This family is so sweet! I really loved seeing all of their sweet interactions with each other. They just really enjoyed all being together

There were sweet songs

And beautiful little girls

Who really adored each other

And one adorable ham of a little boy who is loved by all

I really enjoyed my time with your family and had such a wonderful morning with you guys!

I think one of the best things in life is seeing your family happy. Craziness can be going on in the world, but all is alright in your world when everyone in your house is happy. I have known this mama since high school. She contacted me what seems like forever ago, saying they hoped to be pregnant soon and would be in my area for vacation this year. All went well and it was so wonderful to hear they had successfully conceived! So here is this happy, happy family waiting on the new family member It was so great to see you again and I hope you love your gigantic sneak peek.

They are such a beautiful couple and it was even more special to watch, because he *really* adores her.

I loved watching them together!

Easy to see why, she is gorgeous!

The beach made such a gorgeous backdrop for our shoot

And they have this little boy

Who is a total Daddy’s boy

He went fishing

And showed off his catch of the day!

He adored the umbrella

And I adored him!

I hope you love your sneak peek! And to think these are only the tip of the iceberg on this session- such a gorgeous one! Thanks guys

This session started with a woman named Val. I saw on Matilda Jane’s Blog a post about her. They were having a fundraiser for her and her two chickens. I read Val’s blog with tears in my eyes and knew immediately I wanted to help. So I emailed one of her besties Jami that day who was the amazing organizer of it all. I felt so awkward emailing Jami with me clear the heck in Florida asking to donate a session to help. But the bidding went well on it and shortly after it closed, I got the cutest email ever from Emily Lots of emails went back and forth and phone calls were made to get their session all planned out. They came to my area from Kentucky at the end of April and their session was shot on the Monday before I flew out to Colorado.

On Thursday morning I woke up in Jami’s house to Val standing in the kitchen. Total full circle moment. Val is such a beautiful, sweet woman! I miss her already.

Thank you so much Emily for your giving heart. I absolutely loved meeting you, your family, and Megan and her family. You guys are fabulous There are so many great pictures from this session. I wanted to give you a peek of their adorable children

How cute is this little girl?? Of course she was outfitted in Matilda Jane

This cutie pie wasn’t so sure of having a photo session and I bet her mama will be so surprised I have this of her. So darn cute!

Such a beautiful little one!

This adorable little guy and his dad gave me so many great moments I had such a hard time picking which one to share!

This picture reminds me of Peter Pan ‎”Second star to the right and straight on ’til morning.”

And I had to show a picture of his face, he was so cute and such a good sport for me!

Thank you so much for such a great afternoon!

Whew! It feels like it’s been ages since I have blogged!

Things got a little crazy after my last blog post. I won the Matilda Jane photo love!! So insane and still hard for me to really believe. You know when you want something really really bad and then you get it? It’s surreal! I just can’t wrap my head around me winning with over 1,ooo photographers entering the contest. And everything went nuts afterwards. My personal email got hundreds of emails alone. Yeah… insane! THANK YOU to everyone for your votes and support. I wish I could show ya’ll my heart and see how grateful I am.

My BFF Francis and I board a plane on Wednesday to fly out to the Matilda Jane fall photo shoot in Colorado. And I have totally been fretting over what to wear What do you wear to something with such a fabulous little girl’s clothing designer? I have some Matilda Jane for me, is it too cheesy to wear that? Neither of us have ever really spent much time in Colorado so we are really excited to check it out. I can only imagine how beautiful it will all be! And then there is the flying part. I am not a very good flyer. At all. The last time I flew was when we came back to live in the states after being in Japan for 3 years. You would think with all the flying I did when I was younger it wouldn’t bother me. But it does. The take offs, the landings, and don’t even get me started on the turbulence. Thank goodness Frannie will be there with me!

I wish I wasn’t such a weenie.

This month is going to be a fun one! It starts off with a shoot today that is going to be super cute! I am so excited to shoot it and share it with everyone. It will be a beach session like you have never seen before Then there’s the Colorado trip and then another trip down to the Lake City area to shoot an up and coming country band that is about to go national. And also several more client shoots that are going to be fabulous! I have some great things to share, but it will probably have to wait till I get back from Colorado.

And so a blog post isn’t much without some pictures! I hope you love this little love story as much as I do.

These were taken a couple weeks back with my little girl Katie and Francis’s little boy Brock. There are 3 parts to the shoot, this was just the first one. Katie’s outfit is Matilda Jane and her headband, as well as the flower lapel/clippie on Brock’s shirt are from Sweetly Fallen. The rest of the shoot is darling, kites and sunshine

Once upon a time, Katie was doing girly and twirly things

When it suddenly hit her. “I have no flowers”, she said sadly

So she came up with a plan! If she posed…

And pranced!

Someone would surely be charmed by her cuteness and would have flowers for her!

A dashing young fellow showed up

Why, it was Brock!

And he had a surprise for Katie…

So he mustered up some courage and walked up to her.

And proudly handed them over!

“Do you like them Katie”????

And she did!!

It made Brock beam from ear to ear

The end!

This gorgeous baby girl was over 9 lbs at birth and was already so squishy! I adored her She didn’t want to sleep much for us, but we certainly made due and captured some really beautiful pictures of her (and her darling big sister and her sister’s pillow pets). For now, I will peek baby A in all her adorable glory!

Isn’t she gorgeous??

Yesterday afternoon I met up with these gorgeous little boys! You’ve seen them before 3 other times on the blog. First as a family, then in a gorgeous maternity shoot, and then this little guy’s newborn shoot. I love documenting this family’s memories for them! And feel so honored to do so. It was a little bit chilly but was a gorgeous day! I can’t WAIT for spring to get here. I freeze my hiney off in these North Florida winters (stop snickering you northerners! We get 40 degree day temperatures sometimes ).

Back to these beautiful boys I loved the way their session turned out!

It never fails at almost every session involving children, a parent will look over at me and say I am so sorry Tori they aren’t co-operating!. And always I say back Puh-lease! You should see my 3 year old! As cute as my little girl is, she is by far my hardest subject. I can’t even begin to tell you how many back of the head shots I have of her. Or those with no eye contact. And when I would get her to look, it was usually a picture of a silly face. *sigh*

Things have slowly been changing over the last couple of months for her though. She really adores her brother who is only 17 months older than her. And he really likes to have his pictures taken! So when she sees him hamming it up for me she’ll say My turn! but then would do everything but look at me. So frustrating!

I am not sure what happened the other day, but she came to me asking to play photoshoot Well, I ran all over the house to quickly throw a set up together before she changed her mind. She’s been really loving “ponies” (pony tails) in her hair and it really tickled her when I made her some pony rolls in her hair. I am not sure if it was the pony rolls or what, but whatever it was I will take it!

Looking at these makes me all teary. To finally have some pictures of her is so pricelss to me

Baby Idol 2011 {Panama City Photographer}

The biggest and hottest radio station in town, Island 106, holds a great contest every year called Baby Idol. Parents get to submit pictures of their darling babies and children aged 3 and under in hopes of their child being voted by listeners as Baby Idol! Several years back, my own son won

Isn’t he precious? Look at those cheeks!

For comparisons, here is that same little boy Crazy how fast time goes!

He won a great savings bond from Innovations Credit Union!

So I got to thinking. Why don’t *I* donate a session and collection prize package to baby idol? And so I did! I can’t wait to see who wins- I am so so excited! You can sign your baby up HERE (<—- clickie there). Good luck!!!!

Also, don’t forget to become an Island Insider to stay up to date on all of their great contests and happenings!
