When I was little (and still now!) one of my favorite things to do was to pick up wildflowers and bring them home to my grandmother and mother. I learned it from my grandmother who would stop at every little patch of wildflowers.

My approach to lifestyle photography is rather candid, especially when it comes to family photography. I love documenting families in a relaxed and fun setting where the kids play and the adults watch or even join in!

I love working with teens because they’re full of energy, they’re vivacious, and they’re a whole lot of fun! Teens are eager to get in front of the camera and show their personalities and who they are at that stage in their lives, I love that.

This session was cuteness overload, a true joy to photograph! There were so many adorable moments that I know the Hardees’ will cherish for a lifetime.

If you’re new to this series, I would love to catch you up. My office was in desperate need of remodeling and the floors had to go!

A few years ago, we came to this gorgeous park to document Halia’s 6th month, and here we are now celebrating baby Olina’s 6th month. How amazing is it that I’ve seen this beautiful family grow!

Truly, I love this park. Quaint and peaceful, this park surely is one of my favorite locations to shoot at. The old oak trees adorned with hanging Spanish moss give that old Florida vibe that I love so much!

A little confession, I cried after this session! My heart flutters when I witness so much love, especially love from mother to daughter.

Over the years, we’ve created many images, and have wedding stories, and memories. So it goes without saying that I’m overjoyed to have witnessed Katie & Josh’s love grow and to be able to document this very important moment in their lives!

If you’re on the fence about booking a branding photo shoot, here are my top 5 reasons why you should absolutely consider it.
