Amy emailed me to do some family portraits of her little family after seeing Elizabeth and Walt’s engagement portraits. We scheduled a session quickly before her sweet little boy got past his 2nd birthday unphotographed. AND before the little baby in her belly made a maternity session more appropriate! Now, you should know that I’m […]

Most people would love to relive the glory days of college. I enjoyed college, but my glory days were high school. I loved it. And in nearly every memory of those wonderful days was my friend Mary. We were 2 of only a handful of girls that weren’t on the “dance team” so we spent […]

Not being Catholic myself, I have been to a few weddings at Catholic churches, but never anything else. My very dear friend Erin’s son recently received his First Communion and I was invited! I’m always a little nervous about doing the wrong thing at these very structured and ritualistic services, so I didn’t take TOO […]

Well, it happened. Sweet little Charlotte turned one year old! I feel like I was JUST taking her six month portraits, and now she’s all old. Even the difference from her 9-month portrait session to now was amazing to me. I was so excited to get to be at her first birthday party. As I […]

Then came all kinds of commitments and activities for her senior year, our church, general life stuff. And so finally this past weekend we got it together! Sherrill was one of the sweetest people to me when […]

This morning started early. It’s easier to forget the hour, though, on a gorgeous day with beautiful and photogenic people! It also helps when they’re fun to talk to and wander around with. Ginny and I started emailing quite a while back about taking some pictures of her family. Our schedules finally worked out for […]

This week has had so much sadness. It started out so beautifully though- the hope that Easter promises and a gorgeous day to celebrate. We enjoyed the morning at our church and the afternoon at my parents house. The Easter Bunny came…twice! My mom made this beautiful dress for Pierce. I don’t know if you […]

Do you remember the sweet Hogue family from last year? I love this family. The children are just beautiful and well behaved. And the parents are just a joy. Good listeners, gentle spirits, selfless givers. (and humble. I’m sure they don’t think they’re any of those things.) It was such fun to spend a very […]

Ok, ok, it wasn’t technically Spring when I got to play with Charlotte again. But it sure did look and feel like it! Everything at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens was in bloom and the sun was shining bright. I think I was even wearing flip-flops! Remember Charlotte’s 6-month portraits? Well, she’s already 9 months…10, actually. […]

You met Cooper a few weeks ago as he smashed his 1st birthday cake! We had the family join us for this next session, to capture this fleeting moment in the Campbell’s life. I’ve watched the Campbell kids from a distance for years, but never seen them play with just each other for any length […]

Do you feel like you’re part of little Abigail’s life? We’ve watched her grow over the last 6 months. But I have sad news- it’s coming to an end. Her little family is leaving us for New Mexico in less than 2 weeks. They’re so excited and ready, but I am just a little sad […]

Were you hoping for a post about spring? This warm weather sure does have it on the brain! But no, this post is about an adorable baby girl. I got to meet sweet Bailey and her family today. She is a little 6-month-old bundle of snuggles. Six-month-olds are a little tricky because they’re not really […]

The sweet Stephens Fam! You’ve already heard my opinion on their adorable baby girl and what a lovely couple they are. I’m so enjoying getting to know Kate better through church and these photography sessions! The purpose of this session was just to get a family picture. YES it’s at Christmas, but it’s not for […]

Remember that sweet baby that was dunked all the way under water a few weeks ago? Well, meet another one. BUT, her baptism was nearly a year ago and she’s survived and thrived! Sweet EC is the daughter of one of my dearest friends from high school. Sadly we’re not as in touch as we’d […]
