I photographed the sweetest wedding yesterday.  Mandy put more thought into this day than any other bride I know.  Not just thought, though.  Work.  She did so very much of it herself.  I’m getting ahead of myself.  This post is just a sneak peak into their day yesterday. I love the gentle and sweet spirit […]

Do you remember John Allan and Bryant from their infant session last year?  Well, they’re nearly a year old now.  Mobile, curious and happy as can be!  I went to play with them again for a combo one-year/Christmas session and got mom AND dad in some photos this time.  They’re all as precious as ever […]

This post is an ode to two things.  One- the power of social media.  Two- a beautiful six month old named Charlotte. Rachel found me through Facebook.  All that posting and tweeting is not for naught!  We emailed a bit and picked a day.  It was a perfect day… the fall leaves were at their […]

One day last weekend, I was SURE it was going to rain all day.  It was a very good stay-at-home-in-your-pj’s kind of a day.  But I got a better treat!  Super cute red curls and a bright smile in a field.  What could be better? I met Laura Leigh through a friend many years ago.  […]

Instead of formal 3 month portraits for my baby girl,  I decided to keep my camera with me all day (more of an undertaking than I thought) and document “A Day in the Life” of Adelaide. At this point, she was still in our room.  She would end up in our bed sometime in the […]

Meet baby Rivers.  My beautiful, life-long friend Barbara asked me to come capture some sweet moments a few weeks after he was born. Mommy and baby were adorable and cuddly and so in love. It was amazing to me the difference in the type of image you get when a baby is within it’s first […]

One of the winners of the Railroad Park free photo shoot contest was really on top of things and got her shoot scheduled right away!  It was a warm, sunny, fall day at the park when I headed out with Heather and Russ.  They are in our Sunday School class and we’d gotten to know […]

A few months ago I ran into Danielle… a girl I had taught ballet to when she was in 9th grade (I think!) out at Westwood Ballet in Forestdale.  After she stopped dancing there, we lost touch.  So, as we chatted at Books a Million, she mentioned that she was engaged and I mentioned that […]

Well, let me say “and the winners are…”  There were so many comments and so many varieties of people that commented that I couldn’t do just one.  So, two of you are getting free couples sessions at Railroad Park.  They are: Erin Stephenson Heather Phillips Did you know that there’s a random number generator app?  […]

My dear best friend had her second baby while the rest of us slept on Sunday October 3- 12 days early.  Don’t worry, he was still 7 lbs, 12 oz and healthy as a horse.  Now, before you look at the pics you need to know that she is GORGEOUS.  No matter how good i […]

Meet the Greshams.  I know them through my husband, originally.  He and Emily Joy taught together at Shades Cahaba Elementary School years ago and we met at a party, both pregnant with our first babies.  Skip forward about a year to a photography class at Samford.  This adorable girl walked in and I couldn’t quite […]

For a long time now I’ve complained about the lackluster images my free, but otherwise adequate blog posted.  It bothered me that the color wasn’t quite right, that the sharpness didn’t quite come through, etc.  And since the point of the blog is to show you, the reader, what I do with my camera and […]

I am surrounded by babies!  It’s so much fun.  This is a friend’s beautiful baby girl at 8 days old.  Paxton was quite a trooper, and so was her mom 🙂 This is big sister, Madeline.  Isn’t she gorgeous?

This is my beautiful baby when she was 1.5 weeks old.  Sweet thing.And here she is at 6 weeks…

These are my friends Jeri and Dale. Jeri is the sister of one of my best friends, and you will meet no sweeter girl. She’s the perfect combo of honest/sassy and just plain old sweet. Dale has been my sanity saver so many times. It usually starts with a text like this: “Dale, my air […]
