from afar | niceville family photographer

My niece, nephew and sister in law came out from Colorado for week during summer break. We had so much fun at the pools, beach, playgrounds and everything in between. We had to take advantage of have such a beautiful beach and do an impromptu photo shoot of their family. I had so much fun with you guys and can't wait until we see you again!

Oh this family! What can I say but they are just gorgeous!!! The boys just love their little sister and she is infatuated with them. With some good old fashioned tickling and wrestling, we finally managed to get a picture of all three of them together that wasn't just a streak of pure energy.

This one just looked like a painting to me so I had to turn it into a watercolor. What do you think?

Check out those eyes! Watch out Daddy, the boys are just going to melt!

And speaking of eyes. . .

Thank you for all of the fun!

In the military we often find ourselves separated from family and my kids don't get to see their cousins all that often. How I have always wanted to live close enough for them to get to know each other and grow up together.
For now I will just have to live vicariously through this family. Watching these kiddos play with each other was awesome! What fun to have family close by.

There is nothing better than getting to photograph new life. So full of innocence and peace. This beautiful family invited me into their homes to capture their newest addition and I had a blast. Big sister was a great host and was sure to pose when the camera was in use and baby brother was such a great baby. Congratulations to your family on your newest blessing!

raffle winner | niceville family photographer

Several months back our squadron held a fund raising raffle. I donated a complete photo shoot to the cause and wouldn't you know - the most precious family won.

This little man is 8 weeks old and has a personality that is just as fun as can be.

Hi Mama and Daddy are just absolutely head over heals in love with him and it shows!
I had so much fun during this shoot and just love holding these little guys. (It is even better to be able to give them back when they get fussy.)

Cutie - you are going to break way to many hearts when you get older!

belly bump | niceville family photographer

So, my purpose for going to Las Vegas was to surprise my dear Bond Girl "Dorothy" at her baby shower. What a monumental time that was! In addition I did a few belly shots of her and her loving hubby while I was visiting.

They are expecting their second child, a boy this time, in the next couple of weeks.

I am so happy that I was able to be there for the shower and to capture this beautiful time in her life. You are radiant girl!

I can't wait to meet your little man!

I recently was off to Las Vegas for a very special surprise and also a couple of photo shoots while I was there!

What an honor to have photographed their growing family from pregnancy on. For a brief flash back in time go here, here and here.

So, early in the morning (and I mean EARLY) we headed to the Las Vegas sign for some family shots and then spent the rest of the day trying to capture this little doll baby at her best.

For those of you that have had or do have two year old, you know this can be a challenge but we managed.

I love this family as if they were my own and am so honored that they entrust in me to capture the moments in life that only will be a glimpse as the future takes hold.




What a fun time! Thank you for having me!
