I’m so happy to be kicking off 2025 Senior Photos with Becca Amaya who is a rare and true gem inside and out. A glance as these photos will show you her beauty is unmatched, but in addition she is so much more than meets the eye. She serves as the Band Majorette for Gulf […]
It’s family photo season and the Fox Family is one of my favorites. This family was one of the first few to allow me to take their family photos and model for some of my holiday mini sessions. To have them come back as repeat clients is such an honor I don’t take lightly. Their […]
Abby won the Bestie Photoshoot in Pensacola Beach for my Instagram Giveaway a few months ago! After lots of coordinating we finally made the day happen and the beach was seriously glowing perfection. Flat as a lake, crystal clear water, and the shining sun was all a paid actor in this perfection. Not to mention, […]
I’m no stranger to Portofino Pensacola Beach as a photographer. There’s a reason people flock here year round for their wedding, vacation, and some family time. When it comes to hotels on Pensacola Beach, Portofino truly has it all. I don’t mind making my way there because there’s incredibly easy access to the beach and […]
When it comes to family photos, I always say the most stressful part is leading up to it- not the actual session! When picking your summer family photo color scheme, there are several things to keep in mind. For starters- I’m all about thinking outside of the box. If dressing in frilly, southern, all white […]
Next time, I’m going to bring this film into the bright sun and underexpose just slightly. Since I was only experimenting, I shot on some cloudy days. I don’t think this was the best scenario for me. Especially because I have a bright and colorful aesthetic.
This past weekend, I had the pleasure of photographing the Augustine family during their stay at the Hilton Pensacola Beach. They made a fantastic decision by opting for a mid-morning photoshoot, which turned out to be perfect for their one-year-old. While sunrise and sunset provide beautiful lighting, they can be tricky with young children who […]
Not all photoshoots are created equal. Some are lighter, more fun, and show a different side of the family.
My breakup with weddings wasn’t a falling out, it was more of a slow burn. It’s not that I hate weddings. I actually really enjoy the process of photographing in a candid way and seeing people on their happiest days. I still have a relationship with almost everyone of my couples and they mean a […]
There is nothing like taking sunrise senior pictures. It’s just you, me and the lens- nothing was different for Bria Aylstock. As her photographer, I found myself entangled in a scheduling woe, but what emerged from the chaos was an unforgettable dual session. I truly believe we captured the essence of Bria’s transition from high […]
Dogs are family, our pride and joy just like any other family member. It makes sense we want them in our family photos so we can remember them for a lifetime and capture their adorable faces. I’ve got some tips and tricks that can make your Dog Photoshoot a breeze! Safety First Make sure your […]
If you’re wanting a colorful celebration, look no further than Garden and Grain in Pensacola, Florida. Jim’s 80th birthday bash was a jubilant affair, filled with love, laughter, and vibrant colors that reflected the joy of the occasion. Hosted by his devoted daughters, with Catie taking the lead in organizing the festivities, the party was […]
Girlhood core is all the rage right now. Galentine’s Day is coming up and so many in their Taylor Swift era, I’m reminded of one of my favorite sessions with Jaci and Erica. Besties who decided to book a shoot before they parted ways after graduation- how sweet! In a world that rushes by in […]
Sessions like this one hit differently. Before I was a photographer, I was a 5th grade teacher, and Allison was one of my students. Even back then, her beauty radiated from the inside out. I will never get over being able to be present in a former student’s life,
As a Swiftie myself, I was thrilled that Jazmine wanted to incorporate Taylor Swift into her senior session. Nothing makes me (or my clients) happier than when I can incorporat
When Fete and Flora reached out to me about a wedding at Pier Suites on Pensacola Beach, I was excited to see what they had planned. Tuesday weddings aren’t typical for me. But it can be incredibly beneficial to get married on a week day. There’s less going on with traffic, locations are easier to […]
When their session kept getting rained out, we had to have a change of plans. We decided on a Kaiya Beach Engagement Session and to finish at Inlet Beach in 30A.
Talk about a dream beach proposal in Orange Beach, Alabama! When Kevin texted me out of the blue on a week day in early summer, I was hoping for it to tell me he was going to propose to his long time girlfriend, Courtney. That’s exactly what it said, but he also asked me to […]
I could go on and on about why Fort Pickens Family Photos is one of the most beautiful spots on Pensacola Beach to photograph. But this session in particular was really special. Claire explained to me she wanted some family photos while they were on vacation before baby number 3 arrived. We got them scheduled […]
When Taylor reached out to me to schedule for Spring I was so excited because Christy told me how amazing this family was! I wanted to make sure we got incredible, sunny weather and happy times for this go around.
I had never shot at Scenic Hills before, but I LOVE a good golf course wedding. Rolling hills of green to catch the sunset, a beautiful view, and most definitely a gorgeous interior, every time.
There is something special about capturing the beauty of a family. That is exactly what I did on a recent Pensacola Beach Staycation while this precious family stayed on Portofino Island Resort. This beautiful family, of parents and a 3-month-old baby, and their six-year-old son were truly a sight to behold. With the backdrop of […]
As a Pensacola Maternity Photographer, sometimes you have to play the game of weather man.. or woman! For Madison and Taylor this was certainly the case.
Seeing Mothers, children, and their families in my camera brings me an untapped level of joy I never knew I could experience. How can I be so proud of a woman I barely know?
When Jaci told me she wanted her senior session in a field of flowers, I was so giddy and excited..
When it comes to the sunset on Pensacola Beach, you can’t beat it for your family photoshoot..
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 […]
Ever since I started taking on more weddings, I’ve wanted to do a Greenhouse Engagement Photoshoot in Pensacola. I’d seen a few ideas on Instagram and I wanted to make this dream come true.
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 […]
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 […]
