Senior Sessions in Panama City Beach Florida

These two Georgia cheerleaders made my job very sweet! What a fun time we had playing in the water and celebrating them both turning 16!!! Here in Panama City Beach Florida we swim until Halloween, so laying in the water during our "Autumn months" is no problem! Thanks Lindsey and Annsley! And thank you cool mom (Jessica) for trusting me with these precious and gorgeous girls! If you are looking for a senior photo session, please visit my website and reach ...

Saharan Dust makes a extra colorful sunset!

Featured here, " The Miller Family" showcasing the beautiful Saharan Dust Sunset here in Panama City Beach, FloridaIf you haven't noticed the hazy sunsets lately, let me explain: The Saharan Dust comes off the coast of Africa during the summer months, usually July and August. It comes by the wind over the Atlantic and is quite helpful and keeping tropical storms at bay! A great thing for our beaches and locals and tourists! It does this by keeping our moist environment a bit drier ...

The Editing Process

Wow! Panama City Beach and all of our beaches here in NW Florida are busier than ever, even with the price of gasoline! This photo was taken 4th of July week and as you can see in the unedited version there are beach lovers everywhere! (Including my daughter Jacqueline who is doing photos for another family right behind me.)It's not always easy and it can be very time consuming to edit each individual image, but it is critical that the work is done. It is important to me that your ...

Katia's Senior Session

As you can see from the photos, Katia is a beautiful girl! This was her senior photo session at St Andrew State Park here in Panama City Beach. The jetty rocks always photograph well with a sunset that seems to always be more beautiful and dramatic than anywhere else! She brought her mother and two of her friends (her cheering team) that really boosted her spirits as it can make you a little nervous being the center of attention and playing the role of supermodel! Seniors are ...

When the weather is not what you were expecting!

People tend to picture in their mind a beautiful sunset with a perfect golden drop over the horizon for a successful beach session. I'm hear to tell you that you are mistaken! Now don't get me wrong, a sunset is a beautiful event and I hope you get your sunset, but picture a cloudy, mysterious, misty day with a roaring surf.... rain is coming.... there's something equally as magical about that too! (plus there is NO squinting!)My kiddos here are having the time of their life making memories of ...

The Dancing Queens from Tonie's Dance Workshop

Just finished up an exciting month of March photographing some beautiful talent over at Tonie's Dance Workshop! I was very impressed with these two girls in particular. They graciously allowed me to interview them for my blog, and of course I can't resist a chance to brag on the dancers here! They look like twins at first glance, because their buns are so neat! They are the same size and they are both in the 7th grade. Let me introduce you to Hylee Nguyen (black pants) and Journi ...

BABY on the way!!!!

Jen and Wyatt enjoyed a beautiful get away at the appealing design and architecture of Rosemary Beach this week. The weather was mostly rainy, and being the end of February, the beaches were fairly quiet. www.rosemarybeach.com We had set our appointment for Saturday, but moved it to Sunday because of the rain and as you can see from the sunset it was a gorgeous day! Jen had a beautiful tropical dress. She really looked amazing for this important documentation of the ...

Newborn Photography

Newborn photography is a special time for new mothers! These sessions last no longer than an hour and are usually done in the morning when baby feels best. I recommend about 10-15 days after birth. I come to your home where you and baby are most comfortable. I bring a light source and different props that we can discuss before hand to go for the look you have envisioned. Wardrobe changes are welcome and naked bottoms are too!If you are interested in this type photography ...

ENGAGED!

Engagement sessions are the practice session for the wedding photos!! I always encourage my couples to relax and just enjoy each other. We begin the session more posed and then let it evolve into their love story. It unfolds as they tease each other, laugh and kiss and have fun... AND show off that RING! This particular engagement session was done at Falling Water's State Park in Chipley Florida. The natural elements of the woods fit their personalities and it shows! ...

Brea and David's Wedding

This wedding venue in Milton Florida is a gorgeous campsite called, "Coldwater Gardens". It rained on us as we drove over from Panama City, the roads were a mess. SO we PRAYED the rain would stop in time for this wedding! About 3 minutes before show time the rain stopped! God is SO good! Afterwards we were able to do all the family and romantic photos on the grounds and then the reception was an indoor area up the hill from where the ceremony took place. It was spacious and the ...
