I love Chicago

2009-09-30T00:00:00.008-04:00

I had a BLAST in Chicago! Loved every moment of it, I got to see family, my new adorable cute lil niece, old & new friends, and the cherry on top....got to have the famous Deep dish pizza! That is a MUST when you go to Chicago! It is OH SO good, yet so bad....(I got in trouble from my trainer when I got back home! HA!) Well, I love Chicago it will always have a special place in my heart! Check out my cute extended family, friends and a BEAUTIFUL newly married couple! I can't wait to get back up there!

It's been a while.....

2009-08-08T01:36:00.002-04:00

I think my favorite thing to shoot these days are engagements....especially when they look this good! Aren't they just beautiful people! They were just so cute, funny and so in love! I had so much fun with their cute dogs! I hope you guys enjoy them I want to show all of them that is why I have so many on here....I loved this session!

I'm Back!!!

2009-08-06T14:47:00.002-04:00

Ok, I got back late last night from my vacation with my boys to Utah to see my family and we had a BLAST and I hate to say it I really didn't want to come back, it is so nice out there and being around family it just so much fun! Well, I had to come back and now back to life, work and reality! So I have about 50billion+ emails and a ton of voice mails I need to return, so please be patient with me! This is the weekend to catch up-HARD CORE! And I have some sessions I need to put up ASAP that I did before I left, so they are all in the works and I will get back to you soon!

I seriously cant believe it is August....WOW! School starts soon, back to a schedule routine...YAY!!!

Thanks!

Life is Good!

2009-07-27T00:55:00.008-04:00

I love my Life and it seems like everyday it gets better and better, mainly because these 2 guys are in my life! I am so blessed! I have the cutest boys in the whole wide world (sorry I am a little bias) and I am so glad I don't get to miss a moment of watching them grow up daily, and boy they are growing up too fast! They make me smile & so Happy and I look at them and think "WOW" I am just so grateful! I am just speechless sometimes, and I seriously can't believe I will have a Kindergartner in like 3 weeks! These are recent pics of them and it shows their multiple personalities (or attitudes) off, which they totally have at this young of an age! I love them so much!

FYI: The boys and I are going out of town for a week and a half to Utah to see family (YAY)!!! So, I will be out of the "office" until August 6th. I might (or might not) try to answer emails & phone calls, who knows, but please be patient with me I will get back to you soon about appointments & orders, etc! YAY, A VACATION FINALLY!!!!!!

2009-06-10T00:03:00.003-04:00

CUTE and full of girls, totally opposite of what I have to deal with daily! It was really cute when they came in and the oldest girl was just so shy, but she finally posed for me!

Thanks for coming and congrats on the new baby!

It was so much fun and thanks for having me!

Carter's daddy is a firefighter here and he want to bring some fun things for the pics! Way to be creative! He also recently turned one and he didn't really care too much for the cake, he had a few bites, but he really wanted those balloons! Well thanks for coming! And Enjoy!

Addison

2009-05-12T12:40:00.003-04:00

What a cute little girl! She was just great! She feel asleep here and there, but not too much, but she was just a calm little thing! But we did get a few sleepy shots that her mom wanted! Her mom and older brother brought her to me and I just loved her brother. He was dang cute and his hair was AWESOME, but it wasn't his picture day today, just along for the ride! Addison was just perfect! Thanks!

CUTIE!

2009-05-12T12:36:00.003-04:00

My BOYS!

2009-05-11T14:48:00.003-04:00

I have the best boys EVER! Well, they do have their moments.....like when I want to get a good Mother's Day picture for the family....but it didn't quit work out too well and went down like this....

It was right before bed time and I had this bright idea to try to take their pics! So, I bribed and begged and John did GREAT! Blake on the other hand, I found out he is not at that stage yet...so it didn't work so good for him-he was just getting more and more upset that I wouldn't open the candy. And I was trying to do it all by myself on top of that, which was hard to do! So here are the end results! I guess I am happy, they are funny....Maybe next time or when I get a helper to help me out they will be better!!

