St. Petersburg Downtown & Marina Fun Kids Portrait Session

A few weeks ago I met up with new client (and amazing artist in her own right!), Karan, and her two boys for a really fun "guitar hero" lifestyle kids session. We all had a blast exploring Jannus Landing and the surrounding area all the way to the waterfront and marina.

Jamie & Chris' Jacksonville, Florida, Cummer Museum Engagement Session

Last week I caught up with Jamie & Chris for their engagement session. This October I have an incredible opportunity to be the photographer of their wedding, which will be the first ever wedding ceremony to take place at Jacksonville's beautiful Crummer Museum of Art & Gardens. There are so many places on the grounds to capture amazing nature- and art-inspired images. Where do we begin??? We had a blast exploring and getting to know each other, in spite of the super-muggy weather! I can't wait for their big day. Wow, the photos they are going to end up with are going to be out of this world! Congrats, Jamie and Chris! So excited about your wedding in a couple of months.

Here are a few samples and their slideshow: Jamie & Chris' Engagement Session

St. Petersburg, Florida, Fun Summer Kids Lifestyle Photography Portrait Session

Check out the fun event we recently created with our retail partner in St. Pete, Embellish Boutique. We had their customers sign up for summer beach-themed mini-sessions, then we set up our colorful backdrops and props, then created some really light, colorful images for the kids to enjoy.

And now for the next week and a half, you can go into the store to vote for the cutest kid. The winner will get a FREE session from CFP, 50 free Christmas cards, and a gift certificate to use at Embellish. This is over $500 in value, so if your child was a part of this event, tell everyone to get in and vote!

Here's the collage and a fun team shot (as "fun" as we could look in the middle of 17 sessions in 6 hours!!!).

Andee & Daniel's Melbourne, Central Florida, Engagement and Wedding

Last weekend I met up with Andee & Daniel to get capture their engagement and wedding imagery. And since Andee is the sister of one of my favorite clients, Trey (and Lizi!), we're doing like I love to do -- keep it in the family! I love showing up at weddings as the photographer and it's like a big reunion of clients that have become like close friends through the journey. I can see the same happening with Andee and Daniel, as these two are just amazing, wonderful people who are so perfect for each other. Congrats to you two, and thanks for inviting us to capture the beauty of your relationship!

Kim & Fayez's Cocoa Village, Central Florida Engagement Session

A couple of weeks ago Kara and I met up with our really fun and crazy October 10th wedding clients, Kim and Fayez. They chose Cocoa Village, Florida, as their locale, as it holds special meaning to them as a couple. We had a great time hanging out and getting to know them before we started shooting. I enjoyed their laughter and joy that they are so obviously filled to overflowing because of how they enjoy God's blessing of each other. These two are going to be an amazing ministry team together, as they continue to seek to give their lives to serving God.

I couldn't be more excited about having the privilege to be their wedding photographer this Fall. Thanks, Kim and Fayez. We hope you enjoy the samples and slideshow presentation: Kim & Fayez's Engagement Session
