Family at Gemini {Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 01 Apr 2015 11:59:00 +0000

This past weekend I was introduced to the very

sweet Harmon family, and the most exciting

newest member…. Vanessa ! She was a doll, and although it

was a touch chilly and windy, she still came through with

some really cute smiles. (well… grins!) I wish you could see

her very cool and hand painted converse she was wearing.

Her mommy, Candace paints them, and you REALLY should

check them out …. they are incredible !

Thanks to Candace and family for allowing me

to take your photos !

Jackson's Six month at Bridle Oaks ! {Bridle Oaks Barn}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 29 Mar 2015 01:54:00 +0000

Today I got to do a shoot at Bridle Oaks!

This little handsome fella is Jackson and he was

too cute all decked out in all his hats. This was his

six month shoot, so I decided to try out Bridle Oaks barn

for a shoot. It was a gorgeous day with the light breeze and

warm sun coming through all the trees. I just love it out

there, and I also love seeing great friends and clients out

there with such great models!

Thanks again to Josh and Mandy for coming out today!

(and Jackson too!)

Pretty mama to be! {shawna everett photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 24 Mar 2015 00:15:00 +0000

This is itsy bitsy Linh and her husband ! They are expecting

a baby boy in July and I was really excited to

meet them at Gemini Springs for their pregnancy shoot

this past weekend. It was a little hot out, but once we got into

the Orlando Magic clothing, things got more relaxed

and fun. I think she's just about the cutest pregnant

mama ever, don't you? !

Baby Isaac { Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 15 Mar 2015 15:45:00 +0000

Yay ! I got to meet baby Isaac, who I saw in his mommy's

belly just two weeks ago. So surreal, it is. He is such a little

cutie, and big brother Eli was a huge help and very sweet

with his new lil' brother. I'm very happy for the Baldillo

family, and I'm so glad they asked me to capture their

newborn photos. It was bittersweet because this is the

last shoot I'll be doing in my Springview home.

ah.

Meet a future Olympian! {Debary photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 06 Mar 2015 21:40:00 +0000

So this is Alexa… and I'd like you to know there's a very

good chance you are looking at a future gymnastics star!

I say that, not only because she's walking at 9 months old…

but because she has her mommy's feet and that means she'll

be a lot like her mommy. Kim was a friend of mine in our

tween/teen years and we went to gymnastics camp together for

many summers. (we have SOME stories!!) She was much better

than I, and actually went to college on a gymnastics scholarship.

This is her first daughter, Alexa, and she is a beauty!! I loved

meeting her and absolutely fell in love with her smile and

sweet spirit. Keep your eye on this one!

Thanks for coming to Gemini guys!!!

Valentines day cousins! {shawna everett photography} {Gemini Springs}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 16 Feb 2015 17:33:00 +0000

It was a beautiful day at Gemini Springs on Saturday, Valentines day!

These are four of the cutest valentines ever.

Check out the girls striped outfits from Etsy. I love it when clients

put things together with thought ! It really does make such a

difference in family shoots. These kids did really wonderful.

They were great listeners and really did help to make the shoot

easy, fun and a great success. I can't wait to start editing the rest!

Thanks to Shannon and Brooke for asking me to do them !

Eli will be a big brother… {shawna everett photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 16 Feb 2015 17:25:00 +0000

Elijah is so lucky! He will be a big brother very soon.

I can tell he will be an excellent help to mommy and he

will be a very good big brother to his new lil' brother!

Elijah did great during our shoot. He had a lot of fun

painting mommy's belly and running around in the park.

He is a great little guy and one of the sweetest I know.

Now, lets bring on one more adorable Baldillo baby...

I can't wait to meet Kelley and Eric's next little guy!

Eli is growing up! { Shawna Everett Photography)

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 19 Jan 2015 01:33:00 +0000

It was fantastic to see little Eli again! What an absolute

sweetheart. he has the kind of eyes that just dance when he

smiles. I think you can see it here. ( I hope!) The best news is, he

will soon share those smiles with a younger brother! How exciting

for his family. For three years old, (and "just") he did such

an amazing job at this shoot. You would've thought he was five or six

for how well he listened. I really enjoyed seeing Eli and mom, Kelley,

again, and I can't wait to meet Lil' Brother !

