Award Winning Family Photographer | From Maternity & Babies to Seniors & Underwater Space Coast - Brevard County FL Woodbine - Kingsland, GA Photographer | Lifestyle Family PhotographyWelcome to the blog R Family! I'm so glad you all were able to get a family session with me before your upcoming move. These two adorable boys had a blast running and playing with bubbles during their session. One of Mom's wishlist shots was to get a family photo for her wall with a beautiful sunset behind them. The sky and boys all cooperated and I was so glad we were able to get the photo she so wanted. We met again to get a few more of just the boys (thus the location and clothing change in the second group of pictures). Here are a few more favorites from this session.
Thank you R Family for trusting me with your family photographs this year! Good luck on your next adventure! You will be missed! <3 Kim Owner/Photographer-Artist Kimberly Tank Art & Photography Need updated photos of your family? Want a beautiful portrait of your family on your wall?

Woodbine - St Marys GA Family Photographer | Lifestyle Family SessionThis silly, adorable bunch loved running and playing with bubbles at their fall family session. Their smiles and laughter were infectious and big brother even broke out some dance moves that had us all giggling. We had a good mixture of playful images and some "looking at the camera" shots to fill their album. Check out some favorites from this session...
Other than the bubbles, I think their favorite thing was to race from Mom and Dad to me. Towards the end, the competition started getting to them and we ended up with a funny shot with the littlest running towards me and I couldn't not include it!

Saint Marys GA -Yulee FL Family Photographer | Lifestyle Family Photography in the ParkThe S family recently moved to the area and needed family photos. They wanted a laid back lifestyle session to really capture their family before they add another little one to the mix. They even waited to tell the boys they were going to get a little brother or sister until during the session. They were both pretty excited about it! They're going to be fabulous big brothers to the new little one. We chose this location so we had a place where they could explore and play. And explore and play they did! The session started with cloudy skies, but the sun broke out after a bit and gave us some really beautiful light coming through the trees. This first photo is one of my favorites from this session and was completely unprompted. I loved how playful they were with each other and really enjoyed capturing this sweet family. Sessions like these are perfect for filling an album, and that's just what they did! They have a handful of their favorites to put up on their walls too.
This last one was taken by one of the boys (with some help) and I had to include their shot of their beautiful momma. I love when we can see ourselves as our children see us. Thank you S Family for allowing me to capture this special time for you all! <3 Kim Owner/Photographer-Artist Kimberly Tank Art & Photography Need updated photos of your family?

Kingsland GA Newborn Photographer | In-home Newborn PhotographyThe B Family welcomed sweet Miss M into the world and she is so stinking' cute. Her big sister and big brother are so excited to have a new baby sister and often refer to her as "my baby". This little munchkin is going to be spoiled by everyone in the house! We did her newborn session in her home because no one wants to have to go anywhere in those first couple weeks with a newborn if you don't have to. Mom needs rest, and getting out of the house can be challenging in those early days, especially when you have two other kiddos. She rocked her session and actually slept for most of it, even with a few wardrobe changes. She even gave us a huge smile when getting her picture with Mom! Check out a few more favorites from this session...
Thank you B family for trusting me with your precious memories year after year. I love capturing your growing family and helping preserve your legacy. I am looking forward to watching another little one grow! Love you all! <3 Kim Owner/Photographer-Artist Kimberly Tank Art & Photography Expecting or just had a baby?

