I first photographed this family 2 years ago for Liam's first birthday. We created lovely images then, so I was excited when mom called to schedule a maternity session to freeze their time as a family of four, as they await the joy of a new baby. I could not believe how much these kiddos have grown! Especially Liam, who at 3 is such a great talker! We were able to capture some great moments of this family spending an evening together, enjoying each other in the beautiful evening light.
I got to photograph this couple's rehearsal dinner, and I've seen their adorable baby on social media, so I was naturally excited when they said they wanted to schedule a photo session while they were visiting Miami for Labor Day weekend! We fought off some heat and mosquitoes, and captured the love in this new family and their beautiful new baby!
I loved this family and I loved this session. Followers of my blog hear me say it all the time, but when you relax and enjoy yourselves and your family in front of my camera, it gives me lots of So You moments to capture. When I parked my car, I looked over and this colorful mural caught my eye. It happened to also be an area that provided the shade we needed to keep us cool on this warm South Florida morning. These guys played, and laughed, and snuggled, and snacked on pretzels, and I got to capture it all!
This mama and I went to High School together, and haven't seen each other since! But thanks to Facebook, she knows I'm doing photography in South Florida, so when her family came to visit from NJ for the Spring, we both agreed doing an outdoor session in the Florida sunshine would be lovelier than an indoor winter session at home up North! I'm so glad I got to capture this family in some lovely evening light. Mom and dad have certainly got their hands full with three boys, but they handle it with grace, sarcasm, and humor - a totally winning combination in my parenting book! It was an honor to freeze some of these moments in time for them.
I love this family. I've been lucky enough to capture their maternity and newborn sessions, and now a fun lifestyle family session at these kiddos' grandparents' house. They enjoy each other and are totally themselves in front of the camera, which always gives me such great genuine moments to capture.
This session was particularly exciting, because mom said she was interested in including swimming as part of their session. And my response was, "well, I've been meaning to purchase an underwater housing for my camera!" So I did, and into the pool we went!
So now that summer is approaching in South Florida, if you'd like your underwater adventures photographed, hit that 'contact' button and let me know!
