I posted about how I really messed up at these Pensacola Beach Anniversary Photos on Instagram. No lie, I got probably 50 DM’s from friends, other photographers, and locals about it. But, I didn’t mess up quite as bad as everyone thought! Promise. Anniversary Photos I want to start by saying, photographing an anniversary of […]

I’ve stated before how much I love being in Navarre Beach as a family photographer. You get the variety of the soundside and the Gulf.

It’s not often I get down to Navarre Beach as a Photographer because I’m based in Gulf Breeze. But Navarre is where I grew up.

Finding creativity as a photographer might seem incredibly easy, right? Just photograph the subject in front of you. I used to think this until I actually became a photographer. I got bored really fast. The feeling was looming over me that I was doing the same poses, the same type of people, and the same […]

I hadn’t dabbled in destination wedding photography yet when Jeanne approached me about photographing her week in Maui. When I think back to my time in Maui, Hawaii my heart aches because I want to go back so badly. I’m not sure if I ever will. But, if I don’t I can truly say I […]

When people ask me if I’m a newborn photographer, I suggest taking a look into lifestyle newborn photography. This is what I love to do and I typically have to explain the difference between a lifestyle newborn session, and a newborn session. I love photographing newborns and seeing new mothers in their element, right at […]

As a Pensacola Beach Photographer I often get asked to do sunrise sessions. You might be wondering “why on earth would someone want to get up that early for a photo shoot?” I used to think that way too. But trust me, the reasons are infinite.  #1 Babies. If you have young children, they’re usually […]

One of the most popular spots for photos in Duh in Pensacola. Duh is an awesome backdrop because of the gorgeous products outdoors… In addition, I find it extremely admirable that they donate all of their photography fees to the Pensacola Humane Society and allow photographers to photograph there outside of business hours. With a […]

The Smith Family was looking for Panama City Beach Family Photographers. When they reached out to me about scheduling a family session they explained they had littles that go to bed very early (sunset in the summer time is close to 8:00 in the evening). I was elated when she told me sunrise was ideal […]

I continue to be inspired by Maui Family Photos and photographers I see on Instagram and Pinterest. To think I would have that opportunity on my own put a lot of pressure on this session, but hey! That’s how I work best. In case you haven’t seen my other posts, Jeanne (the most amazing bride) […]

As a Pensacola Beach Maternity Photographer, I have LOTS of conversations with clients about the sky, the weather, and how to make the most of your photo shoot. I don’t use Photoshop heavily. I love taking advantage of the true colors in the session and using natural light to my advantage. As long as there […]

If you’re wondering about a rehearsal dinner or wedding venue close to home, The Pointe in Gulf Breeze is everything you need and more. White walls, gorgeous aesthetic and oak trees with a golf course back drop, I mean.. what more can you ask for? I saw a meme on Facebook a few weeks back […]

Madison Dorsey has the world at her feet as a Navarre High School Senior. She might not know exactly what she wants to do with it yet, but in my opinion that’s how it should be. I mean, how can you possibly know when you’ve got beauty, brains, and the sweetest personality you can imagine?! […]

I was so excited to photograph this NOLA themed engagement session. Jeanne and Derrick are one of a kind. They’re the people you’ve never hung out with before but the conversation just flows easily. Jeanne and Derrick are just “chill” and easy to hang with. I met Jeanne when I photographed the GBHS Cheerleading Squad […]

When Matt and Jess told me they were having a Live Oak Plantation Wedding, I was thrilled. This venue has so much to offer and the greenery is just stunning. I can’t say enough about it. The weather forecast was showing a 91% chance of rain for Saturday, May 21st. This couple was so special […]

I met the owner of Taste of India, Rudy, at a first birthday party. When he approached me about needing new photos for his website and menu at Taste of India Pensacola, I was interested but wasn’t sure I’d be able to follow through. I’ve photographed food at weddings and little jobs here and there. […]

If you’re wanting to be included in your newborn’s photos, lifestyle family photos are perfect for you. There are a million reasons why I think lifestyle newborn photos are the best option for new families. But I may need an entire separate blog post for that. Being in your own home with all of your […]

I was not expecting a backyard farm session, but this is not my first time to photograph the Grundel Family. We had already done beach photos when they first moved here to Florida. It’s been amazing to see them grow and thrive as a family here in Florida. When they told me they wanted to […]

I don’t know about other Pensacola Beach Photographers, sometimes I still have to pinch myself when I think about the fact that I get to do this as my job. Seriously, I photographed Callie Danielle and Dani from Tails Up Pup for their branding collaboration line! In case you didn’t know, Callie Danielle is the […]

When you’re looking for a Gulf Breeze Senior Photographer, it’s important to check out the style of photos and Chloe did just that. She knew I loved dogs and I like to keep things as natural as possible. When Chloe told me she wanted to bring her two pups along for her session, I knew […]
