Jessie is a fun, gorgeous girl and we had a great time Saturday night exploring the Murfreesboro Square, Oaklands Mansion and a few beautiful, overgrown fields.   Jessie is fun, sooo easy to photograph and was totally up for anything I asked.  I’m blessed and honored that she (and her mom) chose me to photograph this milestone for her.  Enjoy!

And lastly, she’s a tennis player… how much fun is this?!

So Emily and I have been talking about her senior pictures for a LONG time.  I’m happy and honored that she decided such a long time that I should be the one to do this for her.  And then we did her rep session and it went wonderfully.  And then we planned her senior session.  And it was 103 degrees outside that day.  Now, I CAN shoot during those temperatures, but honestly does ANYONE look good in 103 degree heat and 80% humidity?  No!  And I wanted Emily to look and FEEL her best for her pictures.  So we rescheduled.  And then that day came and it rained and was cloudy and gross and then stormed.  So we rescheduled.  And we were MAJORLY rewarded.  A lovely day, 87 degrees with a light wind and low humidity.  So we finally had our session.  And without further ado… here they are.  Enjoy!

So I’ve photographed my share of graduating high school seniors but Caitlin was my first graduating college senior.  She’ll be graduating from MTSU this year and I truly believe she has a bright future in front of her.  She’s GORGEOUS, articulate, so very nice, and you can tell she has a good head on her.  I think she was a little unsure of our session (mom Carol, requested the session) but I believe we ALL had a great time, by the time it was over.  Enjoy

Isn’t she gorgeous??!!

It was a hot evening and little August just wasn’t so sure he wanted to smile tonight.  Actually, he was PRETTY sure he just wanted to jump into the creek and cool off!   No matter the conditions, August is a total cutie and I think we got some definite keepers!  Enjoy.

Okay so some newborns sleep.  And some eat.  And some fuss.  And some pee on us and some poop on us.  And you NEVER know what you are going to get.   So every session is interesting and different, just watching to see what kind of baby you’ll get.

So meet Mr Luke.  Precious little guy, 2nd born son to a sweet, fun family.  His mom and I had a great time chatting while we worked.  And let’s just say that after Luke… well I have a LOT of laundry to do!!    Enjoy.

That’s right, I had the opportunity to photograph newborn twins and they were sooo sooo sweet! I was able to do some shots of them, on their own and then some of them together. I have to say, they were soo much more peaceful and content with all my positioning and moving, when they were together! The BEST part was when their hands intertwined on one of the shots, with NONE of my doing! I can’t wait to see these two grow up and how much they’ll love on each other then! Enjoy.

My beautiful rep Eva returned this evening for her senior session. Apparently, however, mother nature didn’t want to play nice. It started out a little cloudy and then cleared up perfectly but by the time we really wanted to take advantage of the beautiful sun; mean, ugly clouds came up and ruined our fun. It was a HOT HOT night and I hope that when Eva and I can finish our session its a little less sweltering! So here she is, Eva part 1! Enjoy.

I’m leaving on a jet plane…

and attending (and teaching) at an amazing workshop filled with over 20 AMAZING photographers. So, I’ll be out of the office from August 6 -August 8th!

I promise to return any emails as soon as I get back! Take care and have a fabulous weekend!

WOW.   Seriously, just wow.  We had a perfect night with perfect light.  Claire is a SWEET, fun, beautiful girl (with a beautiful mom and little sister) and they picked the perfect locations for her.  With perfect locations, amazing light and a beautiful, confident senior… I don’t think I could have gone wrong.  Photographing Claire was just so much fun for me (I think they might have noticed how much FUN I was having) and well… I’ll let the images speak for themselves.   Ready for a big sneak peek?  I hope so! Enjoy!
