Alana + Dave | Worth Avenue Engagement
Worth Avenue Engagement Photos in Palm Beach, FL
On Sunday, February 12th, Andrew and I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with Alana and Dave capturing their Worth Avenue engagement photos. We enjoyed the breezy afternoon strolling the street getting to know them and chatting about their wedding! They will be tying the knot on April 21st, 2017 at the Addison in Boca Raton, Florida. Andrew and I are so excited to document their big day!
First, we started with some classic portraits under the dreamy archways of Worth Avenue.
Then it was time for some ring shots! The watch in the photo below was a sweet gift from Alana to Dave. After capturing a few photos of her engagement ring Alana told me that the second ring she was wearing was given to her by Dave's mother as an engagement gift! How sweet is that!? Then the classic photo under the Palm Beach Clock Tower!

Chloe's Palm Beach Senior Portraits
Palm Beach Senior Portraits
On Wednesday, January 11th, I had the pleasure of capturing Chloe's Palm Beach senior portraits. Joy and laughter filled this session. We strolled the street of Worth Avenue together capturing lifestyle photos along the way.
When Chloe and her mom, Kelly, first reached out to me I was quite flattered. Kelly told me that they had been following my work on Instagram for over a year and Chloe had dreamt of her Senior portrait session in Palm Beach with me! However, I felt even more flattered when she told me she lives in North Carolina and would be making the trip to Florida primarily for this! Needless to say, I was very excited to meet and work with them both.
Just as I thought, we instantly connected. Right away I felt like I had known them for years! I love how this passion of mine that I get to call my "job" allows me to meet new friends all over the country!
Chloe was such a pleasure to work with and her radiant smile filled every frame with so much joy. The session took place on colorful Palm Beach and Chloe's Lilly Pulitzer outfits fit the scene perfectly. This shoot was one of my favorite portrait shoots to date and you're about to see why!
Chloe and Kelly, thank you so much for choosing me to capture such an important season of life! It was a complete honor working with you both! I look forward to working with you again! I hope you enjoy your portraits!
Lilly Pulitzer's "You Gotta Regatta" is my favorite patterns and when I saw Chloe's dress, I knew the perfect spot!

Emily's Palm Beach Lifestyle Maternity Photos
Emily's Palm Beach Lifestyle Maternity Photos
Since the first day of preschool, Emily and I have been best friends. We were there for each other on those scary first days of school, throughout middle and high school mission trips, on each others wedding days and now as we set into a new seasons of life.
After Emily married the love of her life in July of 2015, she and her husband moved to Texas. Even though we don't live in the same city anymore, we still get to see each other two or three times a year and when we are together it's like nothing has changed. During her time in town for the holidays, we decided to capture a few maternity photos on Palm Beach Island!
Emily's maternity session took place on the dreamy seashore of Palm Beach Island. Her lifestyle maternity shoot was a simply perfect reflection of my best friend in her favorite place--Palm Beach.
This is such an exciting season and I feel so blessed to walk through these sweet moment with her. I cannot wait to welcome little Owen Hitchcock to this world in April 2017! Here are a few of my favorite photos from her session.

Kirsten + Alex | Breezy North Palm Beach Engagement
A Breezy North Palm Beach Engagement
On Saturday, November 12th, Andrew and I had the pleasure of capturing Kirsten and Alex's North Palm Beach engagement photos along with their adorable goldendoodle, Ziggy. Their session was so simple but absolutely stunning! Their pup Ziggy joined for many of their portaits and was unbelievely well behaved! He even stood still long enough for me to capture Kirsten's engagement ring on the tip of his nose!
Kirsten and Alex have been together for 5 years! The first two years were long distance and Alex did not have a car at the time so he used to take the Greyhound bus to see Kirsten every weekend! In October of 2013, they moved to Florida together and have been living in the Sunshine State ever since! On September 17th, Alex proposed at the top of the Jupiter Lighthouse! Kirsten was completely surprised but the surprises did stop there! Afterwards, they went to his parents' house to share the news and to Kirsten's surprise her mom and step dad were there all the way from Ohio!
Kirsten & Alex, thank you for allowing Andrew and I the pleasure of being a part of this memorable season! We can't wait to capture your wedding day in Febuary of 2018!
