Read moreDowntown Ybor Senior Session// Zena Davis
I want to introduce you to one of my ABKP Senior Spokesmodels. Zena and I had the best time exploring downtown Ybor. It fits her personality perfectly. She is fun, adventure, and beautiful inside and out. Get to know Zena better below :)
What high hchool do you attend?: HB Plant High School
What is your dream college?!: University of Virginia
Tell me about yourself: :) What are you passionate about? What are you most excited for about senior year?: Hey! I'm Zena! Born under the sun in Tampa, Fl, I was taught by my awesome God loving parents to appreciate the beauty of the world around me. Traveling and spending time with friends have got to be my favorite things, put me on a road trip with some cool people and candy and I'm bound to have a blast. At the moment any of my free time is used teaching myself how to play my pretty Taylor guitar, mastering using a Canon DSLR and working at a local Tampa boutique. I would say I'm passionate about the two most important things in life: Jesus and coffee... if you know me it's glaringly obvious. Nowadays you'll typically find me sitting at a coffee shop in Tampa, music plugged into my ears, and my next adventure on my mind. Senior year, I'm looking forward to making memories and trying new things. High school has definitely been an adventure and challenge. To be honest I can't wait to look back after senior year is done and see how God worked within me, my friends and my school.
Describe your style: Cute but comfy
What activities are you involved in at school? outside of school?: Come fall I will be working part time at a Local boutique called The Write Stuff. In school, aside from classes, I will be First Priorities Club President.
How would your best friend describe you?: My best friend would describe me as adventurous, genuine, dependable, kind spirited and honest.
Fav Color :): Yellow
Looking for an unforgettable senior photography experience? I would be honored to be a part of your senior year!! Contact me or Zena for more info!!

Read moreCommercial Shoot// Christ the King Catholic School
What an honor it was to be asked to come back again for the second year to document and tell the story of Christ the King Catholic School here in South Tampa!! The way the teachers and staff invest in these students is incredible. Everyone always has a smile on their face and they create such a wonderful, safe environment for children to grow and learn. Would highly recommend checking them out. Here is a few of my favorites from my morning spent there!!
Read moreCross Creek Ranch Intimate Military Wedding // Colleen and Cody
From the moment Chase and I met Colleen and Cody at their engagement session, we had been looking forward to spending this day with them. Every single detail was perfect for Colleen and Cody's intimate celebration with their closest friends, family, and the cutest ring bearer (their adorable german shepherd Tegan). The weather was amazing. Cross Creek Ranch was absolutely stunning and made for the most romantic woodsy background. Colleen was a radiant bride and Cody looked so handsome in his Coast Guard dress blues. If I could describe Colleen and Cody as a couple in three words it would be joyful, laid back, and completely in love. They really do make a perfect team. Thank you for choosing us to be your photographers! It was such an honor to celebrate with y'all on Sunday!! Here are a few of my favorite sneak peeks!!

Davis Island, University of Tampa Senior Session // Amy Hall
YAY! Amy's senior session at Davis Island and University of Tampa last Saturday morning was just the best. She is so easy-going and down to earth, oh and did I mention how beautiful she is? She is the editor and chief of Plant's Yearbook (which is a huge job and honor!) She would love to attend Auburn University in the fall which is such a great school. I absolutely loved getting to know her during our time together and can't wait to share with you some of my favorite images from her session below!! Amy, enjoy every minute of this year!! Can't wait to see all that you will accomplish and the plans God has for you!
Read moreOxford Exchange, University of Tampa Senior Session// Rachel Ferreri
I met Rachel the morning of her session at Oxford Exchange and we had the best time! She is so genuine which made it so easy to get to know her and her heart! She is the editor of Plant High School's school newspaper and is interesting in attending Indiana University or Florida State once she graduates in May! Her red dress contrasted beautifully against the white was brick at Oxford Exchange. We walked over to University of Tampa afterwards and got some more beautiful scenic backdrops! Rachel, I hope you have a wonderful senior year and can't wait to see all you will accomplish :) Thank you for choosing me to capture your senior year! Here are some of my favs!
