| Oh how blessed I am by this beautiful family! This is their second sweet daughter ready for her First Communion. How I've loved getting to know them over the years. Isn't she so gorgeous? I'm in love with that smile that she gives and how her eyes twinkle with it! |
 |
Oh sweet girl - what a lucky little one! This is an amazing family I've been blessed to get to know when they welcomed their first little one. What a wonderful big sister she is going to make! She already seems like a pro and absolutely in love with her new little sister. |
 |
| This session was an absolute blast -- love how sweet this family is! They are so laid back and easy -going….. made for a great session. Loved A's ideas and her persistance in getting this session on the books! A definitely stands for Amazing in this case! Can't wait to see how these images are used! |
 |
| IN LOVE with this shot…… lookin' towards paradise |
 |
| Oh what a sweetheart!! Love the banner and chalkboard mom got for this session! I've loved getting to know this family over the last year! Can't believe how fast time flies!:) |
 |
| Cute cousins!! The suspenders are too much!!:) |
 |
| Words cannot describe how much I loved this day with these beautiful families - being helped by the most amazing assistant/friend that I so feel lucky to have had at my side. So many of these families have come to be dear friends over these years - getting to know their children and families as they have grown up…. It almost felt like that family Thanksgiving reunion where you get to see everyone you hadn't seen for a while and catch up and remember how much you enjoyed being around together. My heart was definitely filled with a total overfill of love and respect and gratitude…. THANK YOU for spending this day letting me capture this moment in time for your families and signing up for this very special holiday photo session day at one of my favorite locations in Miami! How blessed I am by you all! ….. now please enjoy all these beautiful images of these ridiculously gorgeous families! |

| This one above is for Dad! … and below, well, it's just cool! (and so are these two gorgeous -from-the-inside-out girls!) How lucky I've been to see these two most gracious beauties grow into stunning young women. When I think of what Jackie O or Audrey Hepburn must have been like in real life, I think of these girls and their parents. They just have something that makes them special. |
 |
| ok really….. they were my comedy break…. not sure what it is about these two guys, but they are like their own comedy routine and I think I laugh and giggle from the moment they walk into the door until at least 10 minutes after they have walked out the door!! Oh Toothless - you steal my heart! |
 |
| Old soul as he is, he makes me laugh as well and I love his personality and can't wait to see where life takes him…. because I'm pretty sure I'm going to get to say, "I knew him when!" |
 |
| This is the ridiculously beautiful girl that my print lab (whom I'm sure sees thousands of photos a day) actually commented on when we had something printed as a large piece for the family… they called ME to say they couldn't believe how stunning she was! She truly is gorgeous…. but then, it runs in the family as you'll see below! I met this family over 5 years ago to start capturing memories of them -- they had only three of these precious beings… they feel like family at this point and I can't describe how much they mean to me - Missing in this photo is their most gorgeous mom --= have to save something for the holiday card!! |
 |
| H is ready for the Board room….. he's just practicing here looking like some accomplished professional! |
 |
| can't even begin to say how much I adore this family….. you are looking at three little people that will soon be running the world - led by the littlest one! When she takes over, we're all gonna have fun! |
 |
| really….. this is just such a brothers photo…. can't stand how cute it is!! |
 |
| oh how I love this! and these two beauties! |
 |
| I'm not sure when these two turned into young MEN!!! AAAAHHHHHH….. stop! How fast they are growing up! I remember when the younger brother wouldn't even barely let me catch a photo of him….. this day he wanted his own mini-session all to himself (below you'll see why he probably deserved to have one!) |
 |
| I don't even know where to start to say how AMAZING you two look! wow! Thank you, L, for coming quietly into my life and becoming someone I absolutely cherish to have and consider a dear friend! Your positive spirit and energy make this world a better place for us all….. never change! |
 |
| see what I mean???!! |
 |
| Oh my goodness! this one will be melting hearts all along the way of his life! what a stud muffin! (and so sweet!) |
 |
| love this boy's photo! you can tell how much he just loves those two! |
 |
| ok… this was too much fun with the addition to this already perfect family! |
 |
| no, I did NOT pay these people to come in front of my camera! They just look like this and I got lucky enough to get to know them! Their mom is equally beautiful. Coming from Oregon, I sometimes need a little West coast break and I consider A my mini west coast break whenever I get to see her… she is grounded and gracious and funny and wonderful! |
 |
| ahhhhhh….. doesn't that smile just squeeze at your heart!?? What a doll! |
 |
| I have no words for this….. hello! |
 |
| So if there is a pure form of goodness, these four are made of it. Truly one of the nicest families ever and someone you know you can trust with all your heart. Their beauty is only a mere reflection of how sincere and wonderful they are on the inside. |
 |
| oh how I love this photo! |
 |
| Happy Anniversary to these two! Could't be a nicer couple! I'm so blessed to have gotten to know their family over the years and not sure why, but their little one greets me every time as if I'm her long lost best friend in the whole world and she just melts my heart! |
