I am super duper thrilled when a client in a completely different state calls me for a portrait session… I am still in awe sometimes that people love my work so much that they DRIVE (and sometimes FLY) hours to see me. It truly surprises me and never in my wildest dreams would I believe that could happen to me !!  Jamie and Chris came over from Mississippi to get some family beach portraits done…. We started over at Fort Pickens, then on to the Beach to finish out the afternoon ;- ) Jamie… the girls are super precious and your family is amazing…. Can’t wait to see you again !  Jen

Jamie wanted a silhouette portrait… can’t say that I blame her
This one would be ginormous above my couch !!!

… So you may be wondering why baby Hannah is so so so happy and Morgan wants nothing to do with the camera…lol

Mom just wrote me on facebook and was thrilled at what I got because of Morgan “Protesting” …lol
Look… kids will be kids, they are happy… sad… and EVERYTHING in between !
Morgan was not the happiest camper but according to the pictures I just posted she was happy just enough…lol

We have years and years and years to capture images of our little ones, I try not to stress over one session.
There are many things we can do to get a fabulous image, despite what the little ones think or are doing…lol

Peggy’s FABULOUS family put together a ton of special birthday treats for her this year, and this photo session was one of them ;-) This family is the best… they are all so very close and I just totally LOVE THAT !!! Reminds me of my own family ! Some “BeachBum’s” referred this family to me… have I mentioned lately that you guys ROCK !!! Here are a few of my favorites… ENJOY ;=)

Libby: JEN YOU ROCK!!!! I'm already making plans for that black and white...I'm thinking HUGE above my couch...what do you think?

Jen - Barefoot: totally agree.... super gigantic above the couch ;-) So thrilled that you love them ..... but it helps that you guys NAILED the outfits !!!!!!

I wish everyone could meet Cindy and Ted… they are amazing !!!  They are so happy and so into each other, and I am so so so so so so so so happy to share your weding day with you ! They have been vacationing here in Perdido Key for many years now…. they have found the neatest townhouses right on the beach. It is so secluded where they stay…. usually empty… no crowds… can’t see anyone for MILES and MILES …. and ooh the shells…. tons and tons of shells wash ashore there … it really is like Paradise. Ted said when he gets home and shows people pictures of their vacation on the beach everyone asks, “Where are all the people?”  I promise my lips are sealed on your top secret location…. but I may have to use it myself from time to time !!!

OK… on to the pics….. Poor Cindy has been blog stalking about 8 times a day……. well Cindy, it was well worth the wait, your were gorgeous ;-)
