Ahoy Matey
Fresh back from Canada and we are celebrating his 7th birthday!! (I’m pretty sure Canada was slipping him special growing powder, because man I think he grew a foot or two while he was gone. Plus he is so smart!) We had a year to make up for. So we had to do year seven’s […]
Above and Beyond
Going above and beyond for my clients is what I do. So if you are looking for a unique experience for your child or family, this is what I love to do. Take this family for example. They wanted to have a unique photo session for their little guys birthday session. So I looked around […]
School has Started
School is about to start. Which means so does all of the sports practice. Are your kids into all of those after school sports? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Mine wasn’t until last year. Now he is in cross-country, track, and basketball. I’m sure there would be more if they offered it. I am tired just thinking about it! […]
Searching for Something
Way, way back in 2007 or 2008, this was me. I was searching for a lot of things. Literally in this photo, I was on a cruise in South America. But I remember feeling lost because nothing was going right. We had gone through several rounds of infertility; unsuccessfully. Work was awful (I was working […]
Downtown man turns 6 months
I’m not sure how it can already be his 6 month birthday, but it is. This morning I drove out to downtown and in the heat and crazy humidity, I met Mr. J. He has grown so, so much. Now sitting up and checking things out, he is so cute! He loved his ball. And […]
Special Visit
Some of you know that I traveled to Atlanta this week to see a very special family that I haven’t seen in over 4 years. They have grown up a lot and have had a very rough year, to say the least. So I went out to check on them and of course do a […]
Sand and Surf
One of our favorite places to vacation as a family is the beach. The boys can surf and enjoy the ocean. And I can lay by the pool. We have been to so many beautiful beaches. Our latest adventure was Guana Caste, Costa Rica. It was amazing and we were literally one of 20 families […]
Morning or Night Person
Are you a morning or night person? I am a mid-day person. Ha! But for beach, I definitely prefer sunset. But you know what? There isn’t a bad time for portraits at the beach. Sunrise at the beach is just as beautiful. I rarely get people that will meet me for portraits at sunrise, but […]
First Clients
These two. I remember this session way back in 2011. Their family was one of my first clients and they were so sweet to trust me. They loved all of my suggestions of crazy mini sessions each and every year. So in 2011 when I suggested the beach, they were up to drive the 2 […]
Studio or Location
Studio or on location? A lot of my clients ask this. And it is a tricky decision. There are a lot of factors that go into it. Here is what I tell them: 1) What time of year is it? If it is 100+ degrees, I think studio is a fabulous idea. 2) Do you, […]
