Shillings at Sunset {shawna everett photography}

                                  Yes! I took one of my all-time favorite families to my new 

location in Deland. So excited to use this space this fall and also to 

share this beautiful family with you. These kids are growing

up so fast. They are so gorgeous, I could just photograph

them all day. We had a bit of a surprise when "my" field 

was mowed down to mere inches, so we adjusted and shot 

across the way. I just hope I'm able to use this spot

as time goes on, because the sun comes in so perfectly

 there. Thanks to Ron, Sandra, Andrew, Noah and Isabelle

for sweating it out with me this summer!

One lucky baby. {Deland Pregnancy photography}

Mandy and Josh are getting ready for their 

fourth arrival! Yes, fourth... and I have to say

that is one lucky baby. This baby will be born into one 

of Florida's prettiest families. He or She will have the cutest

siblings on earth,  therefore genetically guaranteeing their own cuteness. 

He or She will have one very beautiful and patient mom who 

is so excited to have one more baby. He or She will have loads

of fun and memories playing with and learning about all 

their big brother and sisters. And I'm lucky too, because

I get to do a whole bunch more shoots with this incredible

and happy-go-lucky family! Starting with: this pregnancy shoot!

See you guys again real soon. :))

Handsome Family ! {family photos Gemini Springs}

Some shoots are just easy and fun. This was one of those.

(look at this one of dad photo-bombing his boys... Hilarious!)

The Kaltbaum family came to see me for family photos this

Memorial weekend. Their two boys are very photogenic and

and were perfectly playful and candid (for 18 and 22 years old)

Mom thinks this might be the last family portrait for awhile…

 (with just the four of them, anyway!) My gut is that before too long

we will be adding some VERY pretty female faces to this line-up!

Other than the heat and humidity, this was a great evening for

a shoot. I really enjoyed capturing this family. 

I hope you guys had fun too...

Thanks again for coming!

Beach Love {New Smyrna Beach Photos}

I love catching up with the Scott family! Beautiful evening at 

the beach last night and it was awesome to watch their 

kids play and run around. (and that they did!)

We also did family shots, but those will require a bit

more work, so I'll share these for now. Olivia is a little

button. I must have flagged 100 photos of just

her so far! And Michael is so handsome and 

good with his sister. There's no place

better than the beach for a shoot, and we got so lucky

last night. Great family, great smiles, and good fun!

If you would like your very own beach shoot, email me!

(shoots are only done in the evenings and require a travel fee)

Sweet and Sleepy baby Joseph… {Debary Newborn Photography}

I said, "after 14 years of photographing newborns, 

 Joseph was in the top five of all time." They laughed and said

 "you probably say that about all the babies"…

but no, they don't know. Joseph was a STAR! A true gem to 

photograph today! I absolutely couldn't wait to share these.

Not every baby allows you to move them all around, easily

settling back into position again and again. I loved spending time

with him today. I will always have a very soft place in my heart

for babies like him who shine and make my job

so much easier. A huge thanks to Danielle and Joey

for coming to share their beautiful bundle of joy

with me today. It was a pleasure!

Baby Andrew {Debary newborn photography}

I had the pleasure of shooting with the Krause family today 

and their beautiful new addition, Andrew. What a handsome

little man. His big sister  Hailey, was 100% on board with helping

out in any way she could. Very cool sister! We had a bit of a 

bumpy time with sweet baby Andrew, but I think we pulled it

off.  Hailey was exceptional and really was patient and kind.

I enjoyed this shoot as I do every newborn shoot. They are all

different, but all amazing ! Big thanks to John and Kelly

for coming a long way for a special shoot!

Sunset at the Dog Beach {pregnancy photos NSB}

Awe, these dogs were sweethearts.  Ava and Tyson got a 

special trip to the dog beach to pose with mommy who is

expecting her own puppy in four weeks! They did great

and more importantly, Danielle was sparkling with a 

gorgeous baby bump. I had a fantastic time traveling down to 

New Smyrna beach to capture a very special time in 

Danielle and Joey's life. I'm so happy I got to do it! 

Thank you guys, you were terrific! I really look forward 

to meeting Mr. Joeseph Anthony when he makes his

debut!  More photos to come in a few days...
