The Pittman Family

The Pittman Family was such a joy to photograph! It was so easy to see that their sweet girl is every beat of her mom and dad’s hearts, and she completely stole mine, too. Her personality, her smiles, and the love between the three of them made this session so special.

One of my favorite moments was watching her share a daddy-daughter dance on the beach under the full moon. It was one of those simple, beautiful moments that felt a little bit magical and made the perfect ending to their evening.

The Pittman Family made memories that will be cherished for years to come.

Waiting for Baby Lucas | Matt & Stephanie’s Maternity Session

There is something so special about getting to capture a family as it grows! 🤍

It was such a joy to capture this beautiful maternity session for Matt & Stephanie as they prepare to welcome their precious baby boy, Lucas, in just a few short months. We had the honor of capturing so many special memories for them when they were expecting their first baby boy, Ryan, which made having him there for this chapter even sweeter.

Watching Ryan love on Mommy and be a part of celebrating his baby brother made the evening extra special. Baby Lucas is already surrounded by so much love, and we know Matt, Stephanie & Ryan simply cannot wait to welcome him into their family!

They spent this beautiful fall evening making memories together that they will cherish for a lifetime, and we feel so blessed to have been there to capture another special chapter in their family’s story. 

Charity + Chris’s Surprise Engagement

What Charity thought was going to be a sweet couples session turned into a moment she will remember forever! 💍🤍

Chris had something much bigger planned… a surprise proposal! He wanted every detail to feel extra special and completely personal to Charity, so Aunt Pat designed a gorgeous backdrop tailored to everything she loves, creating the perfect setting for Chris to ask the most important question.

And, of course, she said YES!

There was so much love between these two and so many sweet moments to capture. From the excitement of that first “yes,” to laughter, dancing, lots of hugs and kisses, and simply soaking in the beginning of this beautiful new chapter together—it was such a special evening!

Chris and Charity also made wishes on a keepsake starfish ornament that they’ll hang on their very first Christmas tree together. And to end the evening, Aunt Pat gifted them a keepsake jar filled with sand and shells from Johnson’s Beach—a little piece of the place where their forever officially began.

Congratulations, Chris & Charity! We are so thankful you trusted Lashes & Lenses Photography to capture such an unforgettable moment in your love story. Here’s to a lifetime of love, laughter, dancing, and many more beautiful memories together! 🤍

Best Friends Session

Best friends, boyfriends, and a lifetime of memories!

These two have grown up side by side, with families who are best friends too, making this session extra special. And of course, we had to include their boyfriends for a few photos, who just happen to be best friends themselves!

So many years of friendship, laughter, and memories, captured during a beautiful evening on the beaches of Perdido Key. It doesn’t get much sweeter than this!

The Boone Family and Engagement

The Boone family’s beach session turned into a night they will never forget! 🤍💍

Sweet Arianna thought she was simply enjoying family photos on the beach, but Brock had a very special surprise planned! She was completely surprised when he got down on one knee and asked her to spend forever with him.

What started as a beautiful evening with family turned into one of the most special nights of Arianna’s life, and we were so honored to capture every bit of the surprise, excitement, and love!

Congratulations, Arianna & Brock! 💍🤍 Here’s to forever!

Sandy and Kevin’s 50th Anniversary

What an incredible honor it was to capture Sandy & Kevin as they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary at beautiful Johnson’s Beach!

Every detail of their session had such a special meaning. Sandy & Kevin had beautiful new rings made especially to celebrate their 50 years of marriage, a symbol of five decades of love, commitment, memories, and a life built together.

And Sandy’s gorgeous green dress held a sweet story of its own. She chose green because that’s the color she was wearing the very first time she and Kevin met all those years ago! How precious is that?!

Of course, Aunt Pat helped make their celebration even more personal with a special 50th anniversary sign created just for them.

Fifty years together is something truly worth celebrating, and we loved getting to capture this beautiful milestone for Sandy & Kevin. From the meaningful little details to the love they still so clearly share, their evening was a beautiful reminder of just how special a lifetime of love can be.

Happy 50th Anniversary, Sandy & Kevin! Here’s to the beautiful memories you’ve made over the past five decades and all those still to come!

The Holck Family

The sweet Holck family had a beautiful evening for their family session. These precious girls were an absolute joy and brought so much happiness to the evening. They loved twirling in their dresses, making wishes on their starfish and having a bubble-blowing party as the sun began to set.

It was so special to watch three sisters who truly enjoy being together having so much fun making memories side by side. There was so much love, laughter, and joy that beautiful evening. They all created memories they will cherish for generations to come.
