Little C is 10 days old here, and he was such a wonderful sound sleeper. S family, congrats on your little one! He’s absolutely adorable.
This hat is perfect for him.
He has such a cute smile.

The C family, on vacation, arrived for a beach session on a beautiful Florida day. Their oldest daughter is entering her senior year, so we focused on some senior portraits for her in addition to family pictures. C family, it was a pleasure meeting all of you!
I first met the parents of little E at their maternity session, and it was easy to see how excited they were for the arrival of their little girl. She’s just six days old in these pictures and as sweet as can be. She even slept peacefully for a few portraits with the fur baby. M family, it was a pleasure, and I can’t wait to see you all again for E’s six-month portraits.
This dog is so amazingly obedient and gentle. I love this picture.
I never get tired of newborn smiles.
I feel so lucky to photograph all these beautiful baby girls. She looks so peaceful here.
I love portraits of sleeping newborns (there’s just something so sweet and simple about those first couple weeks of life), but it’s fun to get a few awake pictures, too. She looks so curious about the world around her.
This little baby is just 10 days old here. She was happy to sleep blissfully for her newborn portraits, and when she did wake up toward the end of the session, she gave us such a sweet smile and direct eye contact.
Little C looks like she is having the best dreams.
Isn’t she such a pretty baby?
I love how alert she already is, and her eyes are amazing.
For months, Florida had been seared with summer heat, the dry land bursting into forest fires that consumed thousands of acres, and smoke drifting into Jacksonville so thick that the skyscrapers faded ghostlike in the horizon. Finally, the rain arrived, our lawns revived and lush. The water has been much needed, and I love being able to sit with my girls on a rainy afternoon, the rain beating a soothing rhythm on our skylights. Rain for photography, though, is a trickier thing. On one hand, a downpour is likely to ruin that perfect hairdo (not to mention expensive camera equipment), but on the other hand, stormy weather can make a pretty backdrop. The rain stayed away for this couple’s maternity session, but the clouds were especially dense with the promise of rain the next day. This mother-to-be is stunning, and right away, I could see how supportive her husband is and how happy they both are. I can’t wait to meet their baby girl in just a few weeks!
The sky was very grey overall, but a patch of fiery clouds over the dunes was a lovely backdrop.
There’s something so serene and beautiful about beach dunes.
I love how carefree she is here. And doesn’t she look amazing? The last trimester of pregnancy can be difficult, but she carries it off so lightly!
