(clearwater beach family photographer) Seriously, I am so lucky to have the most beautiful families as clients! I think one of my toughest jobs is narrowing down images for a blog post! There are SOOO many great ones of this family that I could post their whole gallery! These precious children were so much fun. The best sessions happen when a family is happy to be together and everyone (including dad :)) is able to enjoy the moment. A photo shoot should not only create great images but also create a wonderful lasting memory for the family. Many families enjoy ice cream or dinner afterwards making the whole evening a fun event instead of a “the dreaded photo session”. I love to keep everyone moving and busy with “posed” pictures turning into fun candid’s that turn into giggles and snuggles. This family was amazing to photograph and they truly made the evening a fun event! Thank you “J” family! Gallery soon to follow! (clearwater beach family photographer)

Since almost every family member I have lives up in the cold artic of Minnesota and all my cousins have new children and families I LOVE it when they come to visit and I can capture some family moments for them. I watch all their “babies” grow up via facebook and am always wishing I was able to help capture their memories through the camera! You might have seen a few more sneak peaks of this session if you are a TGP Fan on facebook but here are some new ones for “the blog” 🙂

Awful Weather, Awesome Family! (tampa, clearwater beach family photographer)

I think this session had every type of weather except for heat! It was SOOO cold and windy on the beach on this evening. I would normally have liked to reschedule but part of this family was from out of town so we made the best of it and trudged on! They were all TOTAL troopers for the whole session. Despite the cold wind they all had fun together as a family and made the session a blast! I think that is one of the best parts of my job, getting to meet amazing people and families. So, to my beach family, thank you so much for a fun session! I will get your gallery to you ASAP and thank you for being patient with your sneak peak as it took me a little longer than I anticipated!
