Palm Beach Maternity Photographer | Des + Nate {Awaiting Baby}

Des and Nate are expecting their baby girl Kiyha in January. (How awesome/cute is that name?) Dad is a huge fan of nature and being outdoors so of course I had the perfect place in mind. I met Des, Nate and their two fun boys at a garden and we walked around for about an hour until closing time. They had to kick us out, I could have photographed this beautiful momma and her family all night. I can't wait to meet that little girl and play dress up for our newborn session! Congrats to you and your family, Des & Nate.


Holiday Mini Sessions | Palm Beach Family Photographer

EDITED 12/1/12: * Due to rain, the sessions are rescheduled for December 8th from noon to three. * Well hello again! It's been a while since I've blogged, so I figured there's no better time than now to catch up on blogging and show off this years holiday mini session information. Check it! (There's also a few custom card examples, so scroll down!)


Palm Beach Newborn Photographer | Aiden {33 days new}

Lil itty bitty Aiden came into the world 8 weeks early and came out ready to see the world. Born June 4, 2012 4lbs 9oz and 16 3/4" long. Aiden is the epitome of a service baby. Dad is a Firefighter Paramedic for Delray Beach Fire Department, mom is a dispatcher for Palm Beach County Fire Rescue, and Uncle Cody is living on Fort Bragg as part of the 82nd Airborne Division. We tried to incorporate a little bit of everything into the session, including proud Dad's drum that he plays for Palm Beach County Firefighters Pipes and Drums (which are my fav out of the session) and Uncle Codys family crest tattoo on his side.

Although Aiden put up a fight, we still won (5 hours later). It was nice hanging out with the Kavanagh crew and meeting Aiden. Congrats Amber and JT :)


Palm Beach Newborn Photographer | Mason's Slideshow

I don't usually do slideshows for portrait sessions, but I couldn't resist. I think I may start doing it more often!


Palm Beach Newborn Photography | Mason {4 days new}

Completely unbiased here, but Mason is the cutest baby I've photographed -- ever. He's my nephew and was born on Friday June 29th, 6lbs 12oz and 19 1/2 inches long. He's a little peanut! Long before Mason was even thought of, my brother had an idea of what he wanted his first borns pictures to be like. Matt works for PBCFR - Palm Beach County Fire Rescue (hopefully I will soon, too) and wanted to incorporate that into the session.

Congrats Matt and Lisa, you have a sweet baby boy <3


Palm Beach Photographer | Lorna {Just Because}

Lorna contacted me the beginning of the year for a just because shoot and we've literally been rain dancing and praying since then. Finally, we were able to make it happen this past weekend. We had our session at the beach and it was the perfect day for it, definitely worth the wait.

Here's a few from her session!


Palm Beach Family Photography | Julian is TWO!

Julian and I went on a nature hunt in the wet lands. We looked for imaginary rabbits, "eww bugs" and secret birds in the trees. Mom and Dad came along for the journey too and brought their pet fish who was pretty shy when it came to camera time.

Julian & Crew were celebrating Julian's second year of life by showing off how much he has changed since he was an infant. He's full of life, energy, and is such a happy little guy. Michele and Chris, you're blessed to have an awesome kid and I'm glad I could be part of the memory making.


West Palm Beach Photographer | Maternity Photography

About a month ago I photographed my brother and his wife with their lil Mason on board and I just realized I never blogged about it. We photographed their maternity session at the Polo Fields in Wellington on a friend of Lisa's property. They were fantastic, we got to use Buttercup (their horse) as a prop and had full access to anything on the property. They were awesome, thanks again! So here it is:


West Palm Beach Photographer | Summer Lovin'

You show me love, I'll show you love. Sounds like a match made in heaven, huh? After a bit of down time, some mid day naps, and all nighter dates with me and handsome movie stars (okay... so I was watching movies, but I can dream right?) I decided I am going to dive head first into photography this summer. I'm enrolling in Fall classes and photography is going to be my lil love affair on the side until I reach my goal of being a Physician Assistant (5-6 years from now....)

Okay so here's the deal. You want free stuff? Well, I want to give you free stuff. There's no signing up, no contest, no rules. You talk to your friends who are going through moments that need memories (pictures) and you get a free session for yourself or to give to a loved one. It doesn't matter if it's a wedding, maternity, newborn, boudoir, engagement, trash the dress, singles profiles online, or whatever else you can come up with. If you think someone is in (or should be in) the market for a photographer you pass my info along and after the completion of their session you get one too! ANNNNND if that's not good enough, the friend you refer will get $75 off their session + a complimentary 10x13 print! Wooooooooo that's good stuff. You should get on face book and twitter and share the news so you can all start collecting on this madness.

Let do this!


Palm Beach Newborn Photography | Emelie {10 days new}

So when I gave mom the low down on how to prepare for this session, she thought I was nuts. I can see where she thought that, because keeping a baby awake for an extended period of time is pretty nuts (especially when all mom wants to do is sleep!). But after the session mom was begging me to do nightly photo session of lil Emelie because she slept from 7pm to 12:30 am, ate and then she slept again until 6:30 am. I think it's safe to say I wore her out, but she was an excellent model!

Congrats on your beautiful little girl, Aritta. She's perfect.
