Did you know I’m having a baby tomorrow? I am. A 2nd little girl at 7:45 a.m. We’re excited, crazy, tired already and not feeling like it’s real at all. So, instead of thinking through final details and packing up the last tidbits for the hospital, I’m blogging. This is beautiful Mallory. YOU can see […]

You may recall from their engagement post, that I think Peyton is GORGEOUS. Just so classically beautiful with awesome expression. Well, we did her bridal portraits yesterday in the EXTREME heat. I believe it got up to 99, at least. This series is one we did at the very end. She hasn’t touched up, or […]

I have failed at posting occasional personal entries. But here’s one for you!My daughter, aunt, grandmother, cousin and 3 second cousins (or 1st cousins-once-removed or something) all went to pick blueberries at Grabuck farms.

Peyton and Pres were married last Saturday. As the turbulent weather rolled through Birmingham, the delight that these two were feeling about beginning their lives together could not be tamed. I’m not ready for the full post yet, but as I’m editing, these 3 images are standing out to me. Simply because of the unfettered […]

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 […]

I couldn’t resist posting this quick little favorite from Jessica and Ryan’s wedding, before I get the whole post done. It was my favorite even when I took it, but it has stayed a front-runner throughout the editing process. As at most receptions, people were a little reticent to be the 1st on the dance […]

Recently I got to take little miss “C”‘s one-year-old pictures! You may remember her from this post a year ago. It was a beautiful afternoon/evening and we had so much fun laughing at this adorable baby girl. I really enjoyed it because I feel like my daughter was no longer a baby at one, but […]

I’ve exhibited such commendable will power to keep these bridal portraits to myself for the last several weeks. Jessica married Ryan on Saturday, and no one besides her mom, maid of honor, mother-in-law and I saw the dress before the big day. This includes her father! And bridesmaids! So, I would have been in really […]

This shoot was on one of the prettiest days of the year. Perfect temp, low humidity, and God arranged for cloud cover for the exact amount of time the shoot took. Perfection! I know the Etheridges through a mutual friend, but hadn’t seen them since before their baby boy “P” was born. Confession: I am […]