I hope everyone had a GREAT Mother's Day! I sure did, I had a great day with my boys! I just LOVE them to death!

Scott + Jenny

2009-05-09T17:43:00.003-04:00

We went down to Atlanta to do these engagements and it was so much fun! There are a TON of cool places down there! We went to the Botanical Gardens, railroad tracks, some scary part of town with graffiti, and Centennial Park. It was a perfect day and great weather! I hope you like them all and the water ones where the kids are chasing after you guys! Enjoy and next stop is the wedding!

Brady

2009-05-08T00:20:00.004-04:00

How handsome is he? He is stinkin handsome and he can totally be a GAP baby model! I LOVE his eyes they are just so dreamy! Brady has some awesome parents, I actually went to high school with both of them! It's so neat to see old friends and their new families! He is such a big Mama's boy which is so cute! I am so in love with all of his pics! Hope you like them!

Blakely

2009-05-07T14:41:00.003-04:00

Ok, her mom has been emailing and harassing me just about everyday this week about when the pictures were going to be up and finally I gave in....here are some pics for you! You know I am just kidding about the harassing-you are too sweet! Blakely is going to marry my little Blake! LOL! Really, she has grown up too fast! I have been taking her pics for a LONG time and I just love watching her grow up! I hope you like them, outside was fun and new for you!

Jack & Eli

Will

2009-05-04T22:35:00.003-04:00

Isn't he just a handsome guy! I love his name "William Turner"-like the Pirates of the Caribbean. LOL! I think Will looks like his oldest sister Emma, but in that picture of his hand on his chin...."he's thinking"....that just shows he will be just like his dad! He has a ton of hair too...it's crazy! This family is dear to my heart and have been great friends to my family! I hope you enjoy them and thanks for coming over! Congrats!

Crazy FUN!

2009-05-03T21:23:00.002-04:00

John had a few friends over this weekend....7 boys, but 6 stayed! It went actually well and wasnt too bad! He had a blast and was so Happy to have his friends over! We also took a 2 hour nap today to recover from the late night(10pm-finally went to sleep) and early wake up(6:30am)! It was fun and they all did so good!!

Micah

2009-04-30T23:40:00.002-04:00

He is a handsome boy! I LOVE his baby blues and he was just a happy baby! I love happy babies and I think 6 months is my FAVORITE to "shoot" out of everything I do! Isn't his swimming trunks so cute and those sunglasses! He is just a handsome guy and has some awesome parents!!

Madison

Noah

2009-04-30T08:43:00.002-04:00

What a cute little guy! He was running EVERYWHERE and we had to chase him. He also would crack a handful of smiles, but I got some cute ones of him! I was excited to go to this families home to take pics, because they live out in the "country" part of Gainesville. They have a lot of land and pretty scenery! They also had these cute puppies and a tire swing-2 pictures posted in an earlier post! It was perfect! Thanks for letting me come over and I hope you like them!

Sofia, Sebestian & Gavin

2009-04-28T11:04:00.004-04:00

So sorry about not posting on here lately.....I am finally catching up from a fun weekend of hanging out with my 2 boys and not really working at all! It was much needed and I rarely have a weekend off, so I did it before wedding season hits...in MAY!!

These are my cousin kids and so dang cute!

Jaxson

2009-04-23T15:18:00.004-04:00

OMG! Too CUTE! Jaxson was just a flirt and I LOVE his blue eyes! He was just so smiley and his dad would just shake his baseball cap and he would just grin from ear to ear....the simplest things in life! I love it! Also his creative parents came with some cute items too, they had this cute idea to do like the Tom Cruise "Risky Business." The white button up, sunglasses, and underwear, but in his case it was a diaper! Isn't it too CUTE! I love it! I hope you like them and they are just about done and thanks for coming!

Awwww...

