Every mom will tell you. Babies don't keep. They grow way too fast. In many ways we love it, seeing the independence, their personalities, watching them learn. Then we miss other aspects. Cuddles, little giggles, when they didn't know the word, "no". Being a Family Photographer has definitely allowed me the opportunity to watch so many little ones grow. Of course, that is one of the most amazing parts of my job. This sweet girl has never ceased to be adorable at our sessions

After shutting everything down in April, golden summer nights were what I needed. It's true. I miss photography when I am not doing it. Not to say I never allow myself to get so busy I need a break, but a month was never my plan. Being able to capture Aspen's 4 Month session as part of his Watch Me Grow plan was just what I needed.

Being a Family Photographer in St Augustine and Jacksonville FL I often get to see families year after year. But it's always special when a family on vacation contacts me for beach family portraits. This wonderful family had a vacation week in St Augustine Beach, FL and we missed the rain and were able to capture some beautiful images

It's no secret I simply LOVE my Watch ME Grow clients. Also no secret, my love for the beach. So, when we are planning a First Birthday session for one of my amazing families, and they are up for the beach, I am one happy photographer. This beach location is one of my favorites and Brandi did amazing at coordinating what her family wore. All of it worked together beautifully to make a perfect sunset beach family photos near Jacksonville, FL. Happy Monday! Melody

It has been amazing lately with all the gorgeous beach sunrises I have gotten to photograph in Ponte Vedra Beach near Jacksonville, FL. I may not be a morning person, I love a good sunrise, and a good beach sunrise is even better. Add in an adorable baby girl and her family, you have the makings for a perfect start to my day. As a family photographer near Jacksonville FL I have been blessed to meet so many wonderful families. When I first met this little miss and all the s

It's BACK!!!! Maternity Monday is here! Sure, I made this day up, but it sure does make Monday better. Especially today as I share a GORGEOUS sunrise beach Maternity portrait session. I am NOT a morning person. I never have been. BUT, I love sunrises. A capturing beautiful mommas and wonderful families on the beach at sunrise always starts my day off right. This beautiful family has been with me since they came to my Beach Mini event last summer. Not everyone (including m
