Meet Peyton and Pres… they are one of my adorable and fun June couples. They both grew up in Dothan, but didn’t know each other! What are the chances? They both ended up at Samford, met, ran into each other again, and then finally got together. He is just finishing seminary/Divinity School (I don’t know […]

I’m not going to apologize for being behind on blogging or go on and on about how busy I am. Nope. I’m just going to give you a little taste of some things I’ve been working on, so you can look forward to the full posts to come!

I have always kept my personal blog separate from this blog. My personal blog is full of incredibly boring (not to me) details about my beautiful 2-year-old daughter and the adventures we take with her. I do take a lot of pictures on these adventures and during everyday living. At the suggestion of my friend […]

This was such a fun session. Possibly one of my favorites, ever. I was nervous going in. These boys were 5 weeks old, which seems a hard age to photograph. They’re not the little brand-new wads of babies that you can place and position however you like. Yet, they’re not old enough that they’re sitting […]

Earlier this year, I had a chance to go visit the Equines Assisting Special Individuals therapeutic riding program in Walker County, AL. It was started by a wonderful woman named Kim Hall, who “dreamed of a place where abused or neglected children, a child who needs special assistance could experience unconditional love and acceptance.” Some […]

I had fun with this brother and sisters and bro-in-law in December. They called to get Christmas photos for their mom as a surprise. And, although there was some concern that she was onto them when they all left looking so dapper, the surprise was a success!! She, and I, were thrilled with the results. […]

This post is from a shoot in December for my friend Aynsley and her little girl. I hadn’t looked at them in so long that I was so excited to see, again, how some of them turned out! Aynsley’s sweet brother joined us on this very cold day and won uncle of the year award. […]

My long-ago friends Meg and Basheer asked me to take pictures of her extended family as a gift for her grandmother for Christmas. We got lots of LOTS of people that are wonderful for her grandmother and captured much personality and laughs! But my favorites were of Meg and Basheer’s little boy. They are a […]

This family is a delight. And rather amazing. I went to preschool with her, sing on praise team with him, and basically giggle anytime their boys walk into the room. They’re too cute. They love the Lord. And if you’ve met them you know it. They’re working really hard on adopting and I know that […]

Back in November, I think, I got to play with this adorable family again. It was a joint Christmas card/4-month portrait session. I LOVE the H family and their kids are just cute and sweet and wonderful. We had a blast. And this little girl has started looking like the rest of them! You may […]

I was so honored when Mrs. H called me to do her Christmas card/children’s photos for the second year! We headed out to a park that I love and did some playing. Snapped a few photos while we were there. It’s hard to get 4 kids to smile AND look at you all at once […]

Meet Lira and David. Let me tell you (aside from the obvious) why Lira is so beautiful. She has NO idea. She wouldn’t let Liz Young or me take a single picture until she was all the way ready, and even then I’m not sure she was enthused. Until she saw David… or maybe I […]

Kate and Brett were married at a church I love dearly, Altadena Valley Presbyterian Church, on a dreary day in September. Amelia Strauss and I COULD have forgotten about the rain though, because of the joy on sweet Kate’s face. She was beautiful and happy during the preparation process, but became a different girl altogether […]

I must confess, I have had a very grumpy day. It’s that time between the crazy Christmas card/family portrait season and the start of wedding season. I really enjoy that down-time for a little while, since the busy season is so full, but now I’m ready for the photography calendar to start filling back up!!! […]

Well, like most wedding photographers, I’m finally catching up on blogging all the madness from this fall. Here is a wedding from September or October (I can’t even remember which!!!) that I got to do with Amelia Strauss. It was so gorgeous, as are the bride and groom. The ceremony was at Our Lady of […]