2009-04-23T00:04:00.004-04:00

Just wanted to share these from a session I have recently...it was way to cute not to share! More to come!

Mary Lynn

2009-04-22T22:39:00.002-04:00

What a darling little girl! Mary Lynn is so cute! She was a HAM in front of the camera. She didn't care for my lights flashing. She would close her eyes or squint really hard and then open them after the flash went off-there's a cute pic below of her doing this. She was so smiley and teething! Thanks for coming!

Dallas

2009-04-22T15:33:00.005-04:00

I went to Dallas with my 2 boys a few weeks ago for Spring Break and I am finally coming around to finishing them! I took pics of my adorable niece and her 2 boyfriends in Dallas! They are cuties! And a few of my lil guys when they would allow me to take pics of them!

Cara

2009-04-21T00:26:00.004-04:00

What a Cutie-pa-totie! I just LOVE Cara Lynn! She is a doll! Love her big blue eyes and chubby cheeks! She also has an AWESOME family! I have been getting onto mom about 6 month pics, but finally they came over at 7 months, which was ok! Cara is a sweet girl! Hope you guys like them!

Brian + Cindy Wedding

2009-04-18T14:47:00.008-04:00

What a beautiful and HAPPY Wedding! I honestly think this couple was the most "smiley" couple ever! They are just so happy-I love it and loved being around it! Their wedding was just beautiful and so sweet! They saw each other before the ceremony and it was a special moment with them and their son Andrew. It was really sweet and this wedding was all about Love, Hope, and Faith! Brian was just a hilarious groom, and sang to Cindy, he cared her and others than himself that day! Cindy was the same way too, but she had that twinkle in her eye all day she is so in LOVE with her new man! I honestly could go on and on, but here are a ton of pics and I hope you enjoy them!

Herndon

2009-04-17T20:55:00.002-04:00

What a handsome guy! And babies everywhere! And more to come! Herndon is a cutie and was a good little guys but he did not sleep! His mom said she tried to keep him up all morning and he looked so tired, but I don't think he wanted to miss a thing! He also did not like being naked, and he let us know by peeing at least 5+ times...LOL!They also brought along grandma for the ride, which was fun! I really love his name which was moms maiden name, such a strong unique name! Well, hope you like them and the rest will be up soon!

Tucker Dwight

2009-04-16T21:26:00.009-04:00

Don't you have to say his name with a little southern twang, I do...not sure why! I love his name though! Ok seriously, I have not seen this many wrinkles on a baby, check out his forehead-I just LOVE it! He looks like a handsome lil man! He was a good little guy and would let me place his legs any way I wanted to. (Boys are usually hard because there is more to hide and they love to spread them...LOL!) Isn't mom gorgeous, she too is a dear friend of mine! I have 3 good friends literally in a week or so time have their babies! Hope you like them! Enjoy, oh and he gave us a smile, so cute!

I had to add this one....Blake is always trying to get into my sessions for a quick pic....excuse his sloppy just "waking" up look/hair...Oh my! Or he has a crush on Zoey, but I love his face!!

Hunter

2009-04-16T13:17:00.002-04:00

This is a dear friend of mine and I did her maternity pics and she looked so gorgeous and look at her now, so pretty! These pics were taken before my vacation and I think in March alone I had 9 babies, which I have never done that before. March was "baby" Madness Month! Hunter was a good baby, he would fall in and out of sleep. I just love his hair, and I am still deciding who he looks more like....he is a good mixture of his brothers. His 2 older brothers are so excited and in love with him! Congrats you guys and sorry so late of a post....still trying to catch up!

Jenny-Bridals

2009-04-15T12:52:00.005-04:00

Ok, so it I hard for me to get back in the swing of things after Spring Break...geez! I am so sorry! This is a session I did before I left on my vacation, and I went to Atlanta with Jenny & her mom to do her bridals! It was so much fun! I was so thrilled to be in a new area and get to know her mom....she is so FUNNY-just like Jenny! But how GORGEOUS is Jenny! I LOVE her dress! So here are a few pics and you said I could put them up here, so hopefully your man wont see them! Enjoy!

