Rhodes Family | Spring 2014: South Florida Family Portraits

Jake is the amazing youth pastor at my church, and a couple of weeks ago I had the honor of photographing his awesome and adorable family. I headed out to the Boynton Beach Inlet with Jake, Kristin, and Baby Caleb around sunset for some spring family photos and beach fun. The love that this family has for each other is just so incredible to capture! Caleb…

Chase: Delray Beach Back to School Session

Yesterday I shot one of my most favorite subjects, my little brother! Chase is 13 years old and an awesome kid all around. I love his style and that he is so multi-talented. He’s been begging me to take back-to-school photos of him for about a month now, and so we headed out to Delray Beach yesterday afternoon to take some fun shots. Chase…

Puppy Time!

Sometimes you just need to get out there and take some photos of the furry mammals in your life, because they brighten your day and love you unconditionally. Our family dog, Tina, is the best. Loyal, loving, and silly, she can brighten even the most melancholy of days by forcibly putting her head in your lap and refusing to give up until you pet…

Michelle Class of 2014: Downtown Delray, South Florida Portrait Session

I am going to start this post with a warning: there are about to be a LOT of photos in this post. I just can’t help myself. Michelle’s senior session was just so darn fun and she’s gorgeous. Seriously, the camera loves her! I’ve known Michelle since she was about 4 years old (Eep! That makes me old.) and as soon as I knew I…

Salemme Family: Delray Beach Family Session

I’ve known the Salemme family since I was just 16 years old. Thyme was my high school math tutor, and for the past 11 years I have watched her beautiful family continue to grow. Now there are six Salemme kiddos, plus mom, dad, & grandma! For the Salemme’s session, we headed to Atlantic Dunes Park in Delray Beach because it offers the best of…

What do I wear to a Portrait Session?

One of the things I often get asked by clients is, “What do I wear to my portrait session?” The answer depends on a few things, and hopefully this post will help to ease some of the stress associated with choosing what you’ll wear in your photos. Solo Sessions are the simplest to plan because your clothing options do not depend on any other…

Ilany & Ray: Hugh Taylor Birch State Park Children’s Session

I had the pleasure of shooting these two adorable kiddos at a new location, Hugh Taylor Birch State Park. This large state park is located in downtown Fort Lauderdale right across from the beach off of Sunrise Blvd. The first thing that surprised me was that the park was huge! I spent about 30 mins before they arrived driving the 2.5 mile (one way)…

National Dance Day: Boynton Beach Inlet

Saturday, July 27th was National Dance Day, and I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate then to go and take some test pictures with my gorgeous sister. We headed to the Boynton Beach Inlet Saturday evening, even though it had been raining all day and the weather didn’t look good. Luckily, the weather actually held up and the light was incredible! First,…

Carla: Bethesda by the Sea Ballet Session

When I was 2 and a 1/2 years old, my mother put me in my first ballet/tap combo class in New York and I was hooked. Since then, dance has always been a passion of mine, so whenever I get a chance to photograph a dancer, I consider it a joy. Carla is a dancer at Boca Ballet Studio and one of the most…