Oh, and he is a super Kung Fu fighter, so he had to show us

some of his moves!

Baby Emmett {Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 13 Dec 2014 15:35:00 +0000

I was excited to meet new baby Emmett yesterday.

He was a referral from a friend from high school.

He did fabulous (especially towards the end) They all

do that to me! We always get the best shots in the

last ten minutes. A big thank you to Stacey and Steven

for coming out to meet me and allowing me to photograph

your precious son!

Baby Lily {Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 13 Dec 2014 15:30:00 +0000

Sweet baby Lily came to see me from

far way yesterday! A big thanks to Jonathan and Kelly

for bringing her over. What a beautiful baby she is!

I hope I get to see her at 6 months. She gave us a little

run for our money, but overall, she was just precious!

Kennedy's back! {Downtown Sanford Holiday shoot}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 30 Nov 2014 16:58:00 +0000

Kennedy has just returned from a sojourn in the Great

Pacific Northwest! I was so happy to see her again.

Kennedy is one of the most expressionistic children

I've ever been around. I almost titled this post,

"The many faces of Kennedy"

She's really busy and super sweet. I know she keeps

mommy and daddy on their toes all the time. I loved

seeing the Schaber family again. Thank you so

much for coming out for a Holiday shoot!

The Hunter Family { Debary family photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 27 Nov 2014 16:21:00 +0000

Thank goodness the weather finally gave

us a break for one day and we had a chance to

visit Gemini Springs with this adorable family.

I love seeing the Hunter's this time of year, and

it's always a guaranteed easy and fun shoot.

Having enthusiatic clients is an awesome thing!

I love seeing you guys, and I'm so excited to edit the

rest of these. Thanks so much for coming for a fall shoot !

Brouhard Family {Deland Family photos}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 27 Nov 2014 03:27:00 +0000

Every time I see a family that I only see once a year,

it is so exciting to visit and to see how big and

mature their kids are getting. Nicole's family is no exception.

Gavin is so, so handsome and he has to be just the sweetest

little boy I've ever met. It was such an amazing evening out

at my secret location in Deland. The sun was perfect. It was not windy,

and the temperature, although a bit warm… was nice too. I was so

happy to capture such a beautiful family. Shoots like these

are always so enjoyable. Thank you Jerome and Nicole (and Gavin!)

for coming to see me again!

Adelaide has a new brother! {Shawna Everett Photography)

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 27 Oct 2014 12:34:00 +0000

I'm thrilled to introduce another gorgeous baby

from the Raymor family. What a beautiful little

boy they have had. Beckett made his way into the

world last week at Heart to Heart birth center.

Mommy looks like she never had a baby a week ago,

and little sister is already being a big helper!

The two German shepherds approved as well, as you

can see from the photo below. Congratulations to

Christy and Luke on their perfect new addition!

Thank you for inviting me once again to share in

this joy!

The Clisby Family and me ! {New Symrna Beach}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 14 Oct 2014 00:48:00 +0000

Yay for new friends and new experiences!

I was so happy to photograph my new friend and her

sweet family. We had a great shoot and went out for margaritas

afterwards. What's better than that? Their son did fantastic

and gave us some fabulous smiles. The weather was perfect

and we had a great time. Thank you to Kristine and Jason

for allowing me to take your Holiday Photos! Next, we'll

design a spectacular card for you!

New friends at the beach! { Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 14 Oct 2014 00:38:00 +0000

I'm lucky to know a lot all of my clients personally before

we shoot, and also some are good friends. Others, become good

friends as we shoot year after year. I'm so lucky! Two shoots

at the beach this past weekend fit that description! I'm happy

to introduce this gorgeous family to my special spot

at New Symrna, and also to all of you. Everyone did

great including Mother Nature giving us some beautiful

weather and some gorgeous skies. (ok. I might have enhanced that

last part just a bit!) Thank you to Gernelle and Dan and all

the kids for meeting me at the beach for your Holiday Shoot.

Sweetest Adelaide {big sister!}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 10 Oct 2014 13:06:00 +0000

I was so happy to catch up with this family!

Absolutely precious, this Adelaide turned out to be...

