Baby Plan Babe turns 6 Months Lake City FL Family Portrait Photographer | Lake City FL Photographer

Last month I caught up with one of my baby plan babes to capture his 6 month portraits. I LOVE watching these babies grow. When it’s time for their next session to come around I think I am as surprised as their parents that they have already grown that much! We decided to meet on his mother’s family property (where we captured her Maternity portraits). Gorgeous property, gorgeous light & even though he was ever so serious, Mr. K’s blue eyes sparkled & his faces made for lots of laughs. Such a doll.

If you are interested in capturing your little one’s milestone months alone or as part of a Baby Plan you can find out all the information on the Melody Coarsey Photography website or by using the contact form at the bottom of the page.

Happy Mother’s Day 2013! Lake City FL Family Portrait Photographer | North Central FL Family Portrait Photographer

It’s the Friday before Mother’s Day & I wanted to make this blog post all about Moms & their love for their children. So I decided the best way to do this was to fill a slideshow with some of my favorite images of moms & the ones they love dearest……Call you mom, send flowers, give her a big hug…if you are a mom, squeeze those little ones tighter. Enjoy the handmade gifts, without all of that you wouldn’t be a mom. Just Click the link below (as it’s not letting me embed the video into the post…ugh, technology)

Sunrise is for Love……. Lake City FL Couples Portrait Photographer | Lake City FL Photographer

Earlier last month (I can’t believe it’s May!), I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph for the 3rd time a wonderful couple. This time they brought their furry babies along & we met EARLY at the beach for a portrait session. The lighting & everything was beautiful. Absolute perfection. The furry babies did great (& so did their mom & dad) & as always with these two there were lots of laughs.

Thank you so much Chris & Nikki for letting me capture your love & little family again.  To see more of my work or to find out about scheduling a Beach session for you & the one you love or for your family head to the Melody Coarsey Photography website.

The Bay Family Lake City FL Family Portrait Photographer | Lake City FL Photographer

Earlier this month I met with some wonderful clients for an Urban family session….all planned around something different then their sessions in the past & my burgundy couch.  We decided on downtown for a fun session with many different background options.

I LOVED the colors they picked (as I do love color) to style in. Especially with the setting, it worked perfectly. The girls did amazing…especially as this was my 3rd time photographing the youngest member of the family & the first time where we didn’t have to work too hard for smiles from her. All the girls are so gorgeous in this family…lucky daddy right?

Thank you so much Bay Family for letting me capture your family again!

Little Doll….. Lake City FL Family Portrait Photographer | Lake City FL Portrait Photographer

Earlier this month I was able to capture a precious little girl in a very special outfit. Her babysitter (who has treated her & loved her like family since day 1) had her family in Korea ship in a traditional Korean dress. The outfit was gorgeous with the pinks & greens & Miss A looked like a little doll all dressed up. Sure she wasn’t your “traditional Korean doll” with her blonde hair & blue eyes, but she was gorgeous & you could tell how much it meant to “Sooki Mama” as Miss A calls her.

18 months & all boy! Gainesville FL Family Portraits | Gainesville FL Family Portrait Photographer

On Good Friday I met up with some friends at the Baughman Center in Gainesville. Such a gorgeous spot. I have been lucky enough to have been photographing little Aidan since he was a newborn 18 months ago. (ok, had to share a newborn shot…too cute…notice the old logo, lol)

Now he’s funny, fast & all boy who loves to smile & play. We had a wonderful time & I loved how the session went…even if little Aidan has been corrupted by his dad & knows the FSU tomahawk chop instead of the UF chomp. (kidding!);-)

Thank you Barnes family for sharing your little man with me again!

Miss M :: 18 days new Jacksonville FL Newborn Portraits | Jacksonville FL Newborn Portrait Photographer

Last month I met up with a tiny little doll at her home for her newborn portraits. Though she wanted to be awake for the first hour or more, she was content listening to the rain & letting me take her portraits. I don’t think she got fussy until she got hungry, she was that sweet. Once she gave in to sleep we were able to capture some wonderful portraits of her sweet self. She was like a little doll. Easy to work with, & just so perfect.  Have I mentioned I love my job? <3

Thank you so much to the Cathey family for allowing me to capture your beautiful newest addition. And her extra big smiles she gave when daddy kissed her (her mom & I about died when that happened…so sweet).

Perfect Spring Portraits….. Lake City FL Family Portrait Photographer | High Springs FL Family Portrait Photographer

Last month I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph a family for the 2nd time. I met them last year, when I shot Rylee’s 1st birthday portraits…now she’s 2 & growing so fast! Super cute & full of spunk…she loved making all kinds of faces (though all of the cute!).

The private residence location turned out perfect for the session, complete with some blooming clover. Thank you so much Swilley family for allowing me to yet again capture these memories for you!

Happy, Happy Birthday to Me! Lake City FL Family Portrait Photographer | Lake City FL Child Portrait Photographer

Today is my birthday!! I don’t feel 34 (many days I feel older, lol), but to celebrate I wanted to give something to ALL OF YOU! And I even changed it a bit from what I said on the newsletter. Why? Because I felt this was more appropriate.

To celebrate ALL session packages of $200 or more (of any kind, maternity, Newborn, family, Child, Themed, etc..) booked from today through April 30th for a May through August portrait session…

It’s an odd number, but it’s my new age & I gotta embrace it right? This is for new sessions booked only & cannot be used towards sessions already booked.  To book your portrait session head to the Melody Coarsey Photography website or you can email me directly at: melody@melodycoarseyphotography.com

Thank you all & have a wonderful (albeit rainy) day!
