Green Cove Springs, FL.  A Gorgeous spot for a Photo Shoot

I wrote a post a few weeks ago (or maybe even a couple months ago) about a session at Spring Park in Green Cove Springs.  That session took place early in the morning when the sun was rising over the water, it was really a beautiful session.  This family wanted their photos at the same park, but we got to do a sunset session!  I really fell in love with Spring Park in Green Cove Springs, FL when we did the sunrise session, but I fell in love all over again with this sunset session. 

The Golden Hour Light

The golden hour is my favorite time to do a photo shoot.  The light was so golden and gorgeous and it just draped through the trees with the Spanish moss hanging.  I love everything this park has to offer.  The fields, the water, the gazebo, the Spanish moss draping from the trees, it really speaks to a photographers heart with all the variety!  Just down the road there are some antique buildings, a theater, church, and houses too.  It really is a great park for a photo shoot!

Family Sessions with Young Kids

This session there was a lot of running and game playing again.  They had a 4 year old and a 1 year old, so games are par for course.  I'm thinking their kids slept well that night!  Check out some photos from their session and tell me what you think about this location! Would you want your family photos here?

Downtown Jacksonville Photo shoot

I love this family! I have known them for going on ten years now, when it was just Erin and Matt and no kids.  I met them through a mutual friend many years ago.  When she asked me to do their family photos I was ecstatic.  Her kids are the cutest and I knew they would be up for some fun.  She mentioned doing an urban shoot and mixing it up a little and I jumped on the chance.  A lot of people like photo shoots in parks or natural settings.  I love those photo shoots as well, but as an artist, doing something different is always on the top of my list.

A Beautiful City

Jacksonville is a beautiful city.  The skyline is so unique, the bridges add a punch of color and the glistening river adds to the beauty of the city.  You might thing, downtown Jax? ick...I know I know, I grew up here, I get it, but really look at our city, it really is gorgeous! 

Where did we go?

We started at the top of a parking garage, headed over to the antique Florida Theater for a vintage feel, and then walked around the city.  It was a cold morning in November and the kids were freezing, so we played lots of games and ran a ton to help keep them warm.  I think I succeeded! At least for a little while.

Do you Want an Urban Photo Shoot?

I would love to do another downtown shoot.  If you are a high school senior or a family looking for a downtown urban shoot, give me a call so we can get you on the books!

Check out some of my favorites from the Riding's family session.  It   was hard to choose just a few so i'm oversharing on this one.
