Welcome Avery Lynn....

Avery Lynn has finally arrived......and yes, she is ready to take on the world!!! Miss Avery was born on 8.22.10 at 6lbs, 8oz., 19 inches to proud parents Dylan & Elena and big sister Audrey.  Sweet baby Avery looks just like Audrey when she was born...if not almost identical.  I had the opportunity to hold and sing to her as she looked up into my eyes and how precious it was!
Congrats to Elena, Dylan & Audrey on the newest member of your family!!!

A special thank you to my lovely sister who spent the time knitting some of these baby props.

Elena's soon to be special arrival

The beginning of August has much in store for me as this is the 1st of 2 maternity photo sessions I will be apart of! Elena, a very close and dear friend of mine had her maternity shoot scheduled at 36 weeks -- all I can say is WOW!! I wish I looked this great at 36 weeks :+) She is expecting her 2nd daughter at the end of August with much anticipation. As you can tell, Elena was extrememly comfortable with the camera and posed effortlessly as her belly moved from side to side :+) Elena's husband and daughter also participated in the festivities -- as they are both eager to meet baby girl #2. Thank you B. family for allowing me to be apart of this journey with you.

Summer time is for lovers....

It was another hot summer day at the Cocoa Beach Pier in July while Coronas and Pina colodas were the preferred choice of beverage. I've had the opportunity to share a Sunday evening with Chrissy and Brian while they had a break away from the Fire Dept, Hospital and 3 kids!!! The couple has just shared their 5 yr wedding anniversary and wanted to treat themselves to a couple's portrait session. Needless to say.....the sun was competing for what was hotter: the heat or their romance??? There were soo many images that I couldn't bear to leave out, so this blog contains a bit more images than I would of liked, but who's counting, right??

Thank you for a wonderful portrait session!!

Congratulations to you both and wishing you many more years of happiness :+)

Summer Days with the Mize Family

I've had the pleasure of photographing the Craig/Mize Family at the Cocoa Beach Pier this past July. Their family portrait session was a continuation from May with the other side of the family that was visiting from out of town. This was my second opportunity working with Judy and Jim whom reside in Brevard County. Jim's daughter Lisa, along with her daughter, Sierra had traveled out of state for holiday and asked me if I would have the pleasure of photographing their family. Sierra, the brown eyed beauty loves to surf and a surfer near by let us borrow his surfboard for a few snapshots; in addition to her spunky personality, she loves to pose for the camera....and might I add....she did a phenomenal job! Thank you once again to the Craig & Mize family for a wonderful family portrait session :+)

Katy & Ryan's Engagement Session

I've had the pleasure of making a trip back to my home town of St Lucie in late June to shoot Katy and Ryan's engagement pics. Katy, whom I've had the pleasure of watching grow up into a beautiful woman from childhood has hired me for her May 2011 wedding in Jensen Beach. What a day it was for all.....we starting shooting at 7 am and ended some time around 12 pm.....and the heat was brutal!!! We made pit stops along the way to take a 5 minute nap in local lounge chairs that we spotted, the 2 made sure the sun kept out with an umbrella and last but not least.....we ALL SCREAMED FOR ICE CREAM!! Air conditioner was in our sight :+) I had an amazing time with Katy and Ryan - thank you both for a fun morning!

Sneak Preview of July's 2 Day Bride/Groom Shoot

July has been a busy month.....and its not even over yet! So, what have I been doing that's been keeping me away from posting images on my blog??? I've been wanting to take on a project.....yes, I can't keep my fingers away from the shutter button!!! I've had the opportunity to partake in a 2 day bride/groom photo session in my home town of St Lucie with Lauren & Manny who have been married for a few years. I'm still editing their session which could take a long time considering it was 2 days that I spent with them. All in all, I wanted to share with you all just a few pics that I was able to put together in a rush. I can't wait to finish!!

Busy, Busy, Busy......

Hello everyone! I know its been a while since I've posted any blogs. I've had my hands full with my 2 yr old running around which consumes my time since I'm a stay at home mother. I been asked to shoot for Space Coast Living Magazine in Brevard County which has kept me on my toes :+) I'm glad to say that I'm not behind on work but just behind on posting blogs.

Within the past 2 months, I've shot a wedding, assisted a wedding, engagement shoot and even a 2 day bride/groom session. Within the next month, I have been booked for a family, couple, 2 maternity and 1 newborn shoot. Lots of props and goodies are in store :+)

Life is keeping me busy especially with a busy month of October - one of my favorites months because its WEDDING SEASON!!!

If you have the opportunity too, become a fan of Candice Toro Photography on Facebook, I try to stay up to date with my current photography sessions.

Thank you all for being patient!!!
