Newborns - Like Winning the Grand Prize!

Clara Renee Acree was born on February 19th, 2009 at 1:42pm to the blessed parents Winnie & Alan Acree. She weighed in at 6lbs and 5oz and measured 19 inches. I photographed mom & dad's wedding here in Jacksonville a few years ago and now have had the tremendous blessing of creating a heartfelt portrait of their little one. Here are a few examples for you to enjoy. If you would like a portrait of your baby Shutterly Perfect Portraiture is the place to be.

Great Clients

Most people are great to work with but some just go way beyond! I couldn't wait to post this image and got on it right after Diana left from her session this morning. The reason I say all of this is because I would like to extend a very special Thank You to Diana. I have had the plane you see in the portrait for about 12 years and it was just not a pretty color. After inquiring about it Diana ask if she could take it home with her and refinish it. I couldn't say yes fast enough, and you can see the result, it's absolutely gorgeous. I am very appreciative. Do you know someone who you would like to forward this to so that they could have a quality portrait of their child? If so, do them a favor and let them know where to get a beautiful portrait of their child in Jacksonville or Orange Park. Shutterly Perfect Portraiture!

2008 Award Winner Scott Beahan

I was recently honored and awarded with the 2008 Marjorie Sharp Award for Excellence in Photographic Craftsmanship in the Northeast Florida Region. The Professional Photographers Society of North Florida (PPSNF) holds two print competitions per year and the entrant with the highest accumulative point total for the year receives the award. This means that the portraits that you invest in from Shutterly Perfect Portraiture are created with a love for the art and reflect only the finest in craftsmanship. I am humbled to be in the company of some of the finest photographers in Jacksonville who have won this award in the past.

More Family Portraits

Their quiver is not yet full! Dan & Christy have another child on the way so I wish to congratulate them on their fifth. It was one of those subtle hints dropped about their portrait for next year having another subject in it. So, I'm a little slow but eventually catch on to the clue giving and figure out what they are telling me. I couldn't be happier for them they are a wonderful family and if you look closely you will see a resemblance in them all. I'm sure that number five will not disappoint. All of their children are a happy mixture of the two of them.

Another of my Favorites

OK...So if you know me by now you know I have several "Favorite" clients and this is one of them. Doesn't it look like she will do anything I ask her to do? Well that's because she will. Her mother ask if I would come to live with them and shocked I ask why? The response was "because she will do anything you ask her to" well I was floored and responded "she isn't that compliant at home?" with the answer being not at all! How could a little girl with a face like that not be a perfect little angel all of the time? I'm not sure but I have to believe it's true. I'm just glad she will do what I ask her to do, it sure make for great portraits.

Family Portraits

A family portrait can be created for you at any time of your life that is special to you. Portraits are a great way of marking a milestone in your family's life or just recording the image of those special people you love called family. Even though we are in such a hurry being pulled here and there we should take time and make the effort to get together for a family portrait. It is something that can will be passed on for generations and records the legacy of your family.

What Really Goes On In The Studio

Do you ever wonder what really goes on in the studio? Here is a little glimpse of what happens in between the beautiful portraits that we create... a mugging! Yes sometimes I get mugged right in the middle of the shoot. I am just another toy for some kids to play with! All of the sound effects can get the children going and all the jumping doesn't seem to calm them down a bit either. Well as you can see it's really more about the fun than the portraits... at least to us kids. By the way this is not my good side, this is my outside, my good side is the INside! And yes we did create some beautiful portraits also.

More Christmas Portraits

One of my special little cutest clients with curls. Isn't she a cutie and good news! She is going to be getting a sibling within the next 7 months!

Carryl Family Portrait

Rob, Sherri, Madison, Abraham & Gracie not to mention Clarence the six foot tall nut cracker.

Rob owns Reliance Supply which is a national distributor of nut & bolts located here in Jacksonville, FL. He likes to have a professional portrait done at Christmas to mail to his clients around the USA. They are a small business and are real people just like us. Rob is always an encouragement to me and it is my pleasure to be of service to him.

Stacy Nieuwenhuis

Someone has to take your family portrait when your a photographer. This is a family portrait that I created for Stacy Nieuwenhuis of SLN studios in Green Cove Springs. Stacy is a great senior & baby photographer and a good friend.

The Cutest Naked Baby

Austin gets this years award for the cutest naked baby. The image of him on the couch with the Santa hat on is ridiculously cute. That is some kind of
present under the tree isn't it?

The Browns

Posted are a couple of family portraits from a recent session of the Brown family. They are the owners of Certified Collision on the corner of Cassatt & Astral just south of Normandy Blvd. What a busy family. I don't believe the bad economy has stopped anyone from crashing their car, this family's business hasn't seen a downturn. Maybe it because of the quality work they do. You can see the older post and look for TJ their son in his senior photos and check out the shine on that truck. They get my recommendation!

My Firstborn "Leanna"

Let me take a moment to introduce you to my three. (Artist rights I guess)



My first born "LeAnna". Although she takes after me allot in mannerisms and likes, she gets her beauty and height from her mother. LeAnna is an intelligent and beautiful girl. She has always been known for her "Breck Girl" hair. She turned 15 in late Oct and is studying to get her drivers permit. She is a tremendous blessing from the LORD to our family. Her hearts desire is to fear God and keep his commandments. She is a devoted friend and is sure about her path in life. She loves anything football and especially enjoyes watching the Gators play since Tim Tebow has joined the team. We all admire the fact that he was homeschooled and has the testamony that he loves Christ as we do. LeAnna is becoming woman right before my eyes and one day not so far in the future I will be giving her away to another man (How hard will that be!?!) Oy, the tears.

My Second Born "Joshua"

The best way to describe Joshua is the term "Full Throttle". We believe he Will probably be a Navy Seal or something like that. He has a very high tolerance to pain and if it has wheels on it he will have it moving as fast as it can go within just a few minutes. He turned thirteen in June and man is he tall! He gets his math skills from me but gets his height from his mothers side of the family. He is known for his long eyelashes and every time he gets his hair cut somewhere new the girl has to make a comment about how beautiful they are. Josh is a handsome young man and I can't wait to see him grow up to see how he turns out. We are currently training him in righteousness and trying to instill in him the value of self control so that when he starts to drive the world will be a safe place to live.

My Third Born "Rebeka"

Rebeka will be twelve this coming January. The phrase "Great Things Come In Small Packages" comes to mind when I think of her. She definitely gets her height from me! We will be short together. She is the sweetest girl, and check out those green eyes and the signature "upper lip mole". She is our "Girly-Girl". Give her some nail polish and she will be busy for hours. She is a tender young woman who is very conscious of others feelings. She puts others first and easily fits into any group. Her desire is to please the Lord and to obey his commands and it shows in her everyday life. I usually get two different good night hugs from her just because she has more than enough love to go around.
