Sneak Peek { Hayden } - Fort Myers Newborn Photographer

I’m going to post Just one more sneak peek before I take off for a R&R with my family at the Magic Kingdom. :

I just could not sneak away without giving this family a little peek to hold them over through the Thanksgiving holiday. I’m thinking perhaps little Hayden is destine to become a great explorer, you see, sleep was the last thing on this little guy’s mind the day of our session. That’s okay though, he was super cute regardless! Thanks for being so patient Mom & Dad, I promise, lots of good things to come upon my return.

Have a safe and happy holiday everyone! :grin:

Sneak Peek { Riley & Family } - Estero Family Portraits

This most adorable young family has been patiently waiting for their proofs while we wrap up the holiday sessions. I’m hoping they enjoy this little sneak peek as it’s only a very small sampling of all the adorable images to come. Little Riley was such a joy to photograph! Mom mentioned before the session that Riley is very expressive and even though she’s not talking she speaks volumes with her facial expressions. Well, she was certainly not kidding about that!! I’ve been giggling my way through the images and finding it hard to pick just a few for the blog, I can only imagine how challenging it’s going to be for Mom & Dad to pick favorites.

Sneak Peek { Wade & Jake } - Naples Child Photography

With this post I am officially ’sneak peeking’ the last of the holiday sessions and all sessions with guaranteed holiday delivery will be online before the end of the day. Unfortunately I did not have the opportunity to sneak peek all of the lovely children I’ve photographed during the fast paced holiday portrait season but I do plan to continue sharing images from those sessions in the coming weeks. So, if you’d hoped to catch a glimpse of your session on the blog - stay tuned - we’re not done yet!! :)

Now, let me introduce to you Wade & Jake of Naples. This is my second year photographing these two adorable young men and I do believe, aside from one little toy-in-river mishap which I will not go into today :???: , we had a wonderfully fun session together. I’m going to bet that first image becomes a favorite for big brother Wade. He sorta looked at me like I’d lost my mind when I asked him if he wanted to climb the tree. Once he got up there he decided that it was a pretty cool place to hang out and kept asking to go back up the big tree the rest of the morning. I don’t know how well you can tell on the web sized image but little Jake is pointed up at his big brother in the shot because he wanted to go up there with him. *giggle* So cute!

Ok, so the last sneak peek of the season was a big one, I just couldn’t help myself! Oh and um, Mom, *giggle* better you than me! There is no way I could pick a favorite. Looks like you’ve got some tough decisions to make. Hey, don’t blame me, it’s not my fault your children are so adorable! :lol:

Sneak Peek { Kaitlyn & Kenzie } - Sanibel Island Family Photography

It was certainly beautiful on Sanibel today, I couldn’t help but pull out the camera and snap off a few shots before my clients arrived. I think the planets aligned just perfectly for this family. When I arrived on the island it was hot and oh so bright. Just look at that big beautiful blue sky surrounding the old Sanibel Lighthouse….

The sun managed to make it’s way behind a few clouds as I was shooting which opened up a rare opportunity for me to capture a few shots of the family with the old lighthouse in the background. Normally the sun is right next to the lighthouse and much to bright to be suitable for portraits (unless of course I was working with a team of assistants and had those portable strobes I’ve been eying *hint*hint*). ;) Today I had the pleasure of working with a very a lovely family vacationing all the way from Canada. While we were chatting I learned that tomorrow is actually Mom’s birthday!! So, happy birthday Mom! I hope you enjoy this little sneak peek into our session, the girls were delightful! I can’t wait to share the rest of the images with you all! :)

Proof Update for the {Slices of Life} Mini Sessions | Sneak Peek Jaiden & Eliana

First, a quick status update for my Slices of Life mini session clients who are patiently awaiting their proofs. All Slices of Life proofs will be online Friday November 14th. Clients will be notified through email just as soon as the galleries are active with complete instructions on viewing and ordering. :)

Now for the fun stuff…I just have to sneak peek a few of Jaiden & Eliana. It seems like only yesterday little Eli was a sweet newborn all snuggled up in Daddy’s arms. Look at her now, growing up so quickly! At 2 years old she looks exactly like her big sister looked when we first met more than 3 years ago. Clearly good looks run in the family!

Sneak Peek {Dominic} - Naples Beach Child Photography

Just one more sneak peek this weekend then I’m going to turn in because I’ve got an insane amount of editing to do this week in an effort to get everyone their proofs in time for the holiday delivery. :shock:

You all need to search the blog for Dominic and you’ll likely find posts dating back to when this little fella was only 6 months old and barely able to sit up on his own. Now, as we got together for his 4 year session it’s clear that there is no slowing this little man down! His sweet baby sis, Brianna has just as much energy to burn. Their spunk, energy and need to explore certainly keep me on my toes but I wouldn’t have it any other way! Just look at how sweet they are, it melts my heart.

Sneak Peek {Tonya} - Fort Myers Maternity Portraits

Greetings all! I promised this Mom to be a sneak peek before the arrival of her baby and considering the fact that she was 38 (yes, T-H-I-R-T-Y-E-I-G-H-T!! ) weeks pregnant during our session I knew that would be a tough promise to keep but one that she would surely treasure as she made her way to labor and delivery.

Allow me to introduce to you Tonya, 38 weeks pregnant with her little bundle of love and scheduled to deliver this coming Monday. Woohoo!! How exciting! Tonya, you are one truly beautiful lady, inside and out, in short - you ROCK Momma!! :grin: I can’t wait to meet the new arrival!
