Bath

Key-West-Lifestyle-Photography-Baby

I recently saw a similar image on another photographer’s blog.  And since I have a squishy yummy baby (aka Silas), I decided that I had to have one of these images for myself.  It is actually one in a series of him taking a bath in the kitchen sink.  Oh how I love this image.

Watching them grow and seeing the world through amazed little eyes is fascinating.  As a photographer, I am lucky enough to capture those moments with my camera.  This bath is one of those things, in this moment, he has recently fallen in love with his hands.  See how he’s holding them?  This passage in time is fleeting.  I am really looking forward to this spring and photographing Silas’s first dip into the ocean in Key West (Fort Zachary Taylor is calling my name!)

Family Fun at the Beach

December 4, 2009
Good Morning,

I often have the pleasure of sessions at Bahia Honda State Park.  It is such a beautiful place, I really feel lucky to live so close.  If you are visiting us in the Florida Keys, you should check it out.  The beaches are stunning, there are nature paths, a butterfly garden, kayak rentals, camping…ah I can go on and on.

Bahia Honda State Park is located Oceanside
on US Hwy. 1 and MM 37 on Bahia Honda Key

We were so lucky, this was one of those days.  You know the kind, slight breeze, low 80’s, soft sun… oh the perfection.  And it wasn’t just the weather.  These two beautiful blue eyed darlings make being a Lower Keys Photographer so much fun!

Marathon, FL Christmas Session

November 17, 2009

Beautiful girls, as always!

A traditional portrait session in front of your own Christmas tree is adorable.

Baby Silas was born August 28th! After 6 long weeks of bed rest, I was so excited to be able to see and hold the wee baby! Of course his siblings take every opportunity to sneak a hug in too.

As with all newborn sessions, I took his portraits within a few days, curly newborns are my favorite. I can’t believe it’s already been a little over a month since I delivered him. Your time with a newborn is really limited, they grow so fast! As I look at him nestled into his moses basket next to me, he already looks so different. We are enjoying each and every day, all the snuggles!

And for me, I’m slowly coming off of maternity leave. I will only be booking a couple of sessions a week through October.

I will be at the Key West Preschool Co-Op on Saturday for their Yard Sale fundraiser. If you’re in town, stop by and see me!

This was the most fun session! The colors, the beautiful children, ah even the weather. I had a hard time choosing which images to share on the blog, because there are just so many awesome images to choose from!
