je vois photography

About five weeks before my sweet friend Mandy was due, our doctor sent her to the delivery room to bring Corbie Isaac into the world.  After a week or so in the NICU, he got to head home with his extremely happy mom and dad.  I shot Mandy and Scott’s wedding a few years ago.  […]

It’s fun to spend one on one time with families that you’ve known for a long time.  I went to church with the Blacks for about 10 years.  I didn’t get to learn a LOT about them though, until this photo session.  There’s plenty of time to hear about them and go back in time […]

I love the whole Christmas season.  I find myself feeling a little sad on the actual Christmas day because I know it’s all about to be over.  But starting the day after Halloween (or whenever it is) Christmas music on the radio gives me the happy buzz of the Christmas season.  This post includes most […]

I’ve gotten waaaaaaaaay behind on personal life posts.  And as I am mostly caught-up on the blogs for my wonderful clients, I am going to try to get there with my family too. For Labor Day, my whole family heads to the lake, which you already know is my favorite place on earth.  My girls […]

Mims and I met when she was just barely a week old.  It seems like forever ago.  Especially when you see her here… about to walk, bow in hair… big girl.  She’s just as precious, just developing an adorable personality to match her adorable face.  This time she brought her super-stylish mom and dad to […]

One of my favorite clients, Rachel, sent her friend Blaire to me for infant portraits.  They are so very much sisters from another mother.  Their similarities are uncanny!  This family is so cute, as was their house.  Their newest addition, Bill Louis, is a fifth!!  He was just asleep and happy and snuggly the whole […]

A mutual friend sent Tiffany to me a few months ago.  She and her fiance Travis are marrying in West Virginia, where they’re both from.  But they wanted some engagement portraits here, to capture this phase of their relationship.  It really is a super-fun phase!  Tiffany is basically a model with her ease and talent […]

One of the perks of this photography career I seem to have gotten myself into is that I get to go meet babies right after they’re born!  It’s such a precarious time to interrupt a new mom’s budding routine.  But Laura was as relaxed as can be.  I know her from our church, but hadn’t […]

Goodness gracious I thought I’d never get sweet Lauren’s wedding posted!  It was beautiful, with perfect weather and priorities perfectly straight.  SOOOOO many things were changed during the planning process, that I really think it helped Lauren and Billy focus on what the point was… getting married.  I was awfully glad that the actual wedding […]

It’s no secret that we Stegall women love to throw a party.  Hagen and I in particular can get a little silly about a theme.  And, true to form, we celebrated our little friend McKenzie with Hello Kitty everywhere.  Hagen did an awesome job sticking with the traditional Hello Kitty colors and even learned to […]

For the second time this year I got to visit with some members of a family I love!  This arm of the Nolen family was here from California for Thanksgiving and I got to have one of their precious hours here in the south!  This little girlie-q is too precious!

My best friend and I have been trying to get her family together for a photo session for TWO YEARS!!  The last time we did one, little man wasn’t even here yet.  I’m so glad we finally got it together, since it also meant I got to play with them!  Aren’t they a pretty fam? 

I have gotten to know this adorable family over the last year and a half or so.  When we first started getting to know each other, Charlotte was 6-months old.  I have photographed them two or three times since then and each time I am sad when it’s over.  I could talk to Rachel for […]

I know I say I love all my weddings and brides, and I really do.  I passionately love people and honestly get excited for their big moments.  But, I really love this bride.  Kristin is more precious than I could describe in words.  She listens so well and lets you know her in an honest […]

This is a special post.  This sweet friend and I have walked through some hard things together.  We met when she was engaged and I was going through infertility.  Life happened, both happy and hard and even when I didn’t see her often, she was always there for support.  She’s brilliant, confident, beautiful, humble, capable […]
