats again on being a new mommy. You'll do a great job and you have a perfect little angel to spend the rest of your life with!
Sneak peaks!!!
Lake Worth Children Photographer | Lil E
Eric & I took Evan to downtown Lake Worth for a lifestyle session. He brought his skateboard and bubbles and we were ready to rock. We started off by Island Water Sports, a local surf shop with great clothes btw, and then moved to the other end of downtown. He was a lot of fun to photograph and a great listener! It was 92 degrees in Lake Worth, by the end of the shoot we were all soaked in sweat and ready for some AC! But despite the mid day sun and horrible heat we managed to get some great shots and we will definitely be shooting lil E again!
Sneak Peaks:
Testing: 24-70mm f/2.8
Before meeting Alex for dinner tonight, Gavin and I met her in Greer at the Veterans Memorial Park to test out the new lens. I have to admit, I like the lens but not for what I was looking to do tonight. So back to the ol' 50 mm for the shoot and here are some images. Alex and I will, one day, arrange enough time to do an actual shoot. Todays only lasted 15 mins & we were some hungry girls!
I did manage to take some great pictures of the park, which I will post later. Check back in a few days for those and for pictures of tomorrows wedding in Charlotte, NC.
Good night!
Bella’s photo shoot! {Lake Worth FL}
The Lake Worth Pier is reopened and the only one in the area, so I scheduled a shoot there. Bad idea. After going earlier in the day we had to go with plan b, the place was packed. There was no way a little girl would fare well against all those distractions. Plan B? .... We went to a small park that backed up against the inter-coastal and it worked out! While waiting for Rena + family I photographed some pigeons, the draw bridge opening and an older gentleman who broke my heart. He was sitting on a park bench, with a few bags by his side, and he talked to himself. He looked like an interesting man so I shot a few of him, which I'll post in my next blog.
Anyways! Here's a few from lil Bella's photo shoot!
My baby... not such a baby anymore
Gavin turned 6 years old last month and broke my heart. He's getting so big! I rarely have the opportunity to go out one on one with him and put my shutter finger to work. I got off work early today and the weather was perfect. Across the street from my parents house is a beautiful, big open field. We spent about ten mins out there goofing off. Here's a few from the shoot.
Airborne!
Again... but a different jump :)
Sitting, impatiently in the grass. He got mad because I made him stop catching lady bugs for the picture :D
Crabby grass.... hahahaha <3 it!
On the search for more lady bugs!
Greenville Photographer | Wee-One
Tiffany & Dustin had lil Elijah just in time to take advantage of our crazy, insane, unbelievable newborn special. (I over did it, didn't I?)
Eli is 5 days old today and beautiful. But, don't let the fact that he is 5 days old fool you. He picks up his head, opens his eyes big and bright and wiggles like a little worm. I got to use some new props that a friend knitted for us (If you're interested in purchasing please contact me and I will send you her way) and they were adorable on him.
If you're interested in taking part of our crazy, insane, unbelievable newborn special just send us a message and I'll give you all the details!
Dawson Cole{Newborn}
I met little Dawson at his moms baby shower last month, we got to view him in 4D before he made his grand entrance. But today I got to meet the little dude in person and he is gorgeous! Beautiful blue eyes, perfect skin and the cutest little fingers and toes. Mom, Crystal, wanted to do something fun and different for his photo shoot so we went with a more antique look and got the most amazing shot at the end when he finally fell asleep. Here's his very own slide show:
Eli:: Newborn! {Greenville SC}
As most of you know, Tiffany and her family have been with me since I started shooting again. Today we had a maternity session to capture the *end* of her pregnancy with little Eli. I had hoped to provide them with some amazing images but ... the sun and the shadows weren't on my side. It happens when you can only shoot mid day, Tiffany! ;) It's okay, we'll do another one if he'll hold out a few more days!
Siegfried Family Portraits {Spartanburg SC}
Just before I went on vacation I met Stefanie for some spring portraits and within a few hours of posting her pictures, her sister wanted in on the action also! So here you have it Dana! I hope you're happy with them!
One last shoot before vacation!
Stefanie, Hunter, my assistant (Gavin) and me went to the Miliken property in Spartanburg today for spring pictures! What a beautiful, relaxing place! Only problem is... the time of day we went and the sun kickin our arse! Hunter chowed down on an apple lollipop, until mom took it from him :) .... Here's a collection from their session.
