You know I love a good pregnancy announcement! This one was no different. We met at a local park in FishHwak Ranch early one morning to help take some photos to share their big news! Thankfully we were able to set up a morning session with all the rain we have been having almost every evening. Mornings are a good way to make sure to get your photo session in without rescheduling in late summer. If you are newly expecting, one of the weekday mini-sessions coming up in early fall would be a great way to incorporate a fun announcement into your family photos, too. Or even a short and sweet way to document your pregnancy if you are farther along, too!

This family is one of my favorites and after years of knowing them, I finally got them in front of my camera. What a big milestone as this guy gets ready to graduate!! I am always thrilled when senior pictures include a portion for family photos, too. As a Plant City senior photographer one of the most requested locations is Medard Park. It is always gorgeous and allowed so much room to bring his baby, er, car with! Having something meaningful at your senior pictures can often time relax seniors more. Especially guys who many not be as used to taking selfies and photos as some of the senior girls I photograph.

Meet N. Her smile and spirit match her beauty and brains! I adore her and her family. Her senior session was a two part session and I am actually recommending it for future seniors if you can do manage to set up two mini-sessions, or a full session with a plan for two locations in the logistics! Now, for two fun Tampa photo locations, the green house and park area near Fishhawk Ranch, check out these fun senior portraits with personality and such a variety!

I just adore when families get together and want to document this time together with a photo session. Celebrating this gorgeous mama of this family, we got together to celebrate her 70th birthday. I honestly don’t believe she is 70! Can I have her skin when I am 70? But I digress. I just had the most fun documenting this family at the gorgeous Medard Park in Plant City. The mossy trees, beautiful sunlight, gorgeous huge trees that look prehistoric and so unique, yes please!

“Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows. It's what the sunflowers do.” – Helen Keller. This sunshiney senior is about to graduate, but first we documented her Tampa senior pictures in Winthrop Town Center. The perfect spot for unique urban backdrops and flowers and greenery to give us a lot of variety in a small space. If you are looking for senior pictures in Tampa Bay next year, now is the time to start reaching out to plan for your senior’s portraits for the class of 2024.

This family always brings the style. This year was no different. Their holiday mini session near Fishhawk Ranch with the perfect fall color palette while not feeling “fall heavy,” was just right. Sometimes heavy sweaters for fall just don’t make sense in the fall in Florida!

This lovely family session celebrating their parents 40th wedding anniversary at a local park is just the inspiration you need for your own extended family photo session.

Tampa maternity photos at Medard Park, just east of Tampa, is one of my favorite settings for family photos in general. If you have young children, this park is up there for a great photo location because it has so much space to play and explore. Plus, it is just a gorgeous backdrop for expectant mamas.

Fun location for families in Tampa, come explore Julian B. Lane Park. A fun morning session with lots of city views of downtown Tampa from the riverfront park. Perfect for modern families or those of you who are more morning people than staying up late for sunset!

A couple session at sunset at Kiley gardens. Looking over the Tampa Riverwalk, and the University of Tampa, this stunning couple was full of love and covered in sunshine.
