Amara is the cousin of baby Emma (here she is at 8 days old), and the cuteness definitely runs in the family. Both girls are adorable.

We did Amara’s belated one-year session at the family’s beautiful home on the water – so many pretty and inspiring spots to shoot! And such a sweet little one…

Cat (of Cat Pennenga Photography – check out her beautiful work!) asked me to photograph her family on their gorgeous wooden boat before they sell it:

…And we did a little lovebirds’ shoot of the happy couple (and their pup, Rufus). Cute tidbit – Cat and Greg left their wedding on this boat. 🙂

Misty and Dusty were married Friday evening on Lido, and although the ceremony had to be indoors due to the crazy, hurricane-like weather, we got to spend some time outside and on the beach yesterday morning for a sunrise “trash-the-dress” shoot all around Siesta. The newlyweds are from Illinois, but Misty spent many vacations in Sarasota growing up and, since meeting Dusty, has made it a special place for him, too.

Misty is no doubt absolutely stunning and thus a ridiculously gorgeous bride, but she is also so much fun – and she and Dusty were amazing sports for yesterday’s shoot. Not sure I’ve met many brides who would dive into the ocean (and then a pool) in their wedding dresses – and let me photograph them doing it! Dusty jumped right in with her – and made her laugh all the while, which seems like a regular occurrence in their relationship (him making her laugh, not the diving into water in wedding attire).

Congratulations, Misty and Dusty!

Peggy and Tom are about to celebrate their 50th anniversary – WOW. 50 years!! Their four sons and their families gathered from all over the country to celebrate, and one of their sons, Jim, and his wife Julie of SunCoast Organics, the amazing home delivery service for fresh, organic produce (and milk, eggs, nuts, etc.), asked me to help them commemorate the occasion with photos. They were an easy bunch, because they clearly have so much fun together – it’s infectious and a joy to photograph!

How sweet are these two?

Sophia just turned 5 (happy belated birthday!), so we celebrated with a shoot to capture her gorgeousness and how grown up she is!

Of course, she had to do some twirling to show off her pretty dress!

Our good friends Chris and Sarah are officially married after an awesome wedding weekend in Annapolis, MD. Almost all of the guests came in from out of town (or out of the country!), so it was full-on vacation mode for everyone. And since people had the days leading up to the wedding to hang out and get to know each other, there was a relaxed, loving, happy vibe on wedding day – and everyone was ready to party (as is evidenced by the photos)! The wedding was held at Sarah’s grandmother’s beautiful estate on the water, they had a friend officiate (and photograph – that’s me!), Sarah’s aunt and uncle serenaded the couple, and the custom mix Chris and Sarah created for the dance party had everyone on their feet until the very last minute. All in all, a great, intimate party for two people who couldn’t be more perfectly matched.

Here are some highlights from the day…
