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!!!

Adelaide has a new brother! {Shawna Everett Photography)

I'm thrilled to introduce another gorgeous baby

from the Raymor family. What a beautiful little

boy they have had. Beckett made his way into the 

world last week at Heart to Heart birth center. 

Mommy looks like she never had a baby a week ago,

and little sister is already being a big helper!

The two German shepherds approved as well, as you 

can see from the photo below. Congratulations to

Christy and Luke on their perfect new addition!

Thank you for inviting me once again to share in

this joy! 

New friends at the beach! { Shawna Everett Photography}

I'm lucky to know a lot all of my clients personally before

we shoot, and also some are good friends. Others, become good

friends as we shoot year after year. I'm so lucky!  Two shoots

at the beach this past weekend fit that description! I'm happy

to introduce this gorgeous family to my special spot

at New Symrna, and also to all of you. Everyone did

great including Mother Nature giving us some beautiful 

weather and some gorgeous skies. (ok. I might have enhanced that

last part just a bit!) Thank you to Gernelle and Dan and all

the kids for meeting me at the beach for your 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!!

Amelia and Mikey at the park. {Debary Photography}

I had the pleasure of meeting Amelia and

Mikey at the park again this weekend !

Mikey was not in love with my camera, but

we found something he did love! Any ball

that was thrown in his direction, he went

crazy for! Amelia was her perfect lovely self

and I always enjoy catching up with 

this sweet spirit.  Thank you to Susan

for again making the trip to see me!

Cute curls at the park. {Shawna Everett Photography}

I made a new friend today and she is so sweet!

She's really cute and has a head full of brown curls. 

Her name is Keira and I fully enjoyed my time

with her and her mom and dad out at Gemini yesterday.

I learned she doesn't like hats too much, but she does like

Teddy bears and Minnie Mouse.

The weather held out for us and we had a good shoot

in the evening. Still hot and muggy, but Keira did

great overall. Thanks so much for coming so far, guys!

I enjoyed meeting you and really hope we can make

it a yearly event! 

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. :))
