Two Families Become One…

I got a call a few weeks back from a very good friend of mine saying that her Dad wanted to hire me to photograph their family, their NEW family!!!! I was so excited to her that my wonderful friend Katie’s Dad had proposed to his sweet Fiance, officially announcing to the world that they wanted to unite their two families. Pat and Patti decided to have a family vacation out at Amelia Island to celebrate their engagement as well as to give all the girls time to hang out and bond together for a week. I love that both Pat and Patti are bringing two beautiful ladies into their new family with them. I had so much fun photographing the D. family and all the “D.” girls. Now theres lots of sisters ,new and old, and lots and lots of creating memories together! D. Family! I cannot wait to watch all the love that you all bring to each other. I am so happy that you all are turing two families into one…

Here’s a little out take. I told the girls to head out into the water, that I wanted to get a shot of them with all the water around. Knowing full well that this would happen. I secretly just wanted to set up a little bonding moment, that I could capture. I wasn’t disappointed ;-)

If you have followed me for a minute I am sure you If you have followed me for a minute I am sure you would recognize this woman. When I photographed her Wedding years ago I had no idea how happy I would be to have @mrsmakeitrainka in my life!!!! She is an incredible Woman and Mom and a million other things. She has been such a wonderful friend to me and I am crazy thankful to know her. At our last content shoot (precovid and still with a chill in the air) we had a little fun with some video and I threw together a little something for her with some images I have taken over the years. My edit skills are lacking but it was so fun to create and show another side of her! Shout out to another client and dear friend @shopacutabove @brittneypatty for letting us use your perfect #jaxmural
I had so many caption for this photo of my beautif I had so many caption for this photo of my beautiful couple who married the day before our State sheltered in place. So, lets keep it real. I am one month out from my first post Covid “big” Wedding. I have photographed a few elopements since the world fell apart (in more ways then one..) I am anxious to get back to beautiful gowns, love, laughter, family. With all that has happened in this world in the last few months I realize these events will never be the same, but I see them as reasons to believe in the future, to believe in faith, hope and love.

I have been sheltering in place. I have been hiding from social media. It just became to much. If you know me you know I wear my heart in my sleeve, nothing is ever “just business” it is always personal. I hold peoples worries and fears on my own shoulders right along with mine. My heart was breaking, the industry was falling apart and we started fighting a war that should’ve been over 100’s of years ago. At first I was afraid of not working for months, then I became fearful and afraid for loved ones who were diagnosed with Covid, then I became worried because my beautiful boys mental health will forever be affected by this and I had to choose being a Mother over my business for a short time, then I fell apart when I saw what the world was doing to beautiful humans who deserve every opportunity in life no matter their skin color. I was afraid. Heartbroken. I placed my son in front of every report of protests to reinstate everything I have taught him his whole life. We talked about Americas ugly history. We talked about kindness, empathy, loving people for who they are. He just kept saying “Why?”. I finally said what do you mean “Why”???? He had tears in his eyes and said why would people hurt someone because of their skin color”. Exactly. Why? I will never have the right words. I just know that it is my BIGGEST job to teach this child. Black lives matter, even if he doesn’t see color, and I pray he will always keep his kindness and compassion and continue on to fight for peoples rights.
