Lido Beach Engagement Session: Marife and Randall

Randall proposed to Marife at Lido Beach so having their engagement session at the same location makes the pictures even more meaningful.  Dad met them at the beach for an evening session and captured some beautiful images in the warm light.  The trees and fields of grass were as pretty of a setting as the beach itself!  The wedding is in July so dad will see Randall and Marife again soon!

Lido Beach Engagement Session: Dawn and Brandon

Dawn and Brandon had their engagement session with dad at Lido Beach.  They were a sweet couple and it was a gorgeous evening at the beach!  Dad found some beautiful light as the sun was going down through the trees and then setting through the clouds.  Thanks for a wonderful session Dawn and Brandon and dad is looking forward to seeing you for your big day in October!

In Just Two Days…

Dad’s second session the Sunday before last was with Allison, James, and their adorable little girl.  This family is very special to us.  Dad has photographed their wedding, maternity session, their daughter’s newborn pictures, baptism, family sessions and more, and now they are expecting their second baby.  It is a special gift to share in so many important moments in the lives of a growing family.  They have become friends of ours and we cannot be happier for them!  The day before the session was their daughter’s 3rd birthday.  Just two days after this session, they welcomed their beautiful baby boy into their family!!!  We are so excited to meet him for his newborn session very soon!  Congratulations to Allison, James, and the new big sister.  Many blessings to your amazing family!

Little did Allison know that as she looked at her belly and imagined what it would be like to meet her son, he would be there in her arms less than 48 hours later!

This is the tattoo James got of his daughter drawn from one of the pictures dad had taken of her!  How awesome is that!!

Mom LOVES this one!

Leslie and Jamie’s Engagement Session at Lido Beach

Leslie and Jamie came down to Florida for a busy trip of wedding planning meetings and visiting family.  While they were here, they met up with dad at Lido Beach for their engagement session.  They are so cute together.  They were laughing and being silly and having fun being an engaged couple looking forward to their big day.  They are only six months away from being newlyweds!  See you soon Leslie and Jamie!

Kristin and Chris’s Engagement Session

Wednesday evening dad met Kristin and Chris for their engagement session in Sarasota.  They started their session on the streets and then made their way to the beach for sunset.  Dad said they were a very sweet couple and looked at each other with such love in their eyes.  Their wedding is next March in Tampa and is going to be wonderful.  Here are some of the images from their session:

Can’t you just tell how in love they are from how they look at each other?!
