  • Comfort in time of Happiness and Sorrow

    Our third series in our Twelve by Twelve Project is the topic “Comfort.”

    Documenting the lives of the families that I’m surrounded by is one of the most rewarding careers. I never imagined I would feel so great about giving this gift to others. From the moment, Mom and Dad call me to say they’re expecting and would like to book Maternity, Birth and Newborn photography sessions, to the moment they see their newborns face- it is some of the most magical, happy moments I am so honored to be a part of.

  • Wall Display Guide for Your Home

    You went through the trouble of picking out your outfit, coordinating the colors, and picking out the best Westchase photographer to capture your families personality now its time for you to pick out the photos that you’d like to print.

    Lets talk about how to choose the proper size of photo to purchase for your walls at home. Look at the wall space that you’d like to hang your photos on. Chances are its a pretty big space to fill. An 8 x 10 printed photo is not going to fill that space so we need to think bigger. An 8 x 10 doesn’t give enough attention to the photos that you paid for and had taken by a professional photographer. An 8 x 10 is for a small frame on your desk at work or on your bedside table, not the best for displaying your newborn’s images when he/she was 5 days new. So lets think bigger. I always tell my clients they should order one print or canvas that is at least 20 x 30 from their session.

    Below you’ll find three images of a Wall Display I did. Each display has the same three pictures but each display shows different sizing. I show these images to my clients to let them see how different the print sizing is and how beautiful larger sizing can be.

  • Fun Facts about Your Newborn Neighborhood Photographer

    I’ve always had an About Me Section on my website but recently was “challenged” to share some unique facts about me. As Tampa photographers, we are so use to talking to clients about what they love and how they feel. I’m a big talker so I don’t have a problem sharing my day to day things but really, I haven’t gotten into those fun facts about me that rarely come up in regular conversation…so here we go!

    1. My favorite Movie is Dirty Dancing. I use to watch Dirty Dancing on my VHS Tape (which was recorded from TV) so many times that the tape broke!

  • Tampa’s Where my Heart Is -Neighborhood Photographer

    Our second series in our Twelve by Twelve Project is the topic “Home is Where the Heart Is.”

    Chris and I have been looking at purchasing a new home either in the Tampa or Palm Harbor area so this topic was perfect for me this month. We truly want to make our first home a place of comfort, to make it our own. We have a few “must have’s” that we require. One, being a pool because I LOVE to relax and sun next to the water. I grew up with a pool and the last three years of not having even a community pool has been torture. I don’t always have the time to pack up and go to the beach so to be able to go in my backyard and relieve some stress for 30 minutes will more than suffice.Photo of loft on second floor
