je vois photography

A few weeks ago I got to go play with the cutest girls in their most beautiful yard.  I met big sis when I took pictures at Covenant Day School.  It was fun to meet the rest of the girls in the family and take pictures of this busy time in their lives!This little girl […]

I often tell the pregnant gals who call me that I’d like to take newborn portraits ASAP after the little bundle is born.  Very rarely do these gals feel ready or even remember to get that photo session scheduled within the first week or so.  I was SO impressed when Kerry got in touch with […]

That crazy photography season we call fall is here!  And I got to start out the craziness with some super good friends, the Pooles.  It was a beautiful, warm football Saturday and other than Lance’s “Geaux Tigers” on the day MY team was playing LSU, it went perfectly.  Well… except for the yellow jacket sting […]

Margaret and Taylor kept their lake wedding small.  It was an intimate day, including only those closest to them.  So it was even more of an honor to be there to photograph it.  Margaret started off the day at Hopson James Salon in Homewood and the rest of the day happened at her family’s lake […]

I’m a little sad to be sharing these one-year portraits with you since it means my scheduled sessions with Olivia are over!  It’s been such fun to watch her grow and to get to know her sweet mom.  This last session I was especially aware of how big she’s gotten.  Look at her walking and […]

When I woke up on Colleen and John’s wedding day, the weather forecast was not predicting good things.  The sky looked ominous all day.  I was thinking about the good points- it’s good luck to rain on your wedding day, the church has lots of beautiful windows, Colleen is so optimistic it’ll be fine…  But […]

There is an adorable family that goes to my church that I hadn’t gotten to know very well.  Their kids are a little older than mine, and we just hadn’t had many occasions to visit.  This summer though, they had a new baby girl and I was so excited when Silena called me to take […]

I love when a family I knew a little gets in touch with me years down the road for a child’s wedding.  When Morgan, her mom and sister and I got together months ago to discuss her wedding, we had so many things in common that we talked for a really long time- Homewood, Dawson, […]

On a beautiful Sunday in July, I got to attend Caroline and Matt’s beautiful wedding.  And take pictures.  Their ceremony was one of my very favorites.  You’ll see in a moment that they are a gorgeous couple on the outside.  But by observing their actions toward each other and seeing the details and thought that […]

Amanda and Will were married Saturday after a seven year-long relationship.  I asked Amanda about the 7 years and she said they talked about a wedding 4 years ago.  It ended in a huge fight because of a miscommunication (don’t they all?!)  Right then and there Amanda vowed not to bring it up again because […]

While I was away this month, some dear friends had their first baby.  I hate that I couldn’t rush right over to the hospital.  Luckily, Caleb was still very sleepy and tiny so I could take some precious infant portraits.  He’s adorable.  And watching Andrew and Jana with him was priceless.  What a marvelous phase […]

For three years now, not in a row, we have hosted a Summer Solstice party at our house.  Peter and I really love it, but for different reasons.  I love the decorating, of course.  Peter likes the ease of socializing at our home with most of the people we love.  Here’s a little sneak at […]

I have known some of Hadley’s family for several years, but I didn’t get to meet her until we started discussing her wedding.  She and Kris had been high school sweethearts, gone to two proms together, but lost touch after high school.  During the two weeks he was on Facebook, he and Hadley found each […]

When I was younger, my closest girl friends were always the most beautiful, most talented, most everything.  (which was not great for my self-esteem!) SO, I feel certain that Madeline would have been one of those.  I say that God left the talent dropper over her for longer than the rest of us.  She’s been […]

Surely you recognize this blued-eyed beauty by now? I’ve gotten to see Olivia for the 3-month and 6-month milestones and now we’re already at 9-months.  I think she’s getting cuter and cuter and I had so much fun with her and her mom on this gorgeous spring day.  She’s at the age where crawling is […]