I'm Back!

2009-04-09T23:55:00.003-04:00

So I am catching up on posts, emails, orders, sessions, etc....Thanks for being patient! Enjoy these cute pic of my boys who hung out with me in Dallas! More to come soon!

What a cutie!

2009-04-09T23:46:00.003-04:00

Cannon & Janie

2009-04-02T23:08:00.002-04:00

Goodness! I have been having the CUTEST kids coming over lately! These two are just to die for! They are going to be so good looking when they get older! Cannon is just a cutie and he is all boy-loves Thomas the train! He was also a little poser....see the last photo! So cute! Janie she is just a little doll and gorgeous! They were so fun to photograph! Thanks for coming!

Claire & Taylor

2009-04-02T21:36:00.001-04:00

What cute girls and cute outfits, headbands, etc... Most of them were handmade and monogrammed and so cute! I wish I had a girl! Claire is a sassy 4 year old! She was so girly! Taylor is just a doll! She has that cute Gerber baby look! I love her smile and these girls have awesome eyes & long eyelashes! Well, I hope you like them and thanks so much for doing that AWESOME bag for my sisters baby-oh and mom is a sewer-I will have to post pics of this cool bag!! But, I cant wait to give it to her!

Rauston

2009-04-02T10:45:00.002-04:00

I just love his name, Rauston, so cute! This lil guy had some of the craziest faces! He was so funny to watch! He also gave us some smiles, how cute is that! His parents were just so sweet and mom is just gorgeous! Here are a few to hold you over! They will all be up soon!

Ava

2009-03-31T22:28:00.005-04:00

What a cutie! Ava is 3 months old and gorgeous! I love her cheeks and blue eyes! She is just a doll! She would not give us a grin or budge at all on the smiles, but she would let us do anything to her! She was such a sweet heart! Hope you like them mom!

Samuel "Tate"

2009-03-31T00:07:00.008-04:00

What a handsome lil guy and check out those awesome lips! He was wide awake and would not sleep for me, except only towards the end he finally dozed off. Tate's parents brought this awesome craddle in and it was like three genereations used. Mom's great grandma or something, which is so cool! I love things like that! Isn't he just a cute lil guy! Enjoy!

Merritt

2009-03-30T23:42:00.003-04:00

What a mama's girl! Merritt is a gorgeous spunky girl! Love her blue eyes and blonde hair! She is so sweet! What a session...she was a happy girl and has an awesome smile, but then something changed her mind half through it and she didnt want to look at the camera or she wanted to sit on mom's lap, but we tricked her!! Well, I think we got some good ones, but I am sure mom didn't think so...Enjoy!

Easter Mini Session!

2009-03-29T22:15:00.001-04:00

With a Real Bunny!

I just love him...

2009-03-28T12:18:00.002-04:00

We had a date night last night and it was so much fun-just us two!! We went to his favorite restaurant Wendy's and then saw "Monster's vs. Aliens", which was HILARIOUS! I love going on dates with my favorite little 5 year old!

Avinash & Sahil

2009-03-27T21:57:00.002-04:00

What handsome boys! WOWzers....check out their eyes! They are gorgeous young men aren't they! They were the easiest boys I have EVER photographed and this session was so quick! Avinash loves to read and is a very smart boy! He has a cool colorful bedspread and I love his color toned picture of his face on the wall. Sahil is Nintendo DS guru, he and my John John would get along great! He loves to play it and he too loves cars...his bedroom was decked out in it! They are just photogenic...thanks for having me!

Shaw

2009-03-27T12:13:00.002-04:00

What a cutie! Shaw is 3 months old and just a great little guy! His family is just so cute! It was funny there was a point where he was fussing and dad whipped out the vacuum cleaner and turned it on....and lo and behold it worked! He was quiet and feel asleep! It was so funny! This house was very neat and had some great colors and furniture in it! Shaw is a perfect lil guy! Enjoy!

