This is my fave family!! Love these people! 🙂 We ventured up to Weedon Island, here in St.Pete, which is one of my favorite places to go and enjoy nature. There is always a surprise waiting around a corner, like a snake for instance. Love this place. 😉 I love how this shoot turned out. Love the colors they wear and all the greenery. Simply beautiful if you ask me.

It is a challenge to photograph families, I am not going to say anything different, but it is also so much fun. I always feel like I did not accomplish what I came for, like I did not get the shots I needed, and so on. I think that is because family sessions are full of energy and life and fun, that I don’t  have time to notice that I get great shots. So it is very rewarding afterwards to be able to breathe out and realize that I did get the shots!  🙂

This beautiful family was kind enough 😉 to let me photograph them on a lovely day in downtown Saint Petersburg. I met this woman at the park. Surprise! I met all my dear friends at the park with our kids. LOVE IT! WE have children the same age and we see each other several times a week now. LOVE IT! We had a fun time together doing this shoot, and downtown really is so fantastic for lively, vivid and fun shots.

Had the opportunity to get my camera on three beautiful girls at one moment. We did a beach shoot. At my favorite beach here in Florida, or park I shall say, Fort De Soto. I cannot get enough of this place and am so grateful that I live so close to this beautiful, serene and quiet place. I took the girls there and we ventured around to a few of the awesome places down there. Visited the fort which gives plenty or fabulous photo opportunity. We ended the shoot at the beach so that we could catch the sunset while we were at it. 😉

Took these beautiful images of this gorgeous girl in the beautiful Arizona nature. At sunset, the colors turned different shades of orange and red and everything was glowing and looked so much prettier that during the day time. What also came out was the tarantulas. Scary!!!!!!!!!!!! But also quite amazing. I do NOT like spiders and here I am shooting amongst them. They were literally everywhere. LOL! Great experience. I also learned that tarantulas are not poisonous. I had always thought they were, so after this knowledge and being surrounded by them I sort of, kind of like them now. 🙂

These awesome guys was thinking how great it would be to give the rest of the family photos of them for Christmas. Well, couldn’t agree on a much better gift that that. Here are some images we took earlier this fall in Sweden. Gorgeous greenery!!

Photographed these two cuties earlier this fall in Sweden. Aren’t they so cute. I think you can really tell they were rocking this shoot. 🙂 And I can so see little sister looking up to big sis for some sisterly love and support. Sweet captures!

Had the opportunity to photograph this little cutie back in September while in Sweden. We did a inside/outside shoot, which is so much fun. Capturing the little ones in different environments really gives me a chance to be more creative. I just love window light. Is it not gorgeous? We photographed on a rainy dark day but with big windows and the light from the right direction it can still be really nice.

What a sweet little girl this is! Photographed her and her mother ( a long time friend) while I was in Sweden this summer. I absolutely love the woodsy shots. It is just SO pretty in Sweden, and I am not just saying that because that is where I am from. No, it really is so pretty and clean, and the air is yummy. SO fresh. This little young girl was so happy and cooperative. I hope to get a chance to photograph her again, a little older. Sara, your daughter is sooooooooooooooooo sweet!

I wanted to create sort of a magical, magical and magical shoot. Well I am not sure I totally succeeded, but I also did not give myself very much time to make it happen. It was sort of come on, now is the time, grabbed my niece who always models for me with no complaints! 🙂 The night was beautiful as well as the setting. I am so happy with these images, magical or not. 🙂
