The Foxwell Family

When everyone is in town for a visit, you do family pictures, rain or shine. The Foxwell family were troopers for their family shoot as we fought off the rain. You’re guaranteed laughter, entertainment, and lots of personality with this crew. I’ve watched their family grow and change over the years and it was a joy to get to photograph them.

The Bernard Family

With Bryce heading off to college this week, it’s good timing for me to finally post their family beach session from earlier this summer. I love this family! They are a football family through and through and I have so enjoyed watching their boys play ball over the years. Sports and Jesus have brought our two families together in so many ways. Hard to believe they’re all grown up now and making their own paths. I’m not sure what life will be like once my kids are done playing sports and there are no more practices or games to hustle to. I’m often told, these are the best days of our lives. I do believe that, but I’m pretty sure there are some good days ahead for Brad and Kathy as they find their new normal. Here’s to the empty nester life!

Jeff & Ruthie’s Engagement

This was a special engagement shoot, because Jeff and Ruthie incorporated all of their children into the day.  It’s clear how much their children mean to them and how much they want them engaged in the new family they are creating.  Congrats to you both on your engagement and best wishes for a beautiful 2-22-20 and lifetime of love and happiness!

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

Santa came to visit us at the beach back in November.  So many families came and got in their requests to the Big Guy early.  Hard to believe Christmas Eve is finally here and he’s on his way back tonight!  Thankful for all of my AC Photography Families and such  a great 2018.  I hope you all find time to spend with your family and friends, and remember the true meaning of Christmas that came through a baby boy in a manger.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!  I’ll see you again in 2019!!!!

 

Joy To The World

This time of year is my favorite.  It really is a time of joy and celebration, but it becomes so much more when you have a new little life to celebrate.  The Phillip’s family welcomed a new sweet boy to their family just in time for the holidays.  He could not be anymore precious.  At five days old, not sure how silent and peaceful the nights are right now, but it is surely a time of joy.  Congratulations Phillip’s family!!

Stewart Family

Crystal has been a long time friend of my husband’s family, but this was the first time I really got to spend time with her and her sweet family.  It was a chilly afternoon on the beach, but a little “Baby Shark, doo doo doo doo” brought out the smiles!  Whatever it takes!  Now, you’re welcome, because you’ll have that song stuck in your head the rest of the day like I did.  Merry Christmas Stewart Family!!!

Nailed It

Last year, when I knew we would be moving to a new home, I prayed for boys for my boys to have as close neighbors.  It only took a few days to find the Nail’s.  Since then, we’ve had lots of Nerf gun battles, light saber battles, swimming days, beach days, dog walking, bike riding, video game playing, and just hanging out times full of laughter and gross boy stuff.  I love a mom of boys and could not be more thankful for the friendship forged with our dear neighbors, the Nail’s.  It’s always nice to get to photograph people you enjoy so much.  So when it comes to striking it big with great neighbors, we literally “Nailed It”!!  Love you guys!!

 

The Russell’s

I enjoy getting to watch families grow throughout the years while taking their photos.  From littles to bigs, glasses to no glasses, and additions of new favorite puppies.  It’s amazing how busy life can get with 3 kids!  I hope you get to take time during the holidays to rest and relax together.  Merry Christmas!!
