Personal Space -Jacksonville Family Photographer

Hi all! I just wanted to let you all know that I have started a new blog for my personal pictures, parties and trips so I am not clogging up this blog with those images. This blog will remain in place for my clients sneak peeks :)

Please check it out if you are interested and follow along. I'd love to get to know you guys on a more personal level and I figured that would be the best way to do that. Hope to hear from you over there!

Pumpkin County Fair-Jacksonville Family Photographer

This weekend we celebrated my sweet Bella's 9th birthday with a backyard bash with some country flair. The theme was Pumpkin County Fair and we tried to make it a little feminine by sticking with pinks, oranges & black. All of the decorations were a labor of love by my very talented mother and myself...and my wonderful mother-in-law helped out with the baking. My son and a friend of the family were our "carnies" and I think they were the two cuties carnies I have ever seen. They did a great job helping the younger kids with all of the games. I will put links to all of the other vendors at the end of the post. Thank you to all who came to celebrate, I hope you had as much fun as we did!

Zoe turns 2-Jacksonville Family Photographer

My niece Zoe turned TWO yesterday!!! Since this girl was having the most elaborate parties even while she was in the womb (see exhibit A and exhibit B) she of course had to stay with tradition.
Her Mom threw the cutest Matryoshka Doll party for her and a few of her girlfriends.
My Mom and I pitched in to help with the decorations and the amazing cake/cupcakes was made by Maria of Love & Sugar Kisses Bakery.
My favorite thing about this party was how age-appropriate it was. Each activity was right in line with what all two year olds like to do...and they all had a blast doing it.
The photo booth doll was everyone's favorite and it also provided a cute take home favor thanks to the quick printing of an instax camera!
The bar is set pretty high for Miss Zoe but she is worth all of the effort!
