Alexander Family – Tampa Photography

Tampa family photographer

So excited to share the Alexander’s family session! Kate and Brandon are proud parents to precious boys Jude and Everett. We had so much fun in the sand on Davis Island during their session. I loved their warm-colored, cozy outfits. Kate did a great job putting them together! I loved having this sweet family in front of my camera again. It made me think back to their gender reveal when they found out their second baby was going to be a boy and Kate and Jude’s precious mommy & me session at their home. So sweet!

Claire is turning one!

January 13, 2021 Baby Claire, Michelle and David


Our little girl is ONE! This year flew by but also felt like forever (2020, you were weird). Claire is the sweetest addition to our family. She is content to sit and play on her own but also tries her best to keep up with big brother. She is happiest when she has a full belly and is laying on something soft. Her favorite foods are black olives, blueberries, cheese, sweet potatoes, croissants and pasta. She is a solid sleeper and nurses 3-4 times a day. She’s standing on her own and recently took her first few steps. She’ll be walking soon! Claire bear, we love you so much! Happy birthday, baby girl!

Here are Claire’s first birthday photos (Thank you Darlene Barlows Photography!). We did a lemon garden theme, inspired by Claire’s dress and matching bow – handmade by my talented friend Rachel (follow her on instagram here). I love it!!

To look back on Claire’s earliest days, here is the blog from her birth story and her newborn session and her six month portraits.

Stoker Family 2020

Michelle Stoker Photography

After photographing over 40 families this season, it was such a treat (and learning experience!) to have our family portraits taken at one of my favorite locations, Philippe Park in Safety Harbor. We had a toddler that skipped his nap and a baby going through stranger danger but we managed to get some really cute photos! I love my little people. Thankful to have this season documented with my sweet family! 

Thank you to Darlene Barlows Photography for taking our photos! Loved working with you again! VIEW POST

Jack – Tampa Newborn Photography

December 8, 2020 Newborn, Tampa

Westchase family photographer

Welcome to the world, baby Jack. This sweet little boy belongs to Lauren and Bobby and was handpicked by his big sister in Heaven. I absolutely loved taking these newborn photos, especially because I got to reconnect with Lauren. We were sorority sisters in college at UCF together and haven’t seen each other in years. She is still as kind and loving as I remember. Jack is so precious!!

Welcome to the world, baby Audrey! I had the best time photographing my friend Kelly and her adorable family recently at their home in Westchase. Baby Audrey was an angel during her photos and big sister Charlotte made our time together so much fun! Their home was full of beautiful, natural light and the softest, prettiest colors. It was such a joy to take these photos for the Walton family!

Look at these precious girls!! Eva and Rose are the sweetest little sisters. I am so thankful to know their sweet mama through our local Mom’s Group. We get to see each other at least twice a week for our toddler’s play school group. It’s been so much fun spending lots of time together playing and learning! Here are their recent family photos at Highland Park in Westchase.

Jayme Book – Tampa Branding Photographer

September 8, 2020 Branding, Tampa

Tampa Branding Photographer

My sweet friend Jayme wrote a BOOK!! Insert all the hand clap emojis here!! Jayme has a heart of gold and she thrives in creating hands-on learning activities for her precious daughter and toddlers/preschoolers all over the world. She has a successful teachers pay teachers business and shares countless ideas for learning through play on her Instagram. We met through our local Moms group when our 3 year olds were itty babies and we’ve been journeying through mom life together ever since. I am SO thankful for her friendship and am so excited for her as she releases her first children’s book!! I was so happy to capture some photos at their house to document the new book! It’s called 100 First Words for Toddlers and is a great addition to any toddler library. 

You can pre-order the book on Amazon here – it will be released on October 6th! 

You can follow along with Jayme on Instagram here and check out her education resources on TPT here. 

And if you want to cry (like I just did) about how fast kids grow, click here for Jayme’s branding session from last year and scroll to the bottom to see our tiny kids playing together.

Say hello to the Haydel family! We have been friends with sweet Ondrea and Luke for a while and have been in a community group together for the past few years. So thankful that we connected through Westtown Church! It’s been so fun to watch their family grow over the years, especially big brother Mac and little Della! We recently got together in Westchase for updated family photos and to document the birthday kids, both August babies! And we included Ondrea’s beautiful mom, loved including Grandma in these photos!

Megan and Sophie 2 – Tampa Family Photographer

August 10, 2020 Family, Tampa

Costco pandemic photo session

This was my third time photographing Megan and her sweet daughter, Sophie, and I have to say that they are so fun every time!! We did Sophie’s one year mommy & me photos at Armature Works last year and I absolutely loved shooting in that setting. Such a cool place! When Megan mentioned her idea of photos in the Costco parking lot for Sophie’s 2nd birthday to get some “2020 pandemic fun shots”, I was so ready for the challenge! I never thought I would have a session in the Costco parking lot. Ha!! Megan has such a fun personality and I know she’ll show these photos to her daughter when she’s older and talk about how Costco was one of the few places they went for a few months and the craze of finding toilet paper while the world was locking down. 2020, such a wild time to turn two!

Hi friend, I am so glad that you are here!

My goal as a photographer is to provide authentic and joyful photos of you and your most loved ones. I love my morning cappuccino, reading books with my toddler boy and baby girl, and exploring new places with my high school sweetheart.
