LanierStar Photography Blog | Amelia Island, Jacksonville, St. Augustine, FL wedding & portrait photographers bio picture

Love. Laughs. Photographs.

Hello! I am Kristen Morgan- a girl in her 30's (when did that happen?!?) and a laugh enthusiast who's world revolves around my "sonshine". I love things made from paper, the water, Mexican food with margaritas, flip-flop weather and iPhone-tography. I also love "real" cameras, which is where this website comes in to play. I'm the owner of LanierStar Photography and a full-time photographer based in the St. Augustine / Jacksonville, FL area.

LanierStar photographs Weddings and Portraits throughout North and Central Florida, and SE Georgia. I'm also available for travel. My personality is fun and laid back, which helps people feel comfortable around me. At the same time my years spent managing businesses ensures that your experience will be positive and professional. My photography style is candid, using photojournalism to capture you in real life. Then I combine that with artistic portraiture and an attention to details to fully capture your day.

Please scroll down to read the blog, which is updated much more frequently than the websites! Primarily I use it to showcase the latest sessions, but hopefully you can get a feel for who I am, too. Feel free to click those colorful tabs in the upper left to connect with me on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram or Twitter! I'd love to start planning your portrait session or hear about your wedding, so use the Contact tab up top, call 904.639.5960, or email me at info@lanierstar.com.

O, what a beautiful baby! | Jacksonville, FL baby photographer

05.18.09 Posted in babies 27 comments

It’s been months since I had the pleasure of sharing a baby on the blog! Weddings have been monopolizing my time. Well, here is a wonderful 6 month old baby girl to get us back into the swing of things- O and her sweet momma, Jamee. O is a beautiful baby, taking after her gorgeous mother. Isn’t this photo just pure sweetness??!

She recently discovered her feet, so she was playing with them a lot. Here she is trying them out-

Look at those chunky baby legs! And if that photo didn’t make you smile then this one MUST!

Here she is holding hands (and feet!) with her momma-

6 months is a great time for pictures because they are are really starting to show their personalities and are usually sitting up.

10 little toes… don’t you just want to kiss them?

Big thanks to you two girls for having me over! I hope you had a great first Mother’s Day!

And, to my blog readers… keep your eyes peeled for more baby goodness coming soon! :)
