Engaged in Florida, Wedding in Kentucky!

 
The weather in Florida had been just lovely for January, and on this Monday it was no exception. I met with Katie and Scott downtown St. Pete for an engagement session. The weather was perfect and so were they. What wonderful people they were! It just so happened to be Katie's birthday also, so I am hoping it was a birthday well spent :). Congrats to this wonderful couple! Here is a sneak peak!













Ella the Explorer.

 
I had the honor of meeting this special little two year old! She had such a brilliant zest for life. She wanted to explore and play with such great excitement about every new venture. The best part to it is when she was asked to do something, she would stop (even if only for a second ;)) and do it. I can really learn a thing or two from her :).  I really enjoyed working with Ella. A great way to start the new year! Here are a few from that day!
 
 
 
I JUST LOOVVVE THIS ONE! Don't know where it came from, prayer maybe?

Getting Married Soon!

Such a sweet couple! They met in college through a cousin in a fraternity and started dating later after college. Four years later, Ryan popped the question to Emily and Emily said yes. I had the pleasure of meeting with this couple a month before their 'I Do's' in Boca Raton where Emily is from, I am so glad that we had the opportunity to do so! When I first spoke with Emily she said 'we are more classic' I said 'ok good to know'! But at the end of our session (to my delight) they were cool with climbing under a broken gate to a rocky bed that over looked the bay and downtown St. Pete! Love the risk takers:) Congrats to them and many well wishes on their new life together. Throughout the session, I talked St. Pete up (as folks know me I do to a fault) but what I couldn't do, two dolphins did as we walked along the bank, they were SO CLOSE to us. It just added to an awesome photo session, thankyou dolphins to finishing up a fabulous evening:)!  Here are a few of my favorites I nabbed ~





A few here and there.


















I just love these photos and unfortunately I didn't have time to blog them or really look through and find fave of faves, but want to give a general outline of these missed sessions on the blog. Everyone, have a great new year and remember to remind yourselves of the many beautiful blessings that we are given.

About Me

There is so much joy and love in life, its not always perfect but its there. At any opportunity that comes my way, at any stage of life I feel blessed to be able to capture it. Capturing your lives as they are now touches me. It shows strength through trials, love for family, joy for celebration, the beauty of growth and the fun in just everyday relationships.
