Drum roll please, its my BFF.  That crazy girl that used to run the halls, stay up until the middle of the night talking to me and was always there for me… wait she STILL DOES ALL THAT. 

I love photographing her family, not ONLY b/c they are insanely cute and not ONLY b/c I love them but they make my job easy.  And well its so much fun to pass on your talents to someone you love.  : ) Here they are in all their fabulousness… enjoy!

I’m a planner.  I like to plan things.  I like to plan for sessions, I like to plan birthdays, I like to plan vacations.  I like to make lists.  I REALLY REALLY like crossing things OFF my list.  I like the KNOWN.  I like having a plan and knowing what path our life will travel on.  So when I started this business, I had a 5 year plan for Whitehill Photography.  So far, things were going great along that plan and were moving even a bit faster than I planned.  I prided myself on what I had accomplished as a NEW photographer here in Murfreesboro.  I prided myself on every gorgeous smile, every ray of sunshine, and each and every home that had my portraits hanging in it.  I never would have imagined that in such a short time, I would have been voted Best of Parenting 2010, Favorite Children’s Photography.  I never would have BELIEVED that I would have been voted Rutherford County Ruthie’s, Best Photographer 2010.  I was in awe and amazed by the path that God was leading me on.

Then sometimes things change.

And then sometimes things change ALOT.

As of June 2011, Whitehill Photography will no longer be located in Murfreesboro, TN.

Its a simple matter really.  My husband’s job is moving.  And where he goes, I surely will follow.  As of right now, we don’t know the full details of WHERE we’ll be moving.  It could be as simple as a short move northwest – to Nashville.  It could be as far as moving states away.  But what I do know is, our time here in Murfreesboro has come to an end. In a few weeks we will know the full details and I’ll be sure to keep my fans and clients in the “know”.  If we are moving to Nashville, then I can certainly still have sessions with my clients here in Murfreesboro!

So what does this mean?  Well I have an email inbox full of requests for Spring, Summer and Fall sessions.  As it stands, I only have 2 months to try to fit everyone in and with full sessions and ordering prints, I just don’t see how I can manage (especially considering how much rain we usually get in the spring)  So for the first and probably only time, Whitehill Photography is offering mini all digital sessions, at a very very affordable price.  These sessions will be 30 minutes sessions (not themed for any season, etc) of your choice and with the price of the session, you will receive a disk with all of your digital proofs and rights to reprint those images!
The sessions are only mini sessions (30 minutes).  Therefore they will not be available for Senior sessions, infant (babies under 6 months) sessions or extended family sessions.  There is just simply NOT enough time to try to attempt any of those sessions for a mini.  IF you are really wanting a session with me before Whitehill Photography moves and you would like a regular full session then I do have a small handful of full session dates available.  Please contact me quickly, however, I do believe they will go quickly!  All full sessions will be allowed a discount of $50 off the session fee.  That only applies to full sessions booked.

Below is the flier with the full details.

I had the honor of photographing a tiny, sweet little newborn on Monday.  She is absolutely gorgeous and has a gorgeous, sweet family, too!  I really enjoyed photographing her and chatting with her mommy and daddy, even if she gave us a big run for our money in the first half of the session.  This mommy booked with me in advance of having her little one and was able to let me photograph her when she was 6 days old.  For any future, potential newborn clients this is really perfect timing to capture your baby while they are still so tiny and fresh.  Way to go mom! Enjoy the sneak peek.

I couldn’t not post this one of gorgeous big sister!

That’s right, I called it… introducing Super Mom!  I think I might try to make her a cape and all!  Her beautiful family was well dressed and so sweet!  This mom can carry BOTH her TWO year old twins, while wearing amazing heels, THROUGH gravel and not falter a step.  I watched it and stood in amazement.    We had a fun night with lots of silly antics.  Sorry these are a tad bit late mom and dad! Hope you enjoy.

I met Mr H and his mom (and dad) for the first time last week.  But as we met up for our session, the clouds opened up and the rain started.  So we waited around and then finally gave up and rescheduled for this week.  Mr H is such a sweet little guy!  He loves yellow and his momma and I loved photographing him.  We met up at the Oaklands Mansion here in Murfreesboro where they trees are just starting to turn.   Enjoy!

Isn’t this just the cutest?  How many 2 year olds do you know who love to put their hands in their pockets and pose??!

Yep, I’m baaack!  Had an amazing (and exhausting) time in NYC.  I have over 600 pictures from the trip but haven’t had a chance to look at hardly any of them.  I’m back to work right away!  First up is sweet girl B.  Sweet, smart, cautious and VERY well-behaved.  This had to have been one of the easiest 2 year old sessions EVER (even if it was HOT!).   We met up in Cannonsburg here in Murfreesboro, TN to take advantage of their a)shaded porches b) fun backgrounds and great textures c) proximity to the Murfreesboro Greenway (and a little stream!).  B wasn’t exactly sure about some of the things I tried to get her to do but she loved the tractors, the train and the FLOWERS!  Momma even said she cried on the way home for me.  How sweet is that?  See… sessions with me are so fun, your kids will want to stay!!

Without further ado: here is the sneak peek!  Enjoy!
