Orlando Family Photographer | My Number One Tip for a Successful Family Photo Session!

Want to know my number one tip for a successful family photo session? It’s SO simple. Just stay connected!


Now…this sounds like a funny tip…but by always staying connected to your loved ones during your session, that love and sense of togetherness will shine through in your images. ⁠

So, if your child or partner is standing by you, hold their hand, touch their hair, pick them up, or graze their back or shoulder with your hand. ⁠

The sense of love and intimacy is elevated and never looks awkward. So, there’s no need to worry about what to do with your hands during your session! ⁠Use them to stay connected to your family.

Sunrise Beach Family Session | South Florida Family Photographer

Summer is coming and my sister is expecting, so I plan to spend TONS of time in South Florida awaiting my nieces arrival (and snuggling her when she gets here, of course!).

Every time I am in South Florida, I LOVE getting my camera on beautiful families as the sun rises. I know the word 'sunrise' may seem scary, but I promise you that the colors will be beautiful, your family will have fun, AND then you have the full day to relax and enjoy the beach.⁠

Would you like to know if my schedule will work out for a beach session? If you're not on my email list, be sure to sign up asap and keep your eyes on my feed this summer for beach availability.

Birdie Turns ONE!

One of of my favorite things about my job is when I get the opportunity to photograph milestone sessions from past newborn clients! There is something so special about documenting a baby grow. Oh, what a difference on year makes!!

Did you know that, with every newborn collection booked, you get 20% off any milestone session during baby’s first year? Some parents use it for a 6-month session, but most use it when their baby is about to turn one! I just love how Birdie’s one year photos turned out.

The “S” Family of Three | Costa Rica Lifestyle Photographer

This sweet mama was one of the first friends I made when we moved to Santa Ana, Costa Rica, last year. We immediately clicked because were both from the United States and also had little girls around the same age.  We soon learned of each other’s obsession with Lilly Pulitzer and the rest is history.

We had been trying to schedule some family photography for a few months, but our schedules weren’t meshing. You can imagine my excitement when she snagged the spot for my last Family Play session of 2016 in Costa Rica.

Mom had a perfect spot in Belen with an amazing view that she selected for her session. When I saw it in person, I was SO excited. While the location was stunning, it was her adorable one-year-old daughter that stole the show. From her quirky personality, adorable expressions and the outfit – my goodness – perfection.

I absolutely love photographing children at this age. All of us had fun and played hard at this Family Play session, and I got some amazing images so this family can remember these moments forever. Here are just a few of my favorites.

If you’re interested in some custom family photography in Costa Rica, I’d love to hear from you! CONTACT ME today to learn more about how I can document some memories for your family.
