hello and welcome

I am beyond excited to have a brand new blog! I vow to post here more often (a never ending goal of mine) and plan on announcing specials (yes I will be offering some exciting specials so stay tuned) and of course sneak peeks from recent sessions and the stories behind them. Thank you to my friends at Luxecetera once again for yet another amazing product!! They did my logo and my entire new brand. I literally would be lost without them. Stay tuned, and be sure to check back often. And don't be afraid to post comments, I love to see who is checking in!

Blessed

I am blessed to be doing what I love. It is no secret that I love photographing newborn babies, but it is not  just about the baby. It’s about the love and excitement and often times fear that is in the air in those early days after they come home. I will never forget the first week I brought each of my children home, it is literally etched into my heart forever. I feel so very honored to document that time in each of my clients lives. This little guys mom and dad are SO in love with him, it was fun watching them ooh and ahh over him. There is no doubt that he is their entire world. Thank you both for trusting me with your newest treasure, I look forward to watching him grow!

Sweet baby | Tampa Baby Photography

It was such a treat to photograph this little guy. I get to see him again when he is sitting up; how lucky am I? And can you believe how beautiful baby blues??

Studio | Tampa Family Photographer

I am getting quite settled into the studio and have to say that I wish I had made the leap a long time ago. I love shooting in the studio and had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family shortly before Christmas and I am just now getting around to posting. It’s hard to believe that I have been photographing them since she was pregnant with their little guy. What a privilege it is to watch these beautiful families grow.

Triplets | Tampa Baby Photographer

These boys were born early and spent a good bit of time in the NICU before they were able to come home. They are doing just awesome now and I had the pleasure of hanging out with them for a few hours last week. Although they were a little older than I typically photograph new babies, we were able to get some really sweet shots of them and they were SO good for me! They just happen to have some super cool parents as well :)

Sugar and Spice | South Tampa Baby Photography

I don’t know why but I hardly ever photograph baby girls. I don’t know why that is. They are so different, their features are so delicate, so tiny. This little princess was SO good for me, she slept the entire time. And even though I made her Grandpa very nervous (which was so sweet) she acted like she didn’t even know I was there. I have a feeling that this little girl is never going to wonder if she is loved.

Email Issues

I am having some email issues. I believe they are limited to the contact section of my web site but we are still looking into the problem. The terrible thing about it is that I am getting some but not others with no rhyme or reason so I think it is possible it has been going on for a while. If you have emailed me and not heard back from me, PLEASE call me! I check email regularly (sometimes too regularly) and it is not like me AT ALL to ignore emails. I am hoping to get this resolved soon but until then if you do not hear back from me within 24 hours call. And because no post feels quite right without a photograph, I thought I would share a couple pictures of my little turkey’s, Cade and Brody. Cade is such an awesome big brother and gives the best hugs. Makes my heart melt just a little. SLP_0450_3648lr

Sisters | Tampa Bay Baby Photographer

I photographed this little one’s sister when she was newborn. I literally feel like it was only months ago. And even though she wasn’t so sure about getting her picture with her sister, she did give us one really sweet shot. They were both so good for me and I have never known anyone love books the way she does. Maybe she will grow up to be a World Famous author one day :)

Going Pro | Tampa Newborn Photographer

I have to admit that when a parent really wants to get a particular shot at a newborn session it makes me a little nervous. Reason being, babies sense it. They feel the tension, the desire, they know that dad is literally saying a prayer ‘Please God let him stay asleep while we balance him on the football”. Well I have to admit that this is probably the first time that particular prayer came into play at one of my newborn sessions but hey, I am up for anything. Dad got his wish. Can you believe how tiny he looks propped up on that ball? What an amazing family.

Mama Mia | Tampa Maternity Photographer

I was so excited to have the oppurtunity to photograph this amazingly beautiful mama and her hubby in the studio. She owns Aquali Salon and Spa in Valrico. If you haven’t checked it out you must, it is fabulous! My entire family goes there, well with the exception of Brody because I refuse to cut his baby hair :) I can’t wait to meet their new baby!!
