Welcome Baby H! Lakeland Family Photographer

One of my favorite things is to watch good friends as their families grow. These two parents are dear friends of ours. The dad, Anson, is practically brothers with my husband. They've been through thick and thin together. Tom (my husband) and I were so excited when Anson and Brooke found each other. And now they have sweet Baby H., who will most definitely be good friends with our daughter. These pictures are only a sampling of how much they adore their new addition. I can't wait to see their love continue to grow and Baby H. continues to melt all of our hearts.

The M Family - Just Like Home - Tampa Family Photographer

I'm not sure if it's just me, or if every family photographer feels this, but every now and then I fall in love with my families. Okay, so most of the time I fall in love with the families I photograph. I've had the chance to hang out some very special crews and capture the sweetest that earns them the title "family." I've been blessed to be able to enjoy my time with them and while I'm taking their photographs, they are capturing my heart. I know people, I know. I'm super mushy! I can't help it.

Speaking of families that I LOVE, let's take a look at the M family's recent session. Oh boy. These little ones melted my heart. They totally brought out the dork in me. I'm talking silly, ridiculous, making-a-fool-of-myself-in-Hyde-Park Tina. Did I bark like a dog to get a giggle? Maybe. Was I twirling the littlest one around in circles just for fun? It's possible. Was I renamed "Funky, Cold Miss Tina"? ABSOLUTELY! But more than anything, I had fun (and I think maybe they did too!)

So, check out their sneak peak...and get ready to fall in love :)

Baby E - Bundle of Love - Tampa Newborn Photographer

I love seeing new parents with their little bundles of love. How careful they are. How loving and sweet. It takes me back to those first moments with my little one. So sweet to watch. So wonderful to reminisce.

Meet Baby E. Those little hands. Little feet. Sweet face. This little guy was soooo much fun to meet. He did not want to sleep for his first photo session, but eventually he gave in to all of his mom's and my persistent efforts to make him comfy! I'm sure he slept for the rest of the day ... and honestly he deserved it. Being this cute is a LOT of work :)
