Summer turns 5 | St. Augustine Lifestyle Family Photographer

in

Nugget turns FIVE in a couple of weeks. She has taught me so so much during her half a decade here on earth. I really wanted to capture her spirit for her 5 year old pictures. While I love all the pictures of her from years past, I wanted something different.  I didn't want the same smiles that are all over the walls. She is growing so fast, changing so much. I want to remember her - how she is. I want to to remember WHO she is. This year has been a learning process, as all years are. Learning to let her be herself. Learning to let go of control when she decides she wants to wear sneakers with her dress. Letting go when she decided she wanted short hair even though I loved that her hair was finally growing. So this year, she picked out her outfit - layers on layers per usual. We went out back and I sat back with my camera and photographed her being her, in her environment. I must say these are of my favorite pictures of her to date. Happy Birthday my sweet girl, here's to millions more! xoxo

Carver | St. Augustine Birth Photographer

I have wanted to get into birth photography since I first started my photography journey. But there are a lot of logistics that make it complicated, and in all fairness I was nervous I wasn't good enough. Lighting is usually terrible and you don't get to re-do the shot if you mess up. But I finally pulled the trigger and jumped into the world of Birth Photography. And it was nothing short of amazing.

The excitement and anticipation are like no other. And really the whole process is just so amazing. Never is a woman more strong and beautiful then when she is birthing her baby. And as someone who always is drawn to less posed more candid shots - this setting is like a dream. To be a fly on the wall and capture such a miracle is just such a blessing. There are too many thoughts and emotions to describe it - so I will let the pictures speak for themselves. 

I am looking for more births to photograph. I am offering five birth sessions at an insane discount as I get my barrings of the birth world - so spread the word! If you're interested or know someone who is, please have them fill out the form at the bottom of this page for more information!
