Mother's Day Love.... Palm Beach Family Photographer

I am so honored to be able to capture special moments for the families I work with.  In honor of Mother's day, I've put together a little collage of some of the 2012 momma's I've photographed this year! :)  Thank you all for choosing me to capture these moments with your precious babies!  I absolutely love what I do.  And I wouldn't be where I am without the amazing example of what a mother is from my own fabulous mom.... and the love & support from my team at home!  Love you all!  Happy Mother's Day 2012!!

My fabulous Mom:

The two precious miracles who made me a mom.... the BEST job of all! 

Sweet A & M at the Horse Farm.... Palm Beach Child Photographer

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of working with two very talented local photographers on a shoot that for me was such a creative outlet!  I headed up to Palm City, FL with Sandra Bianco Photography and Brooke Logue Photography to photograph some absolutely adorable cuties with some beautiful horses!  The warm sun.... beautiful kiddos.... and great company made this shoot such a fun experience!  What was even better was getting to photograph some amazing neckalces by Isla Charm Designs  - be sure to check her out for gorgeous M2M Matilda Jane pieces!!!  Here are a few of my favorites from the Horse Farm...

 

 

5 day old Mr. M... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

One of the greatest joys of my job is getting to watch families grow & change.  I love when clients choose me again and again to continue to document their families' growth.  One of these families is the fabulous W family.... I first met them almost 2 years ago for X's newborn photos.... and then got to see them several times over the past two years.... here, and here, and here.... and earlier this week I was so excited to see them again to help welcome the newest member of the family... baby M.  Sweet Baby M was the perfect newborn model for me!  He slept the entire time & pretty much let me and my friend Tristine (from T Davis Images) pose him however we wanted.  I also LOVED capturing some shots of M with his adorable big brother! 

Here are a few of my favorites so far..... enjoy this little sneak peek! :)

Sweet & Sassy Miss A.... Palm Beach "tween" photographer

It was so much fun working with A for some fun "tween" photos to show off her fabulous personality!!!  We had a blast exploring all of the fun nooks & crannies at Downtown at the Gardens.  This was the perfect place for a tween shoot! 

Here are some of my favorites.... :)

Matilda Jane CHICKS! Palm Beach Childrens Photographer

Wow.... anyone who knows me, knows I have a major shopping addiciton to Matilda Jane Clothing.  I find their clothing second to none in terms of quality & cuteness.  Their outfits are the perfect portriat clothing in my opinion because the mix of colors, textures, and patterns brings such interest to the images.  It is so easy to mix & match their pieces with each other too, which is one of the things I love most about MJC. 

For the release of their newest line, Serendipity, I wanted to create a really fun session for my friends & clients who purchased MJC from my trunk show!  I had the fabulous , Trisha Varney Photography Designer, create some super amazing set designs for this shoot!  We had a blast capturing all of our adorably sweet MJ models in this super-fun shoot!!!

Here are some of my favorites of my MJ chicks....

Sweet Miss A and the H family... Palm Beach Family Photographer

It was so much fun getting to see Miss A again.  I loved watching her grow last year & now she is 19 months old & cute as a button!  We had a great time exploring Palm Beach while capturing some fun new images for her family.  Here are a few of my favorites from  our session last week....

The Lovely B Family.... Palm Beach Family Photographer

It was such a pleasure working with the B family yesterday!  They were just lovely!  Lovely family.... lovely kids.... just lovely!  Mr. P and Miss F were too cute for words!  I loved how much Mr P enjoyed doing "Hip, Hip, Hoorays" with his Daddy... when his Daddy would throw him up in the air.  You could clearly see all of the love in this family and it was my pleasure capturing it!  Thanks for a fabulous session!

The Princess and the Pea.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

It was so much fun working with the R family again to welcome their newest little one... Princess E.  I photographed her big brother's newborn portraits 2 years ago, so it was great seeing C again & how big he has gotten!  Miss E was just a dream baby & so easy to photograph!  I loved working with her!  Here are a few of my favorites from her session!!!

 

Here she is with her proud big brother!!

Sweet Miss H... 13 days.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

It was so nice meeting sweet Miss H this morning for some newborn portraits!  She was such a cute little peanut for me!  I was so excited to finally use my new periwinkle blanket for some shots & I just LOVE the pop of color it gives these images!  Here are a few sneak peeks from her session!!

Kristi Mangan Photography + A Star is Born 3d.... Palm Beach Newborn Photographer

I am thrilled to announce that you can now view my work in Palm Beach County's premier 3d/4d Ultrasound Studio - A Star is Born 3d.  I was honored when they called me a few weeks ago & asked me to display work in their gorgeous offices.  I enjoyed picking out some of my favorite colorful images to put on display! 

Back when I was pregnant with my youngest, Ellie, I had a 3d ultrasound scan completed at my doctor's office.... which was, well... a doctor's office.  It was truly amazing to see what my little peanut looked like before I got to meet her!  I only WISH that this facility had been around back then!  This facility has such a nice, warm, and inviting feeling to it!  A Star is Born 3d is family owned & operated.... by the sweetest family!  Whenever I walk in, I am greeted in their beautiful baby boutique with a friendly "Hello" and a warm smile!  It is an honor to have my images displayed in their lovely store. 

If you are ever in the neighborhood (located off of Northlake Blvd - across from Costco).... you just HAVE to stop in & check out their sweet baby boutique items & take a peek at my images on display!  Let them know that you head about them through Kristi Mangan Photography.  

They also have a new Facebook page.... so be sure to head on over there & "like" their page!

Here are a few images of their beautiful new studio & my images on display....
