Nellie + Taras | Haus820 | Lakeland, FL

It’s no secret that I am STILL very much a Floridian at heart. If you don’t know this about me yet, I spent 16 years of my life in Sarasota, Florida before moving to Rhode Island and always jump at the opportunity to photograph a wedding in Florida. Not only do I love the relaxed […]

@margaritalicious is an artist wizard and made this beauty for me.

Now the only question is- how big is too big of a print because I’m about to go order a Schitts creek Rose family sized portrait of this guy. 😄

I love that Emma admitted to me that she was NOT sure about this pose. 🤭 …but she trusted my process anyway.

Turns out, it was one of her favorite photos from the shoot.

I’ll admit- not every pose I try works for everyone … and it might not work for you 🤷🏻‍♀️ … but also, it might. It might even end up being your favorite photo from the set.

My advice? Trust the process… run with it and just have fun!

@em.kay12 ❤️ thanks for trusting my process.

I get asked all the time if I do family sessions.

I get asked all the time if I do family sessions. 🤭

I don’t share them on here a whole lot but I really do!! And I enjoy them too… I just have less time in the summer months to devote to them but I’m brainstorming a couple fall/winter mini session dates soon!!

Would you be interested this year?

Swipe swipe swipe to see @margaritalicious doing her thing. I knew this wedding season was going to be a BUSY one with all of the postponements from 2020 so I asked Maggie if she’d join me and help this year.

I am SO glad she agreed …let me tell you. It has been SUCH a blast to work together & honestly just gives me so much peace of mind knowing that I have help that I can trust. My clients are in good hands with her.

Maggie. Thank you so much for all you do around here. It’s noticed & it’s so fun for me. I finally have a coworker 😅👏👏

One of my favorite things this wedding season has

One of my favorite things this wedding season has been starting off with all the beautiful details. 🌱

Should we do a first look or a first touch? YES!

Should we do a first look or a first touch?

YES!

Can we wait to see each other for the first time when she goes down the aisle?

OF COURSE!

Whatever you decide to do, here are some things I would consider when deciding to do a first look or not:

1) how much daylight do you have? ☀️A fall/winter ceremony later in the day means you get less daylight for those beautiful images that you normally would get during daylight. A fist look would allow for more time for photos before your ceremony!

2) What do YOU want? 💛 Don’t let anyone pressure you into a decision if you don’t want to… it’s okay to want to take the more traditional route and not do a first look. It really is your choice.

3) 🤷🏻‍♀️ Weigh the pro’s and con’s - if you aren’t doing a first look, know that most of your portraits will be done during cocktail hour which means that more than likely, you’ll miss most/all of it. If you want to be present at cocktail hour, then the first look might be a great option for you.

I don’t think there is a right or wrong choice- there’s just one that is right for YOU. If you have questions or need help making a decision - send me an email :) I’m always happy to help!

Behind every well thought out, stress-free wedding

Behind every well thought out, stress-free wedding or event - is a team of planners.

They are the ones who work their tails off so that you can just ENJOY.

This year I’ve particularly noticed how much these planners really do and how many hiccups they fix without my couples even knowing it 😅😆

I give planners the MVP gold star this year 🌟 I see you. 💛

Just a reminder- DM’s are not the best way to reach me 😅

If you’re wanting to inquire- you can fill out the contact form on my website it is MY FAVORITE place to talk with you all!

If you sent me a DM inquiry recently for a family session/wedding or event and you haven’t heard from me 😬🤭 you can send me an e-mail at:

Thank you thank you thank you! 💛

I got a request a few weeks ago to photograph this luncheon that was designed & planned by @twohosts at @gurneysnewport a few months ago- and I’m so glad I agreed to make a quick pit stop before a wedding in Newport that day- it was absolutely stunning. Bravo ladies! 👏👌

So many great ones from this set- having a hard time choosing which ones to share with you all 😅

Happy 60th Birthday to the best dad a girl could ask for.

So much of who I am and even the work I do here - is because of him.

💛 He’s hilarious, resilient and extremely hard working. I know I get my hustle from him and my business wouldn’t be where it is if it weren’t for my dad.

I love that over the years, our relationship has shifted from father/daughter to more of a friend. He’s always there when I need advice or help - and always seems to know more than Google 🤷🏻‍♀️

After moving our family across the globe to give us a better life, you worked hard to make it a fun and exciting one - always full of adventure and travel. (Even though I hated the part where we had to move to Florida as a kid, I now am grateful and treasure those moments too. 😁)

You always did what you thought was best for us and I am grateful for it.

Thank you for being my dad and my friend 💛

Happy birthday, Papa!

(Also- scroll to the last image to see the day that dad accidentally matched @christinka_r at the airport 😆 we had a good laugh)

Summer is here and I am here for alllll of the fun summer sessions. 3 steps to a super fun session at the beach:

Step 1: Rent a shiny red (antique) Mustang

Step 2: Hire me

@adeelson_ & @evelin.jayyy KILLED IT. ❤️

Planning a seaport session again soon for a family expecting another child and it makes me so excited. ☺️🔆

One of the first engagement sessions that I ever did in New England was at Boston’s seaport district. (Remember @allylb ?!)

This spot’s a little sentimental … 🥰

🔆 Happiness so real you can feel it.

David & Briana met me in Boston on a rainy day for their session. (no surprise there… it’s been the rainiest summer 🙄)

But we were hopeful and eventually the clouds CLEARED & we ended up having a super fun session.

Sometimes a little hope goes a long way 🙃

So glad we decided to go for it anyway 🔆

Been doing a lot of editing lately, which usually calls for watching shows too 😁

After 3 million years of watching… I finally finished Gilmore Girls and tbh suuuuuper disappointed by the last 4 episodes (the seasons: winter, spring, summer, fall). 😬🤷🏻‍♀️ meh. Not a fan.

I’d watch the full show again but skip out on the last 4 🤭 Did you feel the same way???

And on that note… what’s the next show that is a MUST WATCH?! Taking all the suggestions now :)

I say it often- but this year truly has been one of the most challenging and busiest seasons I’ve had yet— I definitely feel it (and so does my back and my feet tbh 😅🙃🙈)

but…

It has also been one of the most rewarding. 🥲 I love this job because my clients are the greatest.

Here’s a text I received last night from one of my brides, @_genevieveblanchard 💛
This is the stuff that keeps me going.

One of my favorite parts of the day is arriving for detail shots.

🔅 Bonus points if we’ve got some fresh flowers to work with too. 🔅

Kinda obsessed over these details from @_genevieveblanchard & Kevin’s wedding day.

Thanks @jsmithfloral for the extra blooms ❤️

How I love New England weddings 💛

Slowly (but surely) working my way through edits and I am LIVING for these galleries.

So many of my 2021 couples have been with me since 2019 and the friendships that we have built have made celebrating their weddings that much sweeter 💛

Hand in hand and ready for the next journey that life takes them.

Every season of life - when you look back on it- seems to fly by so fast!!

My biggest advice for my engaged couples? Document it. Do the engagement session. Take the time to get dressed up and document the season of life that you’re in RIGHT NOW. Sometimes we focus so much of our attention on what’s next (aka wedding) that we forget to just enjoy the now.

So is an engagement session REALLY necessary?? … I may be biased but I say yes 🙌

Do it. 💛
