Elijah {6 months} I Fort Myers Child Photographer I Fort Myers, FL

Excited to share our latest lifestyle session of the Butcher family in May. Jaime and her husband, Matt, welcomed me into their home to capture portraits of their six month old son Elijah. I immediately hit it off with Jaime as soon as I spotted her in polka dots (my favorite pattern)!! Loved her style and ideas, turns out she is an interior designer! Here's a peek at Elijah- enjoy!

Meet Emma I One Month Photos I Nashville, TN

Pamper yourself, Emma! Your aunt Molly is visiting and there are about to be loads and loads of photo opportunities!

Visiting at your one month mark made for a few challenging attempts to capture the "newborn" images your mom and grandma were lusting after. Once we got into the groove and adjusted our expectations (newborns are much easier to capture sleeping) we did just fine.  You are AMAZING and I am elated I got to spend a week with you at the beginning of your life. 

I always knew you’d be a great mom someday, Hannah. Celebrating the incredible mom you are to Emma and the wonderful aunt you are to Lillian this Mother's Day. 

"All you need is Love"... "You are my Sunshine"... "Emma" and "Made in Nashville, TN".  Such a beautiful space for Emma Louise Lovejoy to grow. Love how all the details came together in Emma's nursery.

We can't get too far into this blog post without a photo for Jake... Enter the soccer ball and blanket made by Laura, Jake's mom.

What did the fox say? She probably could not stop talking about the super cute hat, tale, and booties you are wearing in the photos below made by our mom, Carolyn. Oh my goodness you are ADORABLE!!!!

Love, love, love the photo below. Emma reminds me of Hannah as a baby on the bed.


One more hat made by my mom for Emma- pretty in pink! I can't wait to see you again, Emma! And Lillian is counting down the days to meet you! 

Welcome Brody I Southwest Florida Family Photographer I Fort Myers, FL

I have some pretty strong roots with the Black girls. Katie and I met in 8th grade after I moved to Fort Myers. I can recall our sleepovers and talking about boys and kissing; twenty years later, we are now talking about bottles and babies! Katie and Jake are beautiful together. I walked out of their bungalow after our session feeling giddy that my friend from so long ago has truely married the love of her life and now they have an amazing baby. Brody is so handsome and precious. I can't wait to share these images with the Bristow family and friends!!! Enjoy...



 In love with this blanket that Jake's mom made!!

Addison is so proud of her little cousin... 


This boy is sooooooo handsome!! 

And no newborn session would be complete without a little posing inspiration from Pinterest... Sharing the PG version (LOL). 

 

Hello Baby I Fort Myers Newborn Photographer I Fort Myers, FL

Meet baby Madison...

Amy and Scott welcomed this little bundle of joy into their world on August 3th, 2013. Baby M could be a model baby for her mom's shopping habit on Etsy! Amy selected many cute outfits for our portrait session including a mermaid tail and top, a butterfly ensemble as well as a peach ruffle romper for Madison. My favorite thing about lifestyle newborn photography is capturing the wonder and amazement of new parents. Memories of this time frame often become fuzzy for new parents and that is precisely why I feel these types of shoots are so important. Here are some of my favorite images from our time together...
