Bok Tower Gardens Central Florida Engagement Session

You guys…my baby sister got married!


Bonnie and Quinn are high-school sweethearts and nobody makes a more loving, quirky, and amazing match as these two. I couldn’t have asked for a better husband-to-be for my little sis. In the words of Forest Gump, they go together “like peas and carrots”. Even though the ceremony was SUPER COLD and windy, and I was so anxious about giving a speech in front of a crowd, I really loved seeing my sister tie the knot. It was incredibly special. I CAN’T WAIT for them to get photos back.


Cheers to Bonnie & Quinn! Enjoy a handful of photographs from their engagement <3.

I have a (somewhat) funny story to tell about the day of this family's newborn session.

The day of their newborn session, it was POURING. After quickly packing the car, I let Carys know I was on the way. No more than 1.5 miles down the road from my house, the tire pressure light came on...you know where this is headed...

So I pull over, get out, and can hear the loud hissing that is my tire most definitely leaking.
I jump back in and make it a block to the closest parking lot. When I go to check the tire again, it was completely flat. Determined to change the tire myself, I tried and tried, in the rain, to loosen the bolts. I finally gave in and tried calling my husband. When I couldn't reach him, and with about 5 minutes until the session was supposed to start, I went ahead and called Carys to let her know I was dealing with a flat and would make it as soon as I could. 

It wasn't 5 minutes later that she called and said that her husband, Doug, was on the way! 
Sure enough, he pulled up soon after, and changed the tire without one complaint and without making me feel like a damsel in distress (and SO quickly might I add). Keep in mind he was all ready for the photo shoot- hair done and all! 

After we were all changed and dry, the session took place, just a bit later than originally planned. 

I hope this story provides a little insight into this family's compassionate, understanding, and loving traits. They also happen to do amazing work at Heart of Florida Chiropractic!  Maybe Doug should open an on-call-tire-changing-business. 

Anyways, here are just a few from our session together, with their precious Rainbow Baby!

Each year, I like to do a little mini session. This year's Cozy Christmas Minis were pj-themed, and turned out to be a ton of fun! Here are a few from last week's mini sessions with these two cuties.