Nadia & Ariana

2009-03-27T00:31:00.009-04:00

These girls were totally opposite, but they both loved their mommy & daddy! Nadia was so friendly and smiles from ear to ear during the whole session and Ariana was shy and more reserved....but we managed to squeeze some smiles out of her! I just love these girls bedrooms....it made me really want a girl....not anytime soon! They had dress up clothes, tea party stuff, and cute girly rooms! This family is just darling and was so sweet! Thanks for having me come over to your home!

Daniel & Andres

2009-03-26T22:00:00.004-04:00

What cute boys & dreamy dark brown eyes!! I took pics of little Andres when he was a baby and now he is a year old and such a cutie! Check out these handsome boys....how AWESOME is their hair! Daniel is a hardcore Cars fan and his room is decorated in Cars & what an awesome blue color on the walls! Andres has the coolest hair ever and his contagious smile, he such a ham! I love it! I did this session in Atlanta for them, along with 3 of their neighbors, it was so much fun and nice to do something different for a change!! I really enjoyed it! Thanks for setting this up and doing this!

Carter Wedding

2009-03-25T00:55:00.005-04:00

What a GORGEOUS town and area to get married at! Lee & Elizabeth are such a cute couple and full of life! They are perfect for each other! This was an all day event! Pics in the morning, getting ready, formal pics, wedding ceremony, and then reception! Fun day in Thomasville GA! It was a perfect day to get married and great weather too! It was a blast and I am so happy for you and your families! Congrats!!

(Had to put this pic in there for the grandpa...Enjoy!)

Aidan

2009-03-24T22:16:00.004-04:00

Man, I think this is the first one year old that kept me on my toes through the WHOLE session! We all were chasing him! Aidan is such a determined little running guy! He was for sure not scared of me or a new place, he would run up to my camera and get so close and stop, so I got a bunch of close ups...which are my favorites! I also love the look on his face where he is standing on the chair...Love it! His parents brought cake and balloons and I think he was the first to stand up while eating his cake and he was more interested in the balloons than the cake. But eventually he got into that yummy cake! He is such a sweetie and cutie! Hope you enjoy them mom!

Love

2009-03-23T01:22:00.002-04:00

.....more to come! I promise! But for now enjoy this one, I am off to bed!!

Senior

2009-03-22T19:31:00.006-04:00

I have been getting a few request for senior shoots, so here is a recent one-it was fun and different for me because I am use to chasing kids through a shoot! So this session was a quick one! What a handsome fellow! Enjoy!

Funny Friday!

2009-03-20T17:50:00.001-04:00

.....NEVER IN A MILLION YEAR HUN!

Caroline

2009-03-20T08:18:00.014-04:00

She is just a beautiful little girl! Everything about her is just so darling! Caroline came with her mom and aunt Katie (who I graduated with). She was skidish at first and very unsure about where she was, but when they whipped out the yogurt drops she was all about opening up! She is just a cutie and her big baby blue eyes and smile are just so contagious-it makes you want to smile! It is so funny that one of my favorite pictures is where is she looking at the book and you cant see her face, it gives that mystery at what is she really thinking about and I am sure she is or will be a book lover! Thanks for coming and I am glad you decided to do the cake....hope you like them!

Mason & Chase

2009-03-19T20:21:00.011-04:00

OMG!!! These boys are just sooooo ADORABLE! Check out Mason's AWESOME hair! WOW! I wish my boys or myself could have that kind of hair, it's perfect! They are just gorgeous boys and Mason is full of so much energy, but I LOVE his serious faces! Chase, a month old,is a chunky lil man, just look at his chubby cheeks, I love all his squish! Thanks for coming and I know you probably think the session didn't go too well, but you will be surprised! You guys have some dang handsome boys!

