I LOVE Amy & Ben

These two are definitely my all time favorite models. Hands down. I cannot take a bad photo of them, it's impossible! Even when caught talking or sneezing they look gorgeous. And for that, I love them.

Amy and I recently decided to put our photography heads and husbands together and do a photo-swap. Besides my wedding photos, I have NEVER had any nice professional photos take of the two of us. Everything we have is holding the camera at arms length in front of us, hoping to get the right angle, and not crop out our faces.

So we set up a date, freaked out about what to wear, dressed up the hubbies and went shooting. We were both wanting a more natural look and ended up finding this A-M-A-Z-I-N-G field only 5 minutes from my house (why had I not discovered this sooner?!)

We picked the coldest day in October in the past 50 years in Florida (it was a chilly 48) but still managed to get some awesome shots (no blue lips here!)

So here are some of my favorites from the day, and at the bottom, my favorite of Zach and I. Thank you again Amy and Ben for being so uber-fabulous and allowing me to photograph you whenever I want :)

Seriously. Gorgeous. Field. I love the light here!

Ben is so GQ

Definitely my favorite. Probably ever! I just loved this grass.

Abby : Portrait

A few weeks ago I photographed Abby for her Senior portraits. She is the epitome of the perfect senior: super cute, really fun, gorgeous and of course well rounded in school. Abby is the captain of her basketball team, and it shows! The girl is very tall! We decided to do our shoot at Rollins College, the backdrop there is just so amazing. Abby's sister Jenn is getting married in January, so you'll be seeing even more of her soon! Congratulations Abby on being a Senior! I hope you have a fabulous last year!

She is all legs, no wonder she plays basketball!

I forgot to mention, this girl has the most incredible blue eyes!

Allison & Kirk : Sneak Peek!

Ok, so I just got home from this wedding about an hour ago, but I'm so excited about the photos that I had to just post two! The first is of the fabulous Bride and Groom - I seriously could not have asked for more incredible light. And the second is of their bridal party. They were so much fun, and this photo just shows it! So enjoy for now - I can't wait to go through the rest!

Happy Halloween!

So after eating waaaayyy too much leftover candy, it is time for me to say goodbye to another Halloween, one of my favorite holidays. Though we didn't do much this year, we just has a nice dinner with family and sat around a bonfire. I loved it. So I had to get our one Halloween photo in, with our horrible little point-and-shoot, both of us scruffy, makeupless (that would be only me) smelling like campfire smoke and super sleepy. But here it is!

Happy Halloween everyone!

I was featured on SHOOTSAC!

Ok, so this actually happened 3 weeks ago, but I have been so busy I just haven't had a chance to post! So here I am, at 12:50 in the morning, finally updating before I have to get up at 6:30am (why am I still awake?!?)

Three weeks ago I was featured on one of my FAVORITE blogs to stalk :) SHOOTSAC!

I purchased my shootsac this past summer, and it is seriously the most amazing camera bag ever. Plus, you can purchase all of these amazing covers to coordinate with your outfit! A true stylista's dream. So instead of the horribly ugly backpack, we photographers get the option of this amazing stylish bag.

I bring my shootsac with me on all of my shoots, and especially to weddings. It holds everything that I need and makes is super easy to switch lenses, memory cards and batteries. It has been my life saver!

So this past August, I photographed Callie & Adam's wedding at the beautiful Paradise Cove with my very good friend and photographer Heidi Mitchell. Heidi assisted me for the day, something we frequently do for eachother. And while shooting she took a shot of me photographing Callie and Adam with my shootsac! I sent it to shootsac, just for fun, and they decided to feature me on their blog! So please check me out (link above) and if you're a photographer, check out their bags, they're awesome!

Vianka & Mike : Couple Shoot

Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing Vianka & Mike. I met Vianka through our friend Isa, and instantly liked her. She just has one of those bubbly infectious personalities. So when she emailed me wanting to do a shoot with her and her new husband, I instantly jumped at the chance! They live out of town, but knew they were going to be in Orlando for a weekend, so we set it up. We decided that Rollins would be the perfect location for their shoot. Vianka wore the cutest dress to the shoot (I absolutely L.O.V.E. dresses for couple shoots!) and Mike was such a sweetheart - It's no wonder Vianka picked him! So thanks you two for allowing me to capture your lovely marriage!

And, for the first time, I am showcasing my new "Sweet 16" Collection! Vianka & Mike were the perfect couple to start this off with. Printed or put on Canvas, the Sweet 16 is 12x12 in size and perfect for any wall! Please contact me if you'd like to see your photos in a Sweet 16, or if you'd like to do a shoot to make one of you!

Ok, I have been a little negligent lately in my blogging. I am very sorry! So to make up for my slacking, we are going to have a mega post. Photos from SEVERAL sessions in the past month. So here are my favorites from all of my recent shoots. Enjoy!
