Anastasia’s Downtown Lakeland Senior Session | High school senior photographer I first met Ani (AH-Nee, Anastasia, not an-ee)  while taking family portraits for her and her family.

Most of the time, while at a wedding I see or hear something that really triggers something exciting that I can’t wait to share with you all. Although there were several moments during Amy & Jeremy’s day that were special to me and “blog worthy”, something else stood out to me even more. As I […]

Ana and I got our plate of food as usual. I sat on the ground next to my wagon of equipment. Happy to be able sit for a moment and quickly eat after hours of being on my feet working the wedding. There was a little fire pit (not yet lit) with some benches on […]

When Steven found out that Mindy and I had set up family photos, he came to me with stars in his eyes as he told me he thought this was the perfect opportunity to propose to her. From that point on we planned how to go about it, we even took a secret trip to […]

I double dog dare you to get through this blog post without smiling! There’s no way you could view these photos without a smile on your face (unless, of course you’re a robot or maybe the tin man). Nick, as you’ll see in the very first photo, is quite the character and he lights up […]