Sneaky lil guy!

Chloe, Cayla & EJ

2009-03-19T19:27:00.004-04:00

What a cute family and full of ENERGY & COLOR! Cute outfits, Spring is here!! These girls came early Saturday morning and they were ready for pics, posing and smiles! They are just too cute and very sassy! Chloe is the "poser" in front of the camera and Cayla is a "ham" and EJ didn't really care for the camera! It was fun and this session seemed to fly by really quick probably because these girls love to talk....so not use to that in my house, but it was really fun! Thanks for coming!

Ethan

2009-03-17T23:45:00.004-04:00

This little guy was almost a month old and I was afraid he would not sleep for me and make me work hard for my money! But he was actually a good lil guy. He was asleep and awake in many shots and would let me do what I need to do to him! He was great & so beautiful, like his MOM, love having pretty people to photogrpher!! Oh and the last baby was a "honeymoon" baby and Ethan is an "eharmony" baby...well, the couple meet on eharmony.com a while back, got married and now they have cute baby Ethan! So the commerical is correct eharmony.com "does work!" LOL! I love hearing those fun stories about the parents and how they met! What a cute family! Thanks for coming & congrats!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

2009-03-17T19:18:00.004-04:00

John was Mario at one of his buddies Super hero dress up Birthday party this weekend! So here is my easy made costume!

Evie

2009-03-16T23:42:00.012-04:00

What a sweetie and she is a "honeymoon" baby!! Yep, mom and dad are on their first year of marriage and they have the CUTEST honeymoon baby I have EVER seen!! Her name is Evangeline Grace, Evie for short, and she was such a great baby and a good lil sleeper, but didn't want to be touched or moved. She let us do so much with her and isn't she just a beautiful girl-just like her mom, WoWzers!! What a cute new family and they were just glowing with joy and so was grandma, she came too, which was fun! Well, thanks for letting me try new things with her! She is so adorable!

Lee & Elizabeth

2009-03-16T23:12:00.007-04:00

Last week, I went down to Thomasville GA for a wedding, literally 30 minutes from Flordia and out in the middle of no where, but what a neat place! This couple wanted to take some "regular" clothes shots before their wedding, and Lee's cute grandpa drove us around this neat south Georgia town! There were so many cool places to go to: a HUGE old oak tree that was held up by wires, a house with no right angles & it had a door in literally EVERY room, and the cool parks & rose gardens(even though they weren't in bloom). Lee & Elizabeth were so cute and really itching to get married that afternoon, so here are some of their pre wedding photos, and the wedding will come soon! Oh, and she had to kiss the Frog to get her Prince!

Sarah + Daniel E-session

2009-03-14T11:54:00.004-04:00

This is by far the most craziest, funniest, & goofiest couple (but so in love!) I have done a session for! And also one of my top favorite session to date! They were so crazy and willing to do anything I asked them to....with in means....LOL! I over shot this session big time and had a hard time narrowing them down, but I guess lucky for them they have a ton of pics! I also loved this session because it was in a new area and there was so much color and texture to work off of and the train was just crazy, I seriously have not been a few steps away from a moving train! It was fun! Well, I hope you LOVE them, because I do! Cant wait for your wedding which is right around the corner!!

Black Olives

2009-03-13T01:02:00.004-04:00

My kids LOVE Black olives! They could probably eat a whole can each....wonder where they get it from....

ME!!!

Funny Friday!

2009-03-12T23:21:00.001-04:00

Enjoy! He's great-watch both they aren't too long!!

Connor

2009-03-12T21:45:00.007-04:00

He is one! Man, I cant believe these kids are growing up so FAST, that only means one thing...I am getting older...ugh! Connor is such a lil Man! He is the baby in the Tonka truck, so mom loves that pic and wanted to get him to play with the truck again! So a year later we got him with it, he is so cute! He had the cutest one year old shirt on it said "HOLY SHEEP, I'm one already!" He loved his cake too, he made himself a frosting beard!! Happy Birthday lil guy! (I just love the one where he is all relaxed and laid back in that seat!-he needs a Lazy boy!)

