Happy Birthday to this happy, handsome 2 year old! Even though the session last week was so, so hot, we got some great smiles out of him!

Reef {Marathon Children’s Photographer}
Mr. Man is graduating from Pre-K and heading to the big boy school next year. Mom had some fun ideas for photos that she plans to duplicate SEVERAL years from now when he’s a senior in high school so she wanted a quick session for him. Isn’t his shirt cute? These were taken at Tranquility Bay in Marathon where the weather cooperated 100%. I love when that happens! The weather, combined with the personality of this little pistol made this session a lot of fun. We actually took several more photos than we intended (even some family photos), but when you have Dad and Mom around too, what’s a photographer to do? Oops!

The Jasovic Family {Florida Keys Family Photographer}
I absolutely love getting to meet the different families that come into town and want to get family photos. This small family came from Illinois and were staying at a local campground with their twins. Originally they were going to bring their pup, so I brought my eldest son along in case I needed him to hold a leash. It turns out the pup didn’t make the photo session so my kiddo didn’t need to make the trip, but I’m glad he did. The little bond he formed with the twins was so cute. He had them cracking up! He even got to put them in their carseats and take selfies with them. When he heard they’d be coming back next year, he said, “that’s awesome!” I can’t wait to see how much they’ve grown in a year.

The Johnson Family {Marathon Family Photographer}
The Johnson family arrived from several different states for the holidays and were interested in a reunion family photo. With 3 kids under the age of 4 (2 under 2 years), I brought in one of my assistants to help. Originally, we were going to do the session at Sombrero Beach, but when we arrived there were so many people that we couldn’t find a spot. In all the years I’ve been doing this, THAT was a first for me. So, we opted to change venues and quickly adjusted locations. After we got a few posed group photos and some photos of the individual families, we let the kids run around on the beach a bit while I captured some candid shots.

1st Birthday Smash {Marathon Children’s Photographer}
I can’t believe I missed wishing this little girlie a Happy 1st Birthday. When she came to visit for her 6 month photos, I was amazed at how happy she was. And, even though Mom and Dad had to work for these 1st Birthday smiles, she was still a dream. It’ll be fun to watch her grow.

Holiday Sessions 2016 {Marathon Family Photographer}
This year, at the beginning of October, I started offering shorter family sessions for a reduced price. The sessions were about 20 minutes which proved very manageable for several of my younger friends (kids and husbands ;-)) with all of the other hustle and bustle around the holidays. I’ve done this for the past several years as a way for families to update their holiday photos for cards or gifts. We photographed more than 30 families in about 8 weeks this year. It was certainly a busy time, but we enjoyed it alot. Which is your favorite?

Best of Marathon 2016 – Thank You! {Marathon, FL Photographer}
I am honored to have been voted as Best Photographer for the 5th year in a row during this year’s Best of Marathon awards. During the past 11 years of photographing in Marathon, I have enjoyed capturing the very special moments of some very special families. From behind the camera I’ve witnessed the nerves of engagements, the exchange of vows, met and photographed squishy newborns, and enjoyed growing families. I appreciate all of you who took the time to vote for me. Thank you also to my amazing assistant (Shuga) who, in addition to being the best dog whisperer, tambourine player and sunglass holder, makes sure all the wheels of the business keep turning. Thank you to the Marathon Rotary Club and The Weekly Newspapers for hosting the event. Now, who’s ready for some Fall Photos at the Fall Harvest on October 9th? -
Holiday Session 2015 {Florida Keys Family Photographer}
Each year around the end of October, I start offering shorter family sessions for a reduced price. The sessions are about 20 minutes which is a little more manageable for everyone around the holidays. I do this to allow families to update their holiday photos for cards or gifts. This year, I started these mini sessions at the beginning of October in hopes of avoiding some of the November wind (and sometimes rain) that we get down here. I photographed more than 30 families in about 6 weeks. It was certainly a busy time, but I enjoyed it alot. I tried to get a picture from each session for the slideshow below. Which is your favorite?

Best of Marathon {Marathon Photographer}
I was honored to be selected as one of the 3 finalists for the “2015 Best of Marathon,” and so grateful to receive the “Best Photographer” award at last night’s presentation. During the past 10 years of photographing in the Keys, I have discovered how rewarding, fulfilling, and fun it is to capture those special moments of some very special families. From behind the camera I’ve witnessed the nerves of engagements, the exchange of vows, met and photographed newborns, and enjoyed growing families. I appreciate those of you who took the time to vote for me. Thank you, Marathon, for allowing me to capture your special times!
