As Life Unfolds....352.371.9735
Rylee and her parent’s Jessica and Phil are going to have lots of first coming up. My favorite – her first photo shoot! She was fabulous and wide awake for the whole event (minus a few small winks in between shots). You can totally see Phil in her. From her expressions to that big head of hair – she is just like her dad. Think she’ll be a daddy little girl? I do.
Here is a sneak peek of Rylee session. I’ll put more on our Facebook page later this evening. Until then…enjoy.
No you are not seeing double. It is twin sisters Ellie and Paulina. And those this is not one of the giggly cute pictures from the session it is my very favorite. The girl’s body expression is just so cute and modelish. Ellie with her arm behind her head and back like she is posing for a magazine (or is that Paulina?). And then Pauline playing with her beads and giving that look like “I’m prettier”! Love it. And it is not something I could ever pose it is just what happened. I love those types of pictures.
We did family pictures with Aydan when he was about two. He was a serious little boy, that loved golf and got a big grin when you mentioned hitting the links. His brother, Hayes is the exact opposite. You couldn’t get Hayes to stop giggling and smiling. The boys were precious and we had a wonderful time with them in the studio and look forward to the next family picture. I also just saw on facebook that Hayes is now walking. Congrats Hayes!
Ava & Kate were amazing in the studio! I love, love, love this photo! ( I could keep using the word love about 5 or 10 more times, it is exactly what I envisioned. I am so excited.) It is the sweet look of sisters who love each other. And Kim did a fabulous job job with the dresses. They were the perfect models.
We love family photos where the kids relax and have fun! Many parents feel everything needs to be look at the camera and smile. This is one of my favorite picture! Cameron and Keiley were just being brother and sister, not models for the camera. It really shows there true personality as siblings. It also shows the true love Keiley has for her brother. Priceless.
We had a blast recently photographing Audrey and Jay at Kanapaha Park. They brought along there cute pooch to include in the their engagement pictures. And I must say – she was a very well behaved dog (though she does know how to milk it for attention – I think all dogs know how to pull at your heart strings). Ours would never be so good. We had a great time strolling around the park getting great moments of the happy couple as they talked about wedding plans for their upcoming May wedding and the honeymoon. Can’t wait for the wedding in a few more weeks.
What a precious moment between a father and his new son. We recently had Colton Highlander in for his first photo shoot with his parents, Jenny and Josh. We got some great photos with the new family. Colton was such an easy, happy baby to work with. The new parents couldn’t have been prouder.
Melanie and Jordan recently tied the knot at the Baughman Center on a chilly Saturday morning. Though the day started out with rain, which would send most brides for a tailspin, Melanie in Jordan were very calm about the weather. Despite starting off the day with rain, by the time we got to the Baughman Center the rain had stopped and blue skies were all you could see. After a short & sweet ceremony performed by Chad Reed, the happy couple was immediately on their way to Touchdown Terrace for an amazing party, also known as the reception.
Jordan’s entire family including grandparents are all University of Florida graduates. The stadium was the perfect place to celebrate the union of these two physical education teachers.
What a fun party! Let’s see, Melanie’s dad, Doug, made all of the ex-boyfriends give Jordan back their house keys. Little did Jordan know, that was every man in the room, including the DJ. The happy couple decided to share the cake cutting with the maid of honor and best man, who were surprised to get cake in their face. One of the bridesmaids did the worm. There were some amazing moments – all captured by us! So if you don’t remember what you did that night, be nice to Melanie and Jordan, they have the evidence.
Celebrations Catering did a fabulous job turning a very large room that seats a few hundred people into an intimate space for 65. And they were great about making sure the bride and groom were very well taken care of. The bartender went as far as to know how much wine the bride had in her glass, every time it got low – he was there filling it! What service.
Congratulations! The rest of the pictures will be ready for everyone to see in a few weeks.
We are soooo excited about Melanie and Jordan’s wedding next weekend. We did Melanie’s big sister’s wedding a year ago and had a blast. I know we will get great pictures from their wedding as well. The happy couple happens to be physical education teachers at schools here in Alachua county. We had a lot of fun at their engagement session and were jealous to learn that they’ll be heading to Sandals for a relaxing honeymoon once school lets out.
We did Chris and Stacy’s wedding back in 2007 and it was a blast. We got some amazing pictures and were excited to hear from them requesting a new family picture for Chris & Brian’s mom. In our conversation at the studio we learned the last formal picture, other than the wedding photos, that their mom has of them is their senior pictures. So mom was requesting an updated picture of kids, that has expanded to include Stacy. I think mom is going to be extremely happy to have a new portrait on her wall!
Trying to come up with a great idea for your mom for Mother’s Day? Give the gift that keeps on giving all year round, a portrait! Call the studio to schedule your session 352.371.9735.
