I was referred to the "M" family by a fellow Hoosier. They are from the Indy area and scheduled a session with me based off the referral they received. I always love getting referrals from past clients. I also love being a family beach photographer here in the Naples, Florida area because it brings lots of tourists from my old stomping grounds (Indiana). It truly means the world to me that clients are out there promoting me and sending others my way. It's the best form of "thank you" you could ever give.I had such fun with this family. They brought their family pet along and he was a real trooper. Although the sea salt air had him sneezing up a storm, we still managed to get some great shots with him looking at us.
I clicked some fabulous captures of their son and daughter too. They were quite the photogenic group.
Mom wanted some of the kids by themselves as well but only their daughter would agree. She was a pro and a gorgeous one at that...
We had a real hazy day on this particular day but it made for some stunning lighting. I love sun flare. Love, love, love it. She reminded me of a girl straight off the Cali beaches here.
I always force the parents for some one on one images with the two of them also. These two were very willing. Others aren't usually so game. :) Beautiful couple.
It was another gorgeous evening on the beaches of Naples and I was honored to have been given the opportunity to document and capture another gorgeous family in the process.
Thank you "M" family. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with you guys.
I had the great pleasure of working with a family from New York a couple of weeks back. They were such a fun trio and their daughter was nothing short of a blue eyed doll baby. Can anyone say adorable???
She was only two years old but she had the personality of an old soul - loved her smile and her subdued looks as well...
We had a little fun on the pillars near the beach and boy did she jump when her daddy told her to "jump!"
She also partied up there like she was on top of the world. What a personality she had...
A huge thank you to the "L" family for allowing me the opportunity to work with them on a family session while they were vacationing here in Naples. I had so much fun with you guys.
Blessings, Angie
Last night we hit the beach. Just Brennen and I. I love those one on one moments I get to spend with him. They are far too rare these days. I took him to run some photography errands with me this weekend and then we stopped off at an impromptu dinner at Chili's. I love how he opens up to me when it is just the two of us. Not to mention the chocolate molten cakes for dessert that get us both pinging off the walls. :)
I took these shots of him while we were at the beach last night and I can never get enough of his eyes and eye lashes. Those things are lady killa's. No joke! They are the window to his soul and just so happen to be gorgeous all at the same time. When I posted this photo of him on facebook, a friend wrote and said "WOW! He looks like a little James Dean here." I hadn't noticed it but now that she said it, he does. Of course when I told him that, he had no idea who in the world James Dean was. I tried explaining that he was the "Robert Pattinson" back in the day. That helped a bit I believe. LOL! However, I went googling old vintage photos of James Dean and stumbled upon this one that has always been one of my favorite ones... 
He is one handsome young man if I do say so myself. He is also one very excited big brother whom is counting down the days until his baby brother finally arrives. Brennen has begged and pleaded for a baby brother since he was at least 5. It's been a long time want of his and it's finally coming true. He is so excited that he keeps a countdown tracker on his iphone with how many days we have remaining until baby Seaman's birth. As of today...we have 35 days exactly. Five weeks to go. Thirty five more sunsets until life changes drastically for us yet again. 
When I look over these images, it's hard to imagine that one day soon he'll have a little brother to frolick in the sand with and teach how to surf/boogie board in these beautiful Florida waves. One day soon I'll be taking photos of not only Brennen and Kenidi but of a new little guy together with them as well here on the white, sandy, shores of Naples.
In the meantime though, I'm going to relish in these one on one moments with Brennen like the dinner out this weekend, the photos at the beach last night, the funny times in the Halloween store as we shop for his little sister a costume and the life size "Jason" from Friday the 13th scares him to death. Again, he had no idea who "Jason" was. Friday the 13th, "Freddy" from nightmare on Elmstreet and the "pinned head" Hellraiser dude were all long before Brennen's time. It's just one more confirmation that I'm getting old. Really old.
Brennen is actually helping me out with a photo shoot this evening on the beach. I have a scheduled client/family that I'm doing a beach session for in Bonita Springs tonight. We'll be back on the beach together again - only this time - he is my helper - positioning reflectors and such where I might need them. The boy has an eye for photography. He really does. He impresses me when on shoots together because he sees things and opportunities that even I have yet to see. I love his extremely creative mind. He has always been that way too. Creative with everything. This morning, after getting his little sister on the bus, we hopped in the car early and headed down to Starbucks together. We had breakfast there, jammed to a little bit of "Bruno Mars" tunes and then I drove him to school. It's mornings like this that I enjoy so very much. I'm thankful that he comments on how he likes doing it as well. In a few short years he'll have his own car and be driving his own self to school. Those early morning breakfast dates out with my handsome son will be non-existent. For that reason, I'm soaking them up like a sponge in the sea. I'm treasuring those little dates just like I do the gorgeous Florida sunsets. You can never have too many. You will never tire of them - no matter how many times you've been present within their beauty... 
Thanks to my stud of a son for entertaining me with his presence this past week. I love you dearly...with all my heart...to the moon...to the sun...and back.
Love Mom.
Welcome to our new home. That's right...we've moved to Naples, Florida full time. It was an emotional decision for us and very difficult to leave Indiana but we LOVE the Southwest Florida area. We've been vacationing here for 10+ years so we know the environment well. I was at the beach today enjoying some down time with my Mom and snapped the shot above. Although a bird flew right in front of my lens as I snapped it, I loved it still. The entire image is everything that I love about the beach. I'm so thankful to be here, so blessed to call the Naples area "home" now.
Should you reside in this area or should your travels ever bring you this way, look me up. I'd love to photograph your family frolicking on the beach. I am currently booking sessions for 2010. Still need Christmas cards...I'm your gal. I'd love to fill up a couple of sessions for the month of December. I shoot within the Naples, Bonita Springs, Ft. Myers, Sanibel Island, Captiva Island, Cape Coral, Marco Island, and Miami/South Beach areas. As many of you know, I specialize in family, children, maternity, and engagement portraiture but also offer commercial work and product shoots as well.
Here is to new beginnings, new chapters, and change in general. I'm looking forward to making Southwest Florida my home and in turn working with each of you to capture your memories one frame at a time.
Much love, Angie Seaman
I found a few short minutes outside the other day to snap some shots of my own daughter, Kenidi Grace. She loves the crunching of the fall leaves and therefore, she had a ball purposely stomping on them as well as falling down and into the, every 2 feet. :) And every now and again, she'd slow down just long enough to let me capture an image of her.
I love those moments with my own children in front of the lens. (even thought they don't on most occasions) Wink wink! :0) 
We'll be back in Naples, Florida come next weekend (November 22nd). Should you have a need for beach sessions, family, maternity, engagement, newborn, or children's photography...do look me up. I'd love to capture your clan as well. :)
Happy Fall, Angie
