Heidi's Trash the Dress Session

My daughter Heidi and her family came for Christmas. She volunteered to do a Trash the Dress Session with her sister's wedding dress while she was here. We did some nice shots first (she's been married 8 years and has two kids and I wasn't into bridals way back then)and then we did a little surfing! Enjoy the slideshow below.

Brody's First Photo Shoot!

I captured Brody with my camera before he was born! We did family pictures at the beach just a few days before he was came into the world (see the Rosenthal beach pictures further down the posts). Now, at 3 weeks, it was time to capture the innocence of a newborn! What better time than Christmas! We'll have to add his older sister into the mix when he's a little older! Enjoy the slideshow below!

Stansbury Christmas Photos

My friends Vicki and Steve had all of their kids in town recently. They were able to get us in to the Palm Cove Marina in Jacksonville to take some great photos! We used the marshes, beautiful yachts and a cute little bait and fish house for backdrops. Their three girls and extended family were so easy and fun to work with. The grandkids were such troopers. It was freezing and they were patient and did just what we asked! Enjoy the slideshow below!

A Cousin Christmas

Cousins Ryan & Hailey came over for some adorable Christmas photos this week! Ryan is the one on the tricycle - Hailey's still a little small for that sort of thing but seemed to enjoy her bathtub! Taking photos of little ones is always challenging yet one of the funnest things around! After a little time out for a quite snack and a 5 minute nap, little Hailey was well behaved and posed just perfectly! We almost lost Ryan backwards on the tricycle...she was having too much fun! Enjoy the slideshow below.

Merrick's Christmas Photos

Merrick is Gwendolyn's cousin (see her slideshow below). Merrick is the baby in the pregnancy series and newborn series I did with his mom Bekah. He's growing up and one must document the growing up part! Enjoy!

Gwendolyn Christmas Photos

Gwendolyn is a grandchild of the Cokers. I got to see how beautiful she was at the beach and wanted to do some more shots of her. Her mom had some Christmas outfits and I had just found the perfect bathtub and tricycle! What eyes...what a smile!

Coker Family on Thanksgiving

Our good friends, the Cokers, had all of their kids in town (some from Italy) for Thanksgiving! We took that rare occasion to have some fun at the beach and grab a few shots in the process! Enjoy the slideshow below.
