I've been looking forward to this birthday session for weeks! We absolutely enjoy customizing sessions for families so that each session is unique to each individual.  Collaborating with Stephanie, we planned for several outfits for the various backgrounds in studio! Since this was the first professional studio birthday session  for Mariah's 7th birthday I wanted to make it extra special! Who doesn't love pink... flowers...sparkle, and glitter? Well, I certainly love all of the above and fun fragrances too! Mariah was initially quiet when we started and at the end of the session she started singing. 
     We planned for a silver sequin backdrop, a fuchsia pink backdrop, and also a black background for a classic look. Oh! I also forgot to mention the pretty flower background and frilly fabric for the lying down portraits. The fancy silver sequin backdrop would be used with the gold foil number 7 balloon. 
     Mini in studio birthday sessions are so much fun to capture because they are convenient and we can avoid that Florida humidity. Mini Sessions range from 30 minutes to one hour.  I can't wait to share with you Mariah's birthday portraits! 

     Excited to share a recent outdoor maternity session that took place in Kissimmee, FL that has a gorgeous lakeside view.  The Nguyen's have been long time clients and I've captured their portraits from when their son was in the belly and now they are expecting again! They're having another boy and I can't wait to meet the little guy.
     Kim wanted an outdoor maternity shoot that was light and airy. Her maternity dress was light in color and the family color coordinated with light pastel colors for the maternity session that complemented well with the outdoor scenery.
     When its time to capture the essence of a pregnancy, its important to have fun and go with the flow. Especially working with young little ones, I'm not able to control every aspect of the session. Working quickly and capturing candid portraits as well as posed portraits would describe a maternity session with young children. The past few times I captured photos of Nolan during the holidays he would say to his parents, "I don't like woman"! He was definitely camera shy even with my zoom lens while I would hide in the bushes!
     The blue skies, white sand, and water was absolutely beautiful and gave us gorgeous maternity family photos.

    Senior Sessions are the most rewarding sessions for me as a photographer because I enjoy providing an experience for my clients. Senior portraits are a time to celebrate the accomplishments over the years in High School and it marks the beginning of early adulthood whether it be going to college or spent working on a trade.
     Lauren was open to a fun High School Senior session and she had so many outfits she wanted to bring to the session. I love outfits and different looks! We collaborated and decided that we would have a City look with an Urban feel and we would continue to an area with nature and greenery, and then winter park with a rustic charm!
    We started our portrait session with a meeting at the studio and made sure the outfits were ironed and ready for a photo session! Who doesn't want to wear a sexy black dress? We took these portraits in the city of Orlando and we were so scared the swans were going to attack us! They really do attack people when they get too close. The remainder of the session was a breeze and so much fun!
