Sinking ships . . .. .

On February 22nd, I got to witness the sinking of a new artificial reef just off the coast of West Palm Beach.  As anyone that knows me is aware, I am addicted to scuba diving and being in the water.  When my friends, owners of Little Deeper Charters, invited me to go out with them to witness the sinking of a tugboat that would become the newest dive site in Palm Beach County, I couldn't pass it up.  To learn more about this wreck, check out this article from Florida Dive Connections - The Danny McCauley Memorial Reef.  This was an amazing opportunity to see and I got to dive on the new wreck about an hour after it was sunk.  Here are just a few of the photos from that day.  To see the full gallery, please check out:  http://smu.gs/YaQA0k

Baby Bump + on the Beach

I just have to say I love taking photos of this lady and her adorable niece. They make being a portrait photographer a joy.  We always have a lot of fun and they photograph so well.  This is my second maternity session with her.  I wanted to take more when she was farther along and didn't have to push out her belly.  We did these images on the beach in Indialantic, FL and it turned out to be a beautiful sunny day (though the water was a little chilly).  Below are a couple of my favorites and a few behind the scenes/outtake pictures.

To see more of the photos from this great photo shoot, go to Beyond the Box Photography and/or check them out on my Facebook Page .

Yep, that water is cold! 

She is always laughing and smiling!

Beautiful Meranda

Last week I had the opportunity to a maternity shoot with this lovely lady.  She was down visiting her family from Georgia and her mother (another local Palm Bay photographer) graciously allowed me to share in this shoot.  I just love the way the images turned out. Here are a few of my favorites (scroll down):

If you'd like to see the rest of the images, they are posted on Beyond the Box Photography . . . . . oh, BTW, they are nude maternity (tasteful and non-revealing, of course), but if you're easily offended   . . . . . . . then just wait for the next set of maternity images that I shot yesterday at the beach.

Drumroll Please . . . . .

Finally finished all the photos from the Georgia Aquarium.  I had a good case of the plague which meant no editing for this photographer.  Guess I'm used to this warm Palm Bay, Florida weather and the cold temps in Georgia did me in.

Anyway, Imaging USA held the closing party at the Georgia Aquarium (if you have a chance to go - do it!  It was awesome!).  Since I didn't want to have to fight 10,000 other photographers, I went earlier in the day by myself and took a ton of fish portraits.  Below are a few of my favorites.  To see the rest of the gallery, go to my website at http://smu.gs/XIHVDD