Paisley

2009-03-11T23:28:00.005-04:00

She is 18 months! WOW time flies! She is just a doll and still hasn't changed much, well a little taller! I love her Big blue eyes, curly hair, and that contagious smile...I just love it! Paisley was a little hesitant that morning, but mom brought her big sister and her red squeaker shoes and finally smiles came out! She is so cute and I love this new old fun place we found!

Maternity

2009-03-11T16:15:00.005-04:00

This cute couple is expecting their first baby and its a girl! They are naming her Summer, such a cute name! Mom is 36 weeks in these pics and I know she is going to antsy very soon because it is getting HOT here in GA! They are so THRILLED about this baby and they are Glowing-smile from ear to ear!! It is so cute to see new parents and then they come back with the new baby and they are still Glowing but exhausted! So I cant wait to see you guys very soon and good luck!

Elli & Addi

2009-03-10T20:09:00.010-04:00

IDENTICAL TWINS! This is my 5th set of twins I have ever photographed and boy it was crazy fun!! Mom enlisted her mom to come and help and for the first 10 minutes they were so unsure of what was going on and me....so I enlisted my kids to come and help, which honestly it helped for a while-My Blakey the flirting elephant kept them entertained!! But they are so darling and had such different personalities, even though I can't tell them apart too well...I am not good at the identical twin thing! They also had the BLUEST eyes EVER! They are just gorgeous girls! Thanks for coming!

Mason, Michael & baby boy....

2009-03-09T01:52:00.010-04:00

I am back into town after a south GA wedding weekend, throwing a baby shower and everything else in between, so I am catching up on everything the next few days, so prepare for photo overload this week!

This cute family is dear friends of ours and has been for a few years now and it is also my son, John Johns best buddy-Mason who is turning 5 this week! They are also expecting baby #3 and when we all found out she was preggie we were sending 'girl vibes' to her, but lo and behold....it was a boy! But we are all soooo excited to see this lil guy come because they make some handsome boys! Isn't Kandis just a gorgeous mom-pregnancy looks good on you and that pink dress-HOT!!! Jeff-I love that Zoolander face! I can't wait to take the newborn pics really soon hopefully-crossing my fingers...before April(going out of town for the first week)! She is one of 4 friends that are due with in this month! Baby season here I come!

Out of town & Funny Friday-Early!

2009-03-05T17:01:00.012-05:00

I am going out of town until Saturday for a South GA wedding, so I will get back to you soon if you email or call me! But here is one for you Kandis....your Sneak Peek and you are next...when I get back!

Oh and here is one of a session I did yesterday of 2 twin girls....this is one of the twins and my Blakey came out to help! So cute and funny-she is waving and flirting with the cute elephant!! (He got this from nana and brings it to me so I can put it on him....he will wear it all day and he LOVES it!-Hey I got a pic of my children up for the week!!!)

And of course my Funny Friday! (Not so funny especially when I just sent out my lens through UPS!)

Kaylin

2009-03-04T15:05:00.006-05:00

Kaylin, what a cutie! When I first saw her I thought she was 3 years old, but no she is 2 and she is so TALL for her age-her parents are tall-taller than me!!! Kaylin was so shy at first and we had to get her out of the shell, but when she came out she was OUT and about! She had some energy that I just want to bottle up for myself! She would not stay in one place long enough for me to get a shot, she would run over to the spot we told her & said cheese and looked at me for 2 seconds and then she was done. She was so funny! So, we pull out the M & Ms and got her staying longer. Kaylin loved all my toys and things, she wanted to see everything! Well, thanks for coming and she is just so darling!! (Hope this is a good sneak peek for you mom!)

I am Famous.....

2009-03-03T22:20:00.013-05:00

well not really (or yet)....LOL!

