Maternity with Style

I've been anxious for this shoot since the day I met Demi and her sister-in-law at Starbucks to discuss ideas. Demi was determined not to have your typical maternity photos and I was excited. We tossed around a few ideas and decided on a nautical theme and to end with a picnic in the park.

I also knew this was going to be a stylish maternity session because Demi doesn't like to wear traditional maternity clothes. She wanted to maintain her style and boy did she. She was the hottest, cutest, most adorable pregnant woman I have ever seen. Any girl who can rock 4 inch platforms on a typical day has my heart, but add an adorable baby bump and I'm sold! She brought along her sister-in-law to help coordinate outfits and let me just say, I wanted to take her home with me so she can dress me everyday. I think I'm going to start sending all my clients her way before their shoot. =)

Enough babbling....onto the pictures!

P.S.- Chris you totally rocked it too. Demi's lucky to have such a handsome man as the perfect accessory.

Baby Bump Makes Four

Alia and Alex have the cutest little boy, Andre, and are getting ready to welcome yet another baby boy to the family. I couldn't be happier for them. Alia is such a sweet and kind person. Seeing her with her family today, showed me a different side of her I hadn't seen before. She showed patience and tenderness. I can't wait to see the newest addition to this already adorable family.

 

Movies in the Park

Beaufort, SC has a special place in my heart with its huge moss covered trees and old brick buildings. It's rustic and small town qualities instantly put me at ease. I would love to live in a place just like this one day with our kids running through empty fields. But for now I'm in sunny south florida with its unbearable humidity and packed roadways.

Last week I went to beautiful Beaufort to do a stylized shoot with my good friend and talented photographer, Misty Smith. She dreamt up this amazing idea of having a couple go on a date to watch movies in the park. I instantly fell in love with the concept and jumped on board. Her friends, Megan and Zack, were our fabulous models and faced the swarm of mosquitoes with smiles. These two are so in love and so beautiful together that it was a delight to be able to photograph them.

Until next time SC I will day dream of picnics in the breeze underneath your big beautiful trees...

Bridal Shoot

The lovely ladies at the Academy of Glam invited me out to photograph the newest class's bridal make-up. I love me some bride so of course I was excited. The make-up artists did a fabulous job. The weather gods were not cooperating with us at first, but toward the end there was a break in the clouds and the sun peeked through.

One of the artists got to do two models and since she did traditional bridal with her first model we decided to do a punk bride for her second look. And she totally rocked it! I LOVED the way everything pulled together. Thanks ladies for making it a great shoot and tons of fun!