She will be a big sister very soon. We had

a great shoot at the park despite cloudy skies.

I can't wait to meet little brother, who's making his debut

shortly at the birth center in Sanford. Thank you to

the beautiful Christy and Luke for sharing your belly moments

with me!

Fun at Gemini { Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 07 Oct 2014 18:50:00 +0000

Once a year, I get to catch up with all my lovely

families that I have the honor of shooting. This year is no

different, and I'm jam-packed until December with

families. The Kelton family is a great way to start.

With these two beauties… it's a sweet start

to a great season. I take that back…. I mean THREE

beauties! Thank you Erin and Mike for meeting me

at the park this year!

Drama at the Beach {Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 05 Oct 2014 02:15:00 +0000

Drama at the beach… with the weather that is. Oh my goodness...

We finished this shoot by the skin of out teeth! It was raining off

and on, and poor Kelly was changing outfits in the car while I

was trying to protect my camera. But, the good news is we finished,

and with some very cool photos (I think). Sometimes the cloudy and

stormy skies at the beach are amazing! I did enhance some

of these skies. (but that's ok, right?) What a pretty pregnant momma-to be…

and daddy was very helpful too. I'm so excited to meet this little

one. Thank you for choosing me to share this very special

time in your lives, Kelly and Jonathan !

I had the pleasure of photographing a new family

this weekend at Gemini Springs. Meet the Monette boys,

all smiles and curls! It was rather muggy and hot out

there this weekend, after so much rain. We made it work and

the boys did great. I love welcoming more sweet

people into the Shawna Everett Photography family.

Thank you so much for allowing me to photograph

your family, Tara and Dan! Great to meet you all.

Sweetest Weslee Rose {Debary photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 12:55:00 +0000

Oh my goodness… this is why 6-7 month old babies are

THE BEST! They are happy, smiley and full of

joy. Every last one of them. I don't think I can even

think of an exception. {{Wait. Maybe my son. }}

Ok, I'll save that story for another blog post. Weslee

came to see me for her 6 month shoot and we had so

much fun in bubbles and hats. I loved seeing her

and her pretty momma too. Thank you

Nikki, for making the drive and choosing me

for 6 month photos... Always love seeing all of you!!

The Tribe of Five! {Debary family photographer}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 12:43:00 +0000

So happy I got to meet up with the L family boys again.

It's been a couple of years, but those piercing blue eyes

came swiftly back to my memory when I visited with them

again over the weekend at Gemini Springs.

What a handsome tribe of five this lucky momma

has, and they are all amazingly well-behaved too.

How did she do that? If she gives lessons, I may

take her up on that opportunity. Thank you Lisa

for shooting with me this year. It was great to

see you all again!

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 11 Aug 2014 01:57:00 +0000

I had the pleasure of meeting Amelia and

Mikey at the park again this weekend !

Mikey was not in love with my camera, but

we found something he did love! Any ball

that was thrown in his direction, he went

crazy for! Amelia was her perfect lovely self

and I always enjoy catching up with

this sweet spirit. Thank you to Susan

for again making the trip to see me!

And baby makes four… { shawna everett photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 06 Aug 2014 01:24:00 +0000

Again, Mandy and her sweet, sweet family came to

Gemini for a pregnancy shoot with the kids.

We found out some great news…. that she will

be having "bookend boys!" YAY!! So happy for

this family. Can't wait to meet Mr. J when he arrives.

The kids, per usual… did awesome. We got some of

the cutest mommy/child portraits. Good family shots too.

I'll never tire of these blondies and the strawberry blond

in the middle, either!!!

Cute curls at the park. {Shawna Everett Photography}

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sun, 03 Aug 2014 15:50:00 +0000

I made a new friend today and she is so sweet!

She's really cute and has a head full of brown curls.

Her name is Keira and I fully enjoyed my time

with her and her mom and dad out at Gemini yesterday.

I learned she doesn't like hats too much, but she does like

Teddy bears and Minnie Mouse.

The weather held out for us and we had a good shoot

in the evening. Still hot and muggy, but Keira did

great overall. Thanks so much for coming so far, guys!

I enjoyed meeting you and really hope we can make

it a yearly event!
