Smith Point Beach in the Fall

I love the beach any time of the year.  

But - I have to admit, I enjoy it more when it's cooler out.  

It's so peaceful.

Fall Photo Shoot

We had beautiful weather for this years fall photo shoot at Southaven Park.

Baby Bump Shoot

I was so excited for my first pregnancy shoot. I'm looking forward to taking photos of the new addition to the Diaz family in a month.

Oh how time flies.

I can't believe that Halloween was swept out from under me.  Where did the time go?  We're well into fall and I've begun shooting for holiday photos already so I figured that I'd post a few Halloween shots before we put the Christmas tree up.

Toddler Photo Shoot

One of the easiest photo shoots for me is taking pictures of little kids in their element.  On location offers the best shots, catching children at play and capturing real moments, not poses and fake smiles.  This little boy had a blast on the playground and I enjoyed documenting the day for his family.

Bikini Photo Shoot

I recently shot a beach and bikini shoot at Smith Point with an amazingly talented model.  It was a beautiful summer evening (shot around 5pm) which to me, is the best time to shoot this time of year.  We used a reflector which helped tremendously in controlling the light.
