Meet a future Olympian! {Debary photography}

So this is Alexa… and I'd like you to know there's a very 

good chance you are looking at a future gymnastics star!

I say that, not only because she's walking at 9 months old…

but because she has her mommy's feet and that means she'll

be a lot like her mommy. Kim was a friend of mine in our

tween/teen years and we went to gymnastics camp together for

many summers. (we have SOME stories!!) She was much better

than I, and actually went to college on a gymnastics scholarship. 

This is her first daughter, Alexa, and she is a beauty!! I loved

meeting her and absolutely fell in love with her smile and 

sweet spirit. Keep your eye on this one! 

Thanks for coming to Gemini guys!!!

Kennedy's back! {Downtown Sanford Holiday shoot}

Kennedy has just returned from a sojourn in the Great 

Pacific Northwest!  I was so happy to see her again. 

Kennedy is one of the most expressionistic children 

I've ever been around.  I almost titled this post, 

"The many faces of Kennedy"

She's really busy and super sweet. I know she keeps

mommy and daddy on their toes all the time.  I loved

seeing the Schaber family again. Thank you so 

much for coming out for a Holiday shoot!

Fun at Gemini { Shawna Everett Photography}

Once a year, I get to catch up with all my lovely

families that I have the honor of shooting. This year is no

different, and I'm jam-packed until December with 

families. The Kelton family is a great way to start.

 With these two beauties… it's a sweet start

to a great season. I take that back…. I mean THREE

beauties! Thank you Erin and Mike for meeting me

at the park this year!

Three sweet boys at Gemini. { Shawna Everett Photography}

 

I had the pleasure of photographing a new family

this weekend at Gemini Springs.  Meet the Monette boys,

all smiles and curls! It was rather muggy and hot out 

there this weekend, after so much rain. We made it work and

the boys did great. I love welcoming more sweet 

people into the Shawna Everett Photography family. 

Thank you so much for allowing me to photograph

your family, Tara and Dan! Great to meet you all.

Sweetest Weslee Rose {Debary photography}

Oh my goodness… this is why 6-7 month old babies are

THE BEST! They are happy, smiley and full of

joy. Every last one of them. I don't think I can even

think of an exception.  {{Wait. Maybe my son. }} 

Ok, I'll save that story for another blog post. Weslee 

came to see me for her 6 month shoot and we had so 

much fun in bubbles and hats. I loved seeing her

and her pretty momma too. Thank you 

Nikki, for making the drive and choosing me

for 6 month photos...  Always love seeing all of you!!

And baby makes four… { shawna everett photography}

Again, Mandy and her sweet, sweet family came to 

Gemini for a pregnancy shoot with the kids. 

We found out some great news…. that she will 

be having "bookend boys!" YAY!!  So happy for

this family. Can't wait to meet Mr. J when he arrives. 

The kids, per usual… did awesome. We got some of

the cutest mommy/child portraits. Good family shots too.

I'll never tire of these blondies and the strawberry blond

in the middle, either!!! 

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. :))

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!

The Brown Family {Debary Photography}

I had the pleasure of meeting one of my sisters-in-laws

best friends this week, and what a sweet family!

They are visiting from Mississippi this week.

Their daughter, Adeline, gave us a run for our money, 

but I think we succeeded in catching her in enough 

cute moments! Now that I think about it, most 18 month olds

give me a run for my money. It was great to meet you all,

and I hope to someday meet Mr. Levi! 

Thank you for allowing me to photograph

your beautiful family. 

Some of my favorite things...

These are some of my favorite things….

Or rather….some of my favorite people!

The Douglas family met me at the beach for

their Holiday photos. Emily was prancing and dancing and Liam

was…well….Liam. He was hilarious. This photo of him

in the basket is him giving us his biggest smile. He puts a lot

of effort in that, and it shows. {LOL} Love him!

I'm so happy Alicia and Travis get to experience the full

blown boy personality. I can't wait to edit more and see what

other antics (and smiles) I captured! Thanks guys for coming out to

New Symrna !

Chace and Chloe

Ah! These two are too cute!  Chace is a mover…and I'm so happy

we captured him in his true spirit. There are some very funny ones

of this little fireball! And Chloe is as sweet as she can be. 

She likes to chew on her fingers now, with teeth coming in…

so I'm happy to report we captured a few with no fingers!

I'm sure mommy will be happy about that. Thank you to 

Amber and Casey for allowing me to shoot your

Holiday photos. No family shots here to ruin any

potential Christmas card surprise!!  Thanks again!
