So I think this is a pretty cool story. When I was first introduced into the world of photographers that blog, I found a blogger in Michigan who was just starting out her photography business, Bliss Photography, taking classes and blogging about it. I felt compelled to drop her an email to introduce myself and share that I was going through a similar experience. Since then, we've become Facebook friends and comment here and there on each other's blogs. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, I get an email from Mishelle, letting me know she will be in my area and would like to set up a session. I was so excited to finally get to met her and at the same time super duper nervous to be shooting a photographer. Very nerve racking!! We had a blast in Ybor earlier this week.
Meet Mishelle, Jeff and Jillian!
My favorite!!
Mishelle wanted some "I'm a photographer" shots...
The Itsy-Bitsy Spider according to Jillian:
Piglet of course.
And of course, Mishelle couldn't possibly NOT bring her camera out to play. Check out the picture she took of me in action. I love it!

What an absolutely amazing day today turned out to be. It was perfect for pictures...big blue skies, gorgeous light, the sun peeking out just enough. I'm so glad that I had someone to shoot...with my camera, of course. I had a super fun family session today. Posting this entry was super hard because there were so many pictures that I loved, it was nearly impossible to narrow it down.
Meet the star of the show: Derek. A couple of things you need to know about him: he does not believe in walking, he runs everywhere; he fell like 4 times during our session and didn't cry once, he's a man's man; and the last thing is pretty obvious, he's too darn cute for words!
He blew me a kiss and gave me a high five *swooooon* I think he likes me!
Peek-a-boo!
The next 2 pictures are my absolute favvoooorites from today. I can't decide which one I like best!
Julie and Wilkin brought someone to watch Derek so that we could get some pictures of just the two of them..
I am so loving my clients lately...last week I had a cool Mustang and boxers and today I got a baseball stadium! Wilkin is a baseball player and since that's such a huge part of their lives, Julie had the great idea to shoot at the stadium. How could I say no??
Putting the batting cages to good use!
Oh gosh..I love this one also!
Yea, yea..You're hot and you make beautiful babies, stop rubbing it in!
I was in the men's locker room today and it was awesome..don't tell Alex!
Tomorrow I'm headed to Orlando for a mini photography workshop. I'm so excited to meet some very cool people in the photography field and catch up with some I've already met!

The Alamos

I'm starting this blog post a little different than others, with a picture first. Why? Well, this picture just makes me happy and it makes me smile...and it's my blog and I make the rules! This picture is up there as one of my favorite family portraits that I have ever shot. I'm dying to know what little Daniela finds so funny! It was so difficult picking which pictures to blog. There are so many that I love! I narrowed it down to a few...
Meet The Alamos. I had them climbing, jumping, running...and they were game for all of it! This is probably the only time I appreciated the "cold" weather. The birds were just hanging out in the sand because the water was too cold. Made for some awesome pictures!
I can't stand how much I love this picture. Meet Daniela.
Meet Estefania. I kind of love her name and she's kind of gorgeous.

Baby Gabriel's back on the blog! He's still rocking out his mohawk and even has a little mustache. He's a man's man!
He's gotten so big!
I dare you not to smile!!
Is it wrong that I think babies look adorable even when they cry?
This one's my favorite!

OH-MY-LANTA! Has it really been close to 3 weeks since I updated my blog!?!? How did that happen? Well, I promise you there will be a lot more posts coming soon! Today was my first set of holiday mini sessions. I got to see some new faces and some familiar faces...My first sneak peek is of the Corinti Family.
Look at those eyes!
Meet Cross and Roman....
I think the grass was tickling Roman because he couldn't stop laughing when he laid down
Love love loveeeee this one...
This one might be my favorite..
So today I learned two very important things. One: You need a heck of a lot of energy to run around chasing two boys and Two: I'm fat. Yup..you heard me right. Roman called me fat. His mom says that he picked up that little saying and goes around telling people that they are fat. That makes me feel better. But not really...Excuse me while I go dust off my gym membership.
Something tells me there is never a dull moment in this household!
I can't wait to order their Christmas cards!! I'll make sure to post pictures when I get them to share with you!
