The Person

Well first of all, I try not to take myself too seriously, so it's hard for me to think about what I want to say about myself!  I grew up in Florida with a very large family.  My entire family has art running through their veins.  My grandfather was a professional photographer, Mom and Dad both have artistic talents, and all of my siblings have a knack for being creative one way or another.  so here I am, married with children and wondering how in the world I'm going to channel my passion for creativity into something beautiful, productive, fulfilling, and find joy all at the same time?  So, photography became the answer and a much needed outlet.

I love people, I love love, and I love adorable little baby fat rolls!  I have to be creating beautiful things at all times.  Though being a full time mother and homemaker takes up most of my time, I just can't keep myself from dreaming about being an amazing wedding photographer.

The Photographer

Over the past five years in the wedding industry, I feel like I have become a regular wedding junkie!  By recognizing the latest styles and trends, I am prepared to capture everything that is unique and fabulous at your wedding and wrap it all up into an amazing timeless package.  And that amazing package is the work of art you will walk away with when the day is all said and done.  How well do you want to remember it? 

Recently I have also reached one of my ongoing goals of being published in a national wedding magazine.  They are but two small pictures, but I am so blessed none the less (baby steps!).  You may recognize some images from Kyle and Christina's Wedding at Gorge Crest Farms in Town & Country Weddings, Fall 2010 issue.  I have also been featured in a few wedding inspiration blogs such as Style Me Pretty, Snippet & Ink, Style Unveiled, and Marry You Me!

Maternity Shoot!

So, yesterday I was having a lot of false labor. My Hubby even came home from work and we went for a few walks to keep thing moving along, but it was indeed a false alarm. BUT, as disapointed as we were, Missy came down for a couple hours today and was able to finally do some maternity shots for me!!! So, if I’d had the baby yesterday, I would not have these great pictures to show! Miss, I hope you like the way these ones are touched up!

Paul & Ashley’s 2nd look!

Hi there,
I decided to post just few more to tease (since I didn’t post many previously). I am almost done with your album already and am looking foward to meeting up with the two of you in October!

Sneak Peaks!

Hi guys! Since my baby is due to come any day now, I thought I’d put of a couple of my favs just to torture you until your viewing session! I will be scheduling all viewing sessions after October 15th. This will pertain to:

Stu & Sarah
Ryan & Daniele
Paul & Ashley
Lenny & Nichole
(And any other clients who haven’t scheduled a viewing date with me yet…)

Sorry to make you wait so long, but it will give me enough time to recover and really blow your socks off, and that’s what we REALLY want, right?? Thanks for being good sports!
Nichole and Lenny, here’s your sneak peak. For the rest of you, keep checking back, and hopefully I’ll get yours up before this baby shows up :)
