Christmas Mini Session at the Lake House in FishHawk
This Christmas mini session at the Lake House in FishHawk was a favorite — oak and palm trees framing a lakeside setting as the sun dropped low, casting warm, golden light over a family of five.

As a Tampa family photographer, I love finding moments that mean something more than a pretty photo. This session at the historic University of Tampa campus — Victorian architecture, manicured gardens, a light rain falling the whole time — turned out to be one of those.

A heartfelt South Tampa family photo session at Ballast Point Park. With their 9-month-old boy stealing the show, genuine moments were captured. The devoted grandmother's presence added depth, showcasing the special bond with her grandson. Beautiful surroundings, tender interactions, and candid shots made this session truly memorable.

Cypress Point Park Family Photos — Tampa, FL
Imagine capturing beautiful family portraits amidst the stunning backdrop of Cypress Point Park in Tampa — even with a packed beach around you. This particular Saturday afternoon was busy, and the challenge was finding a quiet stretch of sand that felt like it belonged only to this family of four. We found it, and had a great time doing it.

Family Mini Session at FishHawk Ranch, FL
Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing a family of four right in their own neighborhood at FishHawk Ranch — and the location couldn't have been better suited to a mini session. Golden hour light, serene ponds, Spanish moss, and one of those sunsets only Florida delivers.

Winthrop Plaza in Riverview is a hidden gem for family photography — small in size, big on backdrops. Brick walls, ivy-covered buildings, colorful murals: this one location gives you three or four completely different looks without moving the car.

Let me tell you about a recent family session at Gizella Kopsick Arboretum in St. Petersburg — a family of four with two young boys. What made this shoot special was having two completely different backdrops within walking distance of each other: the arboretum's tropical plants and winding paths, and Tampa Bay itself, just across the street.

Family Photos at Medard Park, Plant City — Golden Hour Session
As a Tampa-based photographer, I've captured a lot of family portraits — but this golden hour session with a family of four at Edward Medard Conservation Park in Plant City stood out. It was my first full family session in Florida since relocating from New Jersey, and the location made the introduction an easy one.
Fall Family Photo shoot
Last fall, I had the pleasure of photographing two brother's families at Ramapo Valley County Reservation in Mahwah, NJ. The shoot featured a soft and dusty-colored backdrop of the remaining leaves on the trees and the lake acting as a mirror to reflect nature's unsaturated colors. The cousins had a great bond, making for some fantastic moments captured. The families chose well-coordinated seasonal outfits, and I used both natural light and off-camera strobes with umbrellas to capture stunning portraits. Overall, this shoot remains one of my favorites.
