You know how you just click with some people right away?  This is how it started with Elizabeth.  The first time we talked about her wedding on the phone was just FUN.  And who has fun on the phone the first time you talk?  I don’t like the phone even when I know the person […]

I had the most wonderful morning when I got to go meet Rivers.  It started out rocky for his mom, my friend, Jess.  But I think the photo shoot MAY have improved their day.  He was so perfectly sweet.  He was two weeks old and they had a rough night before I came, but you […]

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 […]

I’m headed to the beach!  Because of this, I will not meet my self-imposed blog post quota this week.  Since I know it is what gets you through the week, I wanted you to see a little glimpse of what you have to look forward to upon my return.  Maybe someday I’ll catch up!!

Cooper turned one!  It was actually a few months ago, but as things usually go for most of us, it took a minute to get schedules together.  Cooper is the baby of 3 children, but only for a second.  His mom will have baby #4 this summer.  So, we’re celebrating this baby while he’s still […]

It’s the Lazenby hour here on the blog!  But this time it’s not about Lacy and Brent’s wedding, it’s about the sweet younger sister.  Lara. Like I mentioned before, the Lazenbys and the Stegalls (my family) have been friends for decades.  But I haven’t seen Lara since she was a child.  In fact, I introduced […]

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 […]

It’s a darn good thing that the client I photograph most is irresistibly adorable.  Abigail turned 6-months-old at the end of December, and with holidays and travel and all the goings on, we finally got her 6 month portraits done in her 7th month.  What’s hard about photographing babies, is that they get fussy and […]

My newest, littlest angel is already 6 months old.  Of course, I did some portraits.  Oh MY- Those big big big blue eyes.  What fun we’re having! This was the week of the BCS National Championship, so I’m pretty sure she’s saying, “We’re #1, HEY, second to none!”  War Eagle!She was also baptized last Sunday.  […]

Prepare yourself.  This post is about a middle schooler.  I fear middle schoolers a little.  They’re generally so uncomfortable and make me uncomfortable.  I’m not sure what to talk to them about or even how to respond to what they say to me.  I think it’s the hardest age.  I have great respect for those […]

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 […]

Mandy and Scott were married the weekend following Thanksgiving and the Iron Bowl.  It was a big week!  But sweet Mandy was a DREAM bride and client and I was so so so honored and excited to be there. Both the wedding and reception were at Shades Valley Community Church (at the old Homewood ice […]

This adorable duo was so much fun!  I am quite happy to say that we’re related.  Peter’s cousin is their mom and she contacted me to do their Christmas pictures plus some general portraits.  I was excited because she is delightful and we never get to see them.  This was from the same weekend that […]

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 […]
