Sophie, Thomas, and Their Two Sons

Jason Angelini — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 01:08:42 +0000

Jason met Sophie and Thomas’s oldest son for his first birthday and photographed their family again when their son turned two. With kids, time goes by quickly and he is now three years old and a big brother! Little brother joined their family just a few days before Jason went to their house for a session. He took some newborn pictures of little brother and three year pictures of big brother. They ended the night with the boys joining Thomas on his Harley which I think is so cute! Congratulations on your new baby boy Sophie, Thomas, and big brother!

Shelly and Chris’s Two Boys

Shelly and Chris’s oldest son has changed so much since Jason last saw him a year ago. Last year he still looked like a baby but now he looked much older and bigger! He is two years old and now a big brother! Shelly and Chris have a second son who is 6 months old. Jason was happy to meet him and see the whole family again. It was a fun session and the boys are adorable!

A 9 Year Portrait Session with a Lego Maniac

Jason Angelini — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 01:33:50 +0000

His name may not be Zack, but he’s still a lego maniac! Before those of you who are too young to get the 80′s pop culture reference ask about it and make me feel old, here’s the you tube link for the commercial.

Andrea and Eric’s oldest just turned nine! He is growing up to be such a smart and creative kid, and a wonderful big brother too. Jason photographed him at 6 years, 7 years, and 8 years and they went to the park for his 9 year session. He brought a few of his favorite things with him and all of them were leg0 related!

We love all of Andrea and Eric’s kids, and Andrea and Eric aren’t too bad themselves . We are so happy to have them as friends and to see their kids grow as the years go on.

Merry Times this Christmas Season

Jason Angelini — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 06:54:04 +0000

Every year we have a Christmas party and invite all of our past and present clients as a thanks for allowing us to be part of your lives. Every year we have so much fun and this year was no exception! Thanks so much to everyone who joined us. We enjoyed a yummy holiday dinner from Catering by the Family. There were Christmas crafts and activities for the kids. Santa even came by and took pictures with everyone! Before he left he read ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas and lead a sing-a-long of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. We had a terrific time and felt the Christmas spirit as we celebrated the season with everyone. Merry Christmas!

The instructions on this tree say it can grow to be 40-80 feet tall! We are going to try to plant it and see what happens:

We had elves helping the kids with coloring pages, letters to Santa, and other Christmas crafts such as picture frames and ornaments:

Every year the hot chocolate station is a huge hit! We have whipped cream, marshmallows, and chocolate chips as toppings:

I didn’t do my Christmas baking yet but the desserts from the store were still yummy:

Balloon twisting and face painting!

Instead of reindeer and Christmas trees, the boys asked for lightsabers and swords:

Santa arrives! The kids looked so amazed and excited:

Darth Maul meets Luke Skywalker:

As my friend Wendy said, nothing says Christmas like Darth Maul!

A pretty elf with her elf hat:

Yummy (and messy!) food:

The Darth Mauls and their lightsabers:

Pictures with Santa are always a blast! Some kids are really happy to be with Santa, some are really NOT happy, and some could care less Here are some smiles to start off with:

Just hanging with Santa:

And then the classic Santa crying pictures! In this one, I love how she is checking him out and not liking what she sees:

Bet you can’t guess where her mom is standing:

1 out of 2 isn’t too bad!

Matching Santa hats:

More pictures with Santa:

Santa and Rudolph:

Santa isn’t just for kids!

Santa reading “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” to the kids:

When the story was done, this little girl walked up to Santa and asked him to read it to her again. So sweet!

Thanks again to everyone who joined us, and Merry Christmas!

Andrea and Eric have the most adorable kids! We love that we get to be there as their kids grow and capture those memories year after year. They are truly an amazing family! Jason has photographed their youngest for her newborn session, 6 month session, one year session, and two year session. She just turned three and she had her annual session with Jason. Aren’t her big, happy smiles so precious?! Happy Birthday to a terrific three year old!

University of Tampa Family Session: Risa, Philip, and Their Two Boys

Jason Angelini — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 07:31:33 +0000

Dad first met Risa and Philip when they welcomed their second son into their family and he photographed them again when little brother was just over half a year old. The boys are always so smiley and fun! They look bigger every time Jason sees them, but their happy expressions look just the same. Jason was excited to see them again now that little brother had turned one! Big brother looks so tall now; he grew fast since the last time Jason saw him. Risa and Philip are terrific people and they have a beautiful family. Jason can’t wait for the next time he gets to play with their awesome boys and capture some family memories for them!

Food Drive Mini Holiday Session Winners!

For our annual food drive we asked people to email bids of how many food items they would donate and the top bidders won a mini holiday session with the disc of images. We are so grateful to all of the winning couples and families who donated an incredible amount of food to make our food drive a huge success this year! We collected just over 1300 food items to be donated to our local food pantry!!

The mini holiday sessions were lots of fun. We had puppies, babies, kids, and families at a nearby park and at our home studio. The discs will be in the mail for all of the mini sessions this week! Thank you again!

Heather’s Two Girls

Jason Angelini — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 12:30:59 +0000

Jason has photographed Heather’s oldest daughter when she was just 9 months old and then again a year later. This year she is almost three and a big sister! Her baby sister is 7 months old and Jason enjoyed meeting her and seeing this wonderful family again. He was at the girls’ grandma’s house for their session and big sister had so much fun running around and playing outside just like last year. I think Heather’s new baby looks just like her! Jason can’t wait to see all of them and see how the girls have changed and grown by the end of next year!

Family Session with Shelby, Brian, and Their Kids

Jason Angelini — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 06:47:17 +0000

Shelby and Brian are truly genuine, kind people and so much fun! We feel blessed to have met their amazing family. Jason did a morning session with Shelby, Brian, and their two kids. When it ended Shelby sent Jason home with doughnuts for all of us, though I don’t know much about that since Jason and the kids got to them first . Thanks to Shelby and Brian (for the doughnuts and the session!) and we hope to see your family again soon!

Newborn Session: Raegan, Todd, Big Sister, and Little Brother!

Jason Angelini — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 01:04:05 +0000

When Jason last saw Raegan and Todd their little girl just turned two and they were expecting their son just a couple months later. He arrived at the end of September and Jason was happy to visit their wonderful family at their house for a newborn session! Their daughter was born just a week after our daughter and now their son is only a couple days younger than our new baby so we definitely have to plan play dates for our kids as the babies get bigger. Raegan and Todd are wonderful people and we’re so happy we’ve been able to watch their family grow these past couple years. Congratulations to them, and to the new big sister too!