Read moreHyde Park Davis Island Engagement Session Tampa, FL// Zachary & Sara
Oh my heart! These two are true gems. Sara and Zachary have dated for 5 years and met their freshman year of college. He popped the question recently and she said yes! We met in Hyde Park and started the session at Buddy Brew Coffee. We were only 15 minutes into the session when it started to downpour! While we ran inside Buddy Brew to take cover from the storm, I got to know them, their hearts, and just how perfect they are for each other. After it stopped raining we drove over to the end of Davis Island and popped champagne and caught the final glimpse of the sunset! I love how Sara incorporated pink roses and champagne into the shoot. Being a style blogger (check out her site here), she really has the coolest vision and I loved getting to help bring her vision to life!! Here are some of my absolute favorites from the session.
Read moreTampa Art Museum, Curtis Hixon Senior Session// Elizabeth Doney
Elizabeth is incredible! It was so easy to get to know her while walking in downtown Tampa with her and her girls. Her heart , dreams, goals, and passions are inspiring. We started at the Straz Center, which was super fitting for her personality because she has a true love for theatre. Elizabeth is the Thespian Troupe president at Plant High School as well as president of Youth in Government Club. Then we made our way over to the Tampa Museum of Art, which has some really cool walls and made for the neatest backdrops!! Elizabeth's dream college is Columbia in New York! I can't even wait to see her make her mark on this world!! Here are some of my favorites from her senior session :)
Read moreSt Pete Beach, FL Family Session // The Peterson Family
This past Friday morning I got to meet the cutest family from Arizona!! They were in town for vacation and wanted family portraits on the beach. Conner, Ryan, and Gavin are the cutest and we had so much fun together during their session. Gavin had just turned one so we had to grab a few shots just of him. Hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation and Disney World!!
Read moreFripp Island Resort, SC Senior Session// Rosemary
This is a sweet post for me, because my sister is one of my best friends. I just can't get over the fact that my little sister (as in 7 years younger was truly my baby doll growing up) is a SENIOR in high school. Maybe it's partially the acknowledgement that it will be 7 years since I graduated high school when she graduates, but man I feel like I'm holding back tears just typing this. She has become so beautiful inside and out, and is one of the best friends and sister a girl could ask for. So let me tell you about Rosemary, my twin or "mini me" with red hair (oops sorry I'm suppose to say strawberry blond ;) Rosemary is seriously amazing. She is smart, funny, sassy, yet kind, and loves her family and Jesus so well. On top of being in challenging classes in school, she is a swimmer, a musician, and really anything else she sets her mind to be. I always joke when describing Rose to my friends as the sassier version of me, which its true. I wish i could think as fast on my feet as she can, or do really cool Russian accents that have people rolling on the floor laughing.
It's your year Rose. Take a moment to breathe in and out and remember that God has incredible plans for you. I can't wait to see all the things you accomplish, the lives you touch, and the journey God has for you. We are your biggest cheerleaders!! Love you!
Read moreDowntown Charleston, SC Engagement // Anna Marie and Ben
When Anna Marie reached out to me a few months ago starting with "I know this is a long shot because we know how far Tampa is from SC, but we love your work and are going to dream big here and see if you were available Jan 21, 2017 in Rock Hill, SC." I couldn't have been more honored and truly so excited. I knew Anna Marie through FCA at Clemson and Chase knew Ben through mutual friends at Clemson as well. What I love about their story though is that Ben and Anna were just friends throughout college. They both moved to Charleston after graduation, and pretty soon after that's when Ben asked her out on their first date. After dating for about a year after, Ben proposed in the sweetest way and Anna said YES! It was so fun to watch this relationship grow from a far :)
Read moreSand Key State Park, Clearwater, FL Engagement// Jordan and Drew
Jordan & Drew 💕. Their love and laughter is infectious. Chase and I walked away from their engagement session feeling like we were old friends. We almost had to reschedule due to rain, but the Lord answered our prayers and brought out the sun. It made for such a beautiful blue backdrop. We couldn't be more ecstatic for their February wedding on a yacht ⛴⚓️🛳😍 (I mean come on, dying over here). Here are a few of my favorite images from their dreamy session!!
