I recently went on two back-to-back trips (one for a race and one for vacation we planned a year ago) and got to practice some photos in a different landscape!

I really wished I lived closer to water bodies with rocks on the edge and no alligators because this was a blast! 😂 Photos are of my own dogs and a couple are of my friend's dog.❤️

Good morning everyone!

I wanted to make an announcement that I will be increasing my prices starting January 1, 2024. However, if you have scheduled an appointment with me BEFORE January 1, 2024 at any point in time, you will be grandfathered into receiving the current (soon to be old) pricing for the entirety of 2024!

As a reminder my prices currently are as follows:
- $50 for a 20-30 minute session which includes 10 edits and all originals.
- $100 for an hour session which includes 20 edits and all originals
- A $15 travel fee is added to sessions that are more than 45 minutes from me and outside of Alachua County to help cover gas.

I generally recommend an hour if there are more than 2 subjects that will need to be photographed separately and together, but I'm happy to do my best with what works for you.

As of January 2024, my prices will be as follows:
- $75 for a 20-30 minute session
- $125 for an hour session
- The $15 travel fee will be added on top of the new prices where necessary

For the sake of transparency, the reasons I am increasing my prices are the following:
I always spend well over 6 hours on a half session selecting and editing your photos. That means with travel, I'm spending a minimum of 7 hours on photos taken in those 20-30 minute sessions, and I usually spend a minimum of $6 in gas for the mileage I drive to/from appointments. I've also continued improving my skillset and expanded to taking clients without pets or for family/graduation photos, and purchased two new lenses over the last couple of years, so the quality and scope of my work has increased.

I really enjoy taking photos for you all and want to keep prices affordable, so I plan to offer more opportunities to receive the old pricing in the coming years. Thank you in advance for your understanding and patience with these changes.❤️

Please share this information with your friends and family! There's still time to book a family/pet holiday photoshoot and graduation photos, so contact me if you're interested!

I will also do family and couple portraits in natural areas on request.

These lovely people, Deanna and Troy, are such an adorable pair and I'm so happy they found each other.❤️ I enjoyed taking photos for them!

If you're interested in photos for a certain season or holiday, reach out to me! There's still time to get some winter photos for holiday cards.

If asked, I do offer graduation photos in natural areas around Gainesville, and I love including your pets!

Thank you Spencer, Jordan and Milkshake for being awesome models and congratulations!❤️

Hello everyone! I finally took the time to make a portfolio using Adobe. You can see my portfolio, including many more photos from past photoshoots I've shared here, at the following link: https://southernpinek9s.myportfolio.com

Note the site was made on computer, so formatting was done based on that. It may look a little funky on mobile, but should still work. Let me know your thoughts!

Did you know October is wildflower season in Florida?

There's still time to book a wildflower shoot at a select few locations, though many require a bit of a hike. Plan for next year and reach out about a "fall color" session!

I love pumpkin patch photoshoots. Beautiful German shepherd Grimm and his guardian really matched the season in this one!

If you enjoy seasonal photoshoots, message me about scheduling photos for your Christmas cards!

I was so excited when Elizabeth reached out to me for another photoshoot recently, and this time we took photos of her and sweet Ellie together! They are both such lovely models and the bond they share is beautiful.❤️
