BPODS Parenting – Tampa branding photography

January 28, 2021 Branding, Tampa

BPODS Parenting Tampa

Parents of young children, meet my sweet and wise friend Brittany! Brittany is the owner of BPODS Parenting, where she serves as a positive parent coach. Brittany is a former teacher and reading coach and is now mom to two precious kids. She uses her past experiences and knowledge to support and serve parents today. I love how Brittany loves information and the science behind strategies. Brittany always has a thoughtful response to any parenting question and if not, she’s eager to research and find the answer.

Brittany’s vision for her branding session was comfortable and relaxed. She wanted a few professional headshots and a lot of fun, casual photos with her kids to portray her everyday life. We spent some time on their front porch and then moved inside for some play and reading on the floor. I know Brittany will love looking back on this photos as a reminder of life when her kids were little. I would love to do more in-home lifestyle family sessions, you don’t have to be a parent coach to do photos like this! 😉

Liz and Matt – Tampa Maternity Photography

January 26, 2021 Maternity

Tampa maternity photography

I am so excited to share Liz and Matt’s maternity photos! I love this sweet couple with my whole heart. Liz has been a longtime friend, since early high school! Matt was David’s random roommate their first year at UF. Even though they didn’t know each other before living together, they had a fun year together and formed a great friendship. Through mutual friends, Liz and Matt also developed a friendship, then relationship, then we got to witness them get married back in 2014. We love these two and are so happy that they found each other AND that they are expecting their first baby (A GIRL!!) next month. So excited to meet their little lady!

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!!

Westchase family photographer

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.

Hi friend! I’m so glad you’re here!

Hi friend! I’m so glad you’re here!

My goal as a photographer is to provide authentic and joyful photos of you and your most loved ones. I love my morning latte, reading books with my three little besties, getting outside in the sunshine, and exploring new places with my high school sweetheart.
