Month: February, 2011
we had the privelege to photograph the “c” family for the gulfcoast family cover last month and loved them! so much fun and laughter, and you guys were so totally willing to go with the flow… thanks for a fun little afternoon jaunt!
(and a little plug for the adorable Candy Kitchen, who just opened this location in redington beach. must. go. have. ice. cream. {or candy!} )
hugs!! –brian and angela
patience, patience… it’s taken all i have not to finish up and share little man’s images with you all… we’ve been swamped with sessions and wedding season preparations, and finally i am able to get to posting some of them! (so watch for a blog flurry this week…) and without further ado, i introduce mister baylor kai.
brandon and renee, do you know how awesome it’s been to follow you guys from engagement to the honeymoon gift of this little man? you are already great parents – it’s evident!
thank you so much for the awesome privelege to capture your beautiful son. HUGE hugs from a-girl and me!

a few background details. jeff is a photographer (!). an awesome sports guy who amazes me. tabi is, well, she’s stunning. they’re funny and sweet and so good together… like “been married for years comfortable” good together. aaand, they’re adventurous. will you lie on rocks? sure! climb a high wall? of course! wade knee deep into the tampa bay when it’s, like, fifty degrees outside, in a cute little dress and jeans… not rolled up so it’ll look cooler? no problem!
tabi’s already started scouting locations for their amazing april wedding photography, and my heart races a little bit just thinking about it. gorgeous cathedral, streets of Ft. Lauderdale… admit it, your heart’s racing, too!
the “mr.” of the two of us is getting pretty independent with editing… i love the “painterly” look of this one.
sigh…
being crazy.
and just so we all know exactly how jeff felt about entering the water…
you guys are awesome. thank you so much for being up for anything, for a relaxed evening together, and most of all for choosing us – we’re over the moon! 
the other night i came down to start work and found this on my screen. this is what matters in life.
i’m not gonna lie… no matter how long we’ve been doing portraits, it’s a little bit intimidating doing them for our own family. especially when one of them is a published author, and we know our images may end up on his book cover. it’s also a little bit nervy for our family, i might add, to be put through the paces like our clients are… but kim and jay were troopers… and sarah and will were awesome in front of the lens!
a little sister-in-law brag moment… jay is the author of several books, and was recently awarded an honorary degree for his book The Whole Youth Worker. mommy readers might want to check out “Ferdinand Uses the Potty,” and he’s got another Ferdinand book in the works… i’ve been told i have an appearance in the form of a beaver, perhaps? heehee…
adorable family portrait for author’s profile? yes, please!