My 'Bella Weddings' Guide Magazine, which is the COOLEST wedding guide magazine, contacted me about having some of my wedding picture in an article about bridesmaids gifts and fun wedding details! So, here's the article....I am totally THRILLED-technically my first wedding magazine & not the last!! I am so thankful to them for letting me have the chance to do this!

Avery

2009-03-03T11:46:00.009-05:00

I took this little girls newborn pictures last year with her whole family....3 other siblings, mom, and dad. But this time it was just her and mom that came, kind of sad because those kids were just so well behaved and funny!! Avery is such a great little girl. She didn't fuss not once and she sure loved the camera! This was also a quick session, because she was so perfect! Her mom came with some cute hats, outfits, and bows for her to wear! But her red hair is changing and fading out a little, but I am sure she will look just like her older sister, and I love her green eyes! Well, thanks for making the trek to 'Gainesvegas'! Enjoy!

Ella

2009-03-01T23:39:00.010-05:00

Ella was such a sleepy and touchy little girl! When she was asleep she was OUT and when we moved her she was screaming! She did not want to be disturbed! So I literally posed and shot a pic or 2 and had the shot, it was great!! She was also a pee/pooper, she got both of her parents good......but 90% of them usually do! Check out all her hair! She was a great newborn and the parents were fun and crazy to talk to-thanks for that great email forward!! So thanks for coming over and enjoy!

Funny Friday!

2009-02-27T13:56:00.009-05:00

I saw Madea goes Jail last week and it was HILARIOUS! I TOTALLY recommend this movie and Tyler Perry is a genius! I love all his movies! Here is a clip from his play....Enjoy!

...And Pull Tight!

2009-02-26T15:58:00.012-05:00

I have been so busy with family, business, church, life, etc....and this week I had 2 sessions canceled due to sick kiddos, so I made time to take pics and blog about my life! It has been a long time since I have written any thing about what my family has been up to lately! Well.....

John is more than half way through PreK and he loves it! I am so happy he is in there, and he has some AWESOME teachers! He can do and has learned so many things in PreK and at the end of this month he will be able to register for Kindergarten, and for some reason I am nervous! He has grown up so fast and has become a gentlemen...he has come a long way! One thing that I wanted to document was him learning to tie his shoes, he has been doing it since before Christmas, but he is a MASTER (double knot)at it now. He use to always ask for help and now he says "I don't need help, mama." Such a big boy! Teaching him to tie his shoes was hard for me, I would rather teach a child to read than tie his shoes any day! Sometimes I can hear him mumble under his breathe while he is tying his shoes...."the bunny goes around the tree and through the borrow and Pull Tight." (yes I stole it from a movie, but it works) I just love him so much!

Blake on the other hand.....he is just about 18months and acts like he is in his terrible twos already. I can't get anything done during the day and that is why I am up posting emailing at 1am. I am sitting at my computer and he is either under my feet, wanting to sit on my lap, or THROWING things at me. He sure does have an arm and wants to throw EVERYTHING...food at the dinner table, toys, anything he can get his hands on! I was trying to work one day and he was throwing toys up and down the stairs and I just let him do it because it allowed me to get what I needed to get done! I also documented the mess....He is coming out of his shell and for sure has a personality so different from John. He is still my lil cuddle bug!

Well, I need to make it a goal to take more pics of my family and my kids....I know I will regret it in the future if I don't get back in the habit of doing that, so I am going to make that a goal! I am going to try to post something about my family each week....or maybe every other week...monthly...LOL! I am just going to try to get something up more than I use to! Enjoy and I have more sessions I need to work on and post up and wedding season is starting to creep up on me very soon!! Oh and thanks for looking at my blog, even though no one comments-RUDE! LOL!

Funny Friday & out of town!

2009-02-20T13:42:00.001-05:00

I am out of town until Monday, so if you email me I will get back to you as soon as I can! Enjoy this!
