Three Generations! Palm Beach Family Photographer

November 30, 2009

I met up with the “S” family for an extended family shoot this weekend. We got quite a variety of shots, and here are the few I have managed to edit so far. R + P, a huge congratulations to you on your anniversary! It was truly a pleasure meeting you, your children, their spouses, and your lovely grandchildren. I have many more yet to edit, but enjoy your sneak peek!

This next one is one of my favorites….maybe it’s the soft lighting or maybe it’s their connection. shaw-162

Just look at the lashes on these two!! Love those sparkly brown eyes! shaw-136

Baby Shay is One! Palm Beach Child and Baby Photographer

August 25, 2009

This gorgeous little girl is getting ready to celebrate her first birthday and I was thrilled to do her one year portraits (we did them a little early so that the images can be displayed at her party). I just love her big brown eyes (look how they sparkle) and that gorgeous smile! She is such a doll and makes me totally want a little girl of my own. Anyhow, we did some family shots, some individual shots, some shots in her pale pink birthday dress, and finally enjoyed watching her try cake for the very first time. Like most babies trying cake for the first time, she was not sure that she liked the stikiness of it all, but was a great sport and smiled away like a champ! Mom had a neat little trick to coax that beautiful smile out….she sang U2’s “Beautiful Day” but changed the words to “beautiful girl” and it worked every time! It’s neat how parents often know the special tricks that work for their little one!

Sharon and Jose, thank you for welcoming me into your beautiful home and for letting me capture this special time in Shay’s life! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek! I will get the rest of your gallery to you soon. Oh, and Miss Shay, happy early birthday to you, baby girl!!

She may only be able to stand while leaning, but watch out, that won't last much longer! :)

Colorful Maternity! Palm Beach Maternity Photographer

July 25, 2009

I am so excited for this lovely couple as they are expecting their first little one, a baby boy! This past New Year’s Eve that they made a special New Year’s wish, to have a baby… I could not be happier to see that wish coming true so soon. Since Adrienne and Ryan live about 12 houses down from me, it has been extra fun to watch this bump grow, see the nursery progress, and, more than anything, to hear the excitement surrounding his upcoming arrival. Oh, and check out their little fur-baby, Penny! She loved the camera more than anyone! We braved the weather and the bugs and came away with some fresh and colorful maternity portraits that we took in a nearby field! I cannot wait to see these shots on the wall that is set aside for them in Adrienne and Ryan’s home! So exciting!
