I've had the privilege of shooting some cute kiddies lately and we've been out enjoying the beautiful weather! This past week I was with the cutest little guy, Mr. Zion Kain. He's got a cool name, killer hair and THE cutest chin I think I have ever seen! Hold on to your hearts ladies!!!

Sweetness and smiles

Well, I am always thankful when I have a good session with a baby... you never really know what kind of mood you are going to get, but yesterday Mr. Preston Webb was in a great mood and it showed in our session! Check him out!

Lots of Lovesies

Brace yourselves...You may be getting ready to see one of the cutest things you have every seen! I get to photograph a lot of cute babies/kids often, but I have become very fond of one in particular over the past 7 months. Her name is Georgia Love (aka..."Lovesies") and her only fault is that her daddy is a Georgia Bulldogs Fan. We (her auntie K and I) tagged teamed her for her 6 mo photo shoot and it was non-stop laughs and fun. Here are a few of my favs.... Enjoy!


THE ONLY TIME in life when fat rolls and cellulite are cute!




Her "best friend"....the pointer finger...almost nap time when this happens!

Young Beauty

I recently had the privilege of photographing two very beautiful girls who model professionally. I swore they couldn't be a day under 20 and my jaw hit the ground when they told me they were 14 and 15! I was fighting off envy for about 2 min when I just conceded that their metabolism still runs about 1,285 while mine has quickly declined to 47...such is life. HA Apart from being stunningly beautiful, they had the sweetest hearts. Check them out and thanks for stopping by!

Test shooting

Well Hello again all! Are you figuring out what I never thought I would have to admit....I am not a great blogger. I have been nailed with work the past 3-4 weeks and have tons of things to post and can't decide where to start. I'm going to share some of my most recent favs with you. My sweet friend Kristy Belcher and I had the privilege of doing some test shooting (all for fun) last week, which we almost never get to do. We had 3 friends come into a studio, one of which was Kristy's beautiful friend Kelly (seen below) and 2 other friends came to do hair and make-up (amazing)... here's just a tiny sample of what we got!


my extremely talented friend Eli McFadden retouched the above photo... he is a great photographer as well but also has the most intriguing and beautiful artwork I think I may have ever seen...check it out on his site.


While having coffee with friends the other day, my also very talented friend Stoney Noell retouched this photo for me! Am I blessed with tons of talented friends or what?

My good friend Daniel Kirkley agreed to model for us (can't you just see why I asked him? Hello?!) Aside from his good looks though, his voice is AMAZING!! You just have to go to his page and check it out!!! Brace yourself...your ears are about to have a serious party!

Good times in Chicago!!!!

Well, it's good to be home! I just had some incredible days in Chicago! I had the privilege of shooting a wedding for another photographer with my good friend Sarah Barlow! Her gifting of photography just blows me away and she is so pure of heart and kind...you just gotta love her! :)
We went almost non-stop with fun and a tiny bit of work for the past 4 days but I wouldn't have changed a thing! I think I saw every suburb of Chicago there is and met some of the most wonderful people...(including the Barlow family which I apparently met only half of and there were over 40 of them...THAT'S RIGHT, I said only half)! Here is a shot of Sarah and I and a little slideshow Sarah hooked me up with before I left today...pretty cool and fun! Look for a few more pictures to follow from the wedding we shot...once I can get myself together from traveling! HA
Thanks for checking in! ENJOY!

Cute little people

My two favorite little people in the whole world are my niece Maggie and my nephew Sam. They both were introduced to the flash of my camera about 10 min after they were born and see it almost every time they see me now. We still have to work on the NON-CHEESY smiles and for Samuel, looking everywhere but into the camera is what he does best. I have always thought that "Auntie A" never over did it with shooting photos when I saw them but I am second guessing myself after a recent visit where I forgot my camera and Maggie began dancing and cheering "WOO-HOO!" Well... she didn't get off so easy when we took a little family vacation to the lake last week. I pulled out my bribes and got a few fun photos I thought I would share. Enjoy!
