Hancock Family // Lifestyle Family Photography // Gainesville, FL

The Hancock Family is near and dear to my heart. They are some of the best people I know, truly. I am privileged to have photographed each part of this family on separate occasions and now finally have smushed them all together for a shoot! (Did you know that smush is not a word?! That's what my spell check is saying anyway. oh. well.) I love how they coordinated their outfits...well done folks. ;) They are just a good looking bunch of people anyway.

We had fun shooting out at the NFRMC Duck Pond. If you haven't had a chance to get out and walk the pond, you really should make plans to do so. It is such a lovely area right across from the mall and certainly a fave spot of mine, especially during the holidays. Anywho, enjoy the gorgeousness that is this family!

Steen Family in Flowers // Family Lifestyle Photography // Gainesville, FL

A lovely blonde. Two silly red-heads. A field of yellow and purple. Lots of color and laughs make for a really fine afternoon.

One thing I can definitely say about living in the Gainesville area is that there are so many beautiful little spots tucked away in it. One of my favorites is the 'Hampton flower field'. I just love this field and I wish it was closer to my house, you know, like in my backyard. If someone could get on that, it would be great. Thanks. ;)

Diania and Baby Evie // Gainesville Maternity and Newborn Photographer

I'm a bit behind on blogging so this is a combined post of Mommy (pre-baby) and then new baby.

Diania and I went out to a beautiful little wooded spot for her maternity shoot. I loved the colors she chose to wear! They really popped against all the green. :) We had this session not too far from the arrival of this little one who happens to be baby #4. By the way, did I mention this is my sister-in-law? Every single one of my nieces and nephews are the cutest things ever. This baby is no exception.

And now for Baby Evie:

Mother and Daughter // Gainesville Family Photographer

Wow, it's been way too long since my last post! It has been a crazy summer this year hasn't it? I hope you have been able to stay out of the heat, unless of course you like this scorchin' weather, which then i suggest seeing a doctor. ha ha! ;c) I am definitely a cool weather gal!

I had a great time around Lake Alice and a couple nearby places on campus at the University of Florida with these two lovely ladies. This was a session that finally worked out after dealing with tons of set backs. We even had to push through some weather issues the day of, but patience paid off! Mom and daughter are full of sass and spunk and just plain beautiful. I am so glad I was able to spend this time with them. :c)