St Marys GA - Fernandina Beach FL Child Photographer | Project 52 - OctoberDespite being the busiest month of the year for me, I was determined to get caught up on my personal project in October. It's so easy as photographers to get focused on our client work and let the personal stuff slide, but my personal projects are just as important to me, even if I'm not getting paid for them. So many photographers fall in love with photographing their children before turning it into a business and then the reason they fell in love gets lost sometimes. It's important to me to not lose sight of my goals for capturing my son as he grows. This is where I have the freedom to try something new/creative if I want and grow as a photographer. It is through these projects that I have become better at seeing the little moments worth capturing which then translates into better moments captured for my clients. If you're a photographer reading this, don't forget that capturing your family is important too! Here are the photos I took in October. Obviously since I was catching up there are more photos than weeks ;).
39/52 - Little Gymnast My son loved watching gymnastics on the Olympics this year and would run around the couch doing somersaults and ending with his hands in the air. He's always been a bit of a monkey and I had previously debated letting him try gymnastics but hadn't yet. After the Olympics, he really wanted to do gymnastics so we did a trial class at TNT Gymnastics in Jacksonville, and he LOVED it. I signed him up to start in September and it's now one of his favorite parts of the week.
40/52 - Word on the Street We went to my mom's in Gulf Breeze during the evacuation for Hurricane Matthew. We were running around the empty culdesac and my son stopped to check out the word on the street. We couldn't figure out why it was there or what it was referring to, but seemed like a fun capture.
41/52 - Monkey in a Tree I mentioned before that he's a monkey, right? Well when we came home from my mom's house, we discovered one of our trees in the backyard had blown over at the base (thankfully not on top of anything). My son discovered that it was perfect for climbing. He was very sad that it couldn't stay for him to climb on forever, but I captured some of his fun climbing it before we cut it down.
42/52 - Deep in Thought We went to check out a new location in Jacksonville and did some exploring. He stopped for a moment and looked out over the river, and with the framing of the posts, I couldn't resist this capture. The textures made me go black and white with this one.
43/52 - Sleepy-head It had been a long day and my son had been staying up too late and he no longer naps during the day unless we are out and about in the car in the afternoon. I was prepping dinner while he had a snack at the table and then I realized it was really quiet. When I went to check on him, this is what I found. You cannot escape sleep, it will find you lol.
44/52 - Pumpkin Carving My little boy is growing up... he may not quite be 5 yet but he wants to do as much on his own as he is able. That meant this year, he wanted to carve his pumpkin without any help. I did draw the shapes he told me he wanted on it and helped scoop the seeds, but he did the carving himself this year. And yes, we found a white pumpkin this year. It almost seemed like a cross between a pumpkin and a honeydew melon... is that even possible?
45/52 - Hawkeye Thought my son has never seen an Avenger movie, he loves Hawkeye. So of course, that's what he wanted to be for Halloween. I love making his costume each year and found a great and easy tutorial on Pinterest for not only modifying a t-shirt of the costume but also for making a bow and arrows. He loves his costume and probably especially the bow and arrows. Maybe we'll sign him up for archery when he gets a little older. I really wanted to do a fun shoot with him in his costume this year. We went down to Fernandina Beach for the merchant trick or treat Halloween morning but arrived early enough to do some fun pictures first. The brick buildings made the perfect backdrop and my son had fun shooting the arrows. This was one of my favorites but I have so many favorites from this session that I may put them all in it's own post!
Do you have a favorite? I'd love to know! <3 Kim Owner/Photographer-Artist Kimberly Tank Art & Photography Need updated photos of your kiddo? Want to capture the essence of who they are right now?

Jacksonville FL Family Photographer | Beach Lifestyle Family PhotographyI said this in my last post, but I really love lifestyle family sessions and capturing the connections between family members. We get a few "looking at the camera" shots and mostly we play! This sweet, adorable family had so much fun playing at this beach on Big Talbot Island. It's the perfect place for these boys who love to run, climb, and explore! You can see how much love and playfulness this family shares. I'm so honored to have captured this family again this year and look forward to continuing to watch these sweet boys grow. They have these beautiful memories preserved to look at every day on their walls and in their book. I had so many favorites from this session, it was hard to narrow down!
Thank you G Family! See you again next year! <3 Kim Owner/Photographer-Artist Kimberly Tank Art & Photography Need updated photos of your family?

Fernandina Beach FL Family Photographer | Neighborhood Lifestyle Family SessionAs much as I enjoy getting that coveted "everyone smiling at the camera" shot for my clients, I really LOVE capturing the connections and special moments during a lifestyle session. So when Mrs. A commissioned me for her family session and told me she wanted to do it in her neighborhood and keep it laid back, I knew this was going to be an awesome session. I hadn't been to her neighborhood before, so I was amazed at how gorgeous their street was. We had spoken about their vision for the session and the images and I worked with that to help create something special for them. I have so many favorites from this session and it was so much fun to shoot. We hung out around their home and in their neighborhood, capturing them in a place they love. This family is so sweet, fun, and loving and I love how that comes out in their images. You can see it in their faces and the way they look at each other.
The boys were coming to tickle me, can you tell? I love the look on Mr. Q's face and the hand at the ready!
They had the coolest tree swing in their back yard and of course, we had to get a good swing shot! I love interactive family images where everyone is laughing like in the next two images.
Mr. H has the best hair and the wind blowing it around in his face brings out his "wild" side. He loves to shake it back and forth too!
Towards the end of the session Mr. H was getting tired and was ready to nurse. I love capturing these sweet and fleeting moments between a mother and her nursling.
Thank you J Family for trusting me to capture these sweet moments for you! These will be treasured for many years to come. <3 Kim Owner/Photographer-Artist Kimberly Tank Art & Photography Need updated photos of your family?
