It's Twins!

This mommy-to-be is pregnant with twins, and is doing so well with them. I know that near the end of a pregnancy you can feel bloated, and, well, unattractive. But she was both beautiful and brave. We had a lot of fun with this session, heading outdoors as well as doing some windowlight shots. I"m used to focusing on faces, but a maternity session has an entirely different focus! I normally love hands anyway, and being a maternity session, it was extra sweet. Thanks for letting me capture this precious time for you!














It's Fall Photo Season!

It's here!! Time for those Fall portrait sessions! Maybe it's just a nice time for your family to get some pictures taken. Or maybe you would like to give some as gifts to grandparents, or send out unique holiday cards. Whatever the case may be, sessions are now scheduling.

A few quick details: Sessions *must* be completed by November 15th, that includes 'rain reschedules'. This allows time for your products and cards to be ready in time for the holidays.
December is closed to family portraits - only maternity and newborns will be scheduled during that month.

BONUS: If you had a session earlier in the year, receive a $25 print/product credit at your fall session!

Since weekend availability is limited, I"ll be scheduling some weekday sessions, too, so keep that in mind when scheduling.

Not 1, but 2

As you read in a post below, train tracks were recently a big hit for some 'chick' photos. Here are a few photos from my other lovely subject that day. It was neat to see the difference in the images as the sun rose. In the shot with the train tracks here, the sun was coming up behind her and put a great glow on her hair - sweet!

Location Contest Winner!

For all of you wondering, I didn't forget about the location contest - it just took me awhile to visit the various places. And we had Sarah's 1-year birthday thrown in there, too. So, the winner is (drumroll)...........Karen Pugh and her wonderful suggestion of Sims Lake Park in Suwanee!! Thanks Karen for the fab-u-lous location spot!!

It has everything I could want - lots of open shade, trees, trails, tire swing, lots of stonework, a black picket fence (love this!), a lake, open pasture, and texture everywhere. And it's in a new geographic location for me, up in Suwanee. I've posted a few pictures below - I even had Sarah stand-in as a subject. Visit my Facebook page for more pictures (and become a fan while you're there!).
Coming soon.....holiday season news and a Model Call!

Terrific Train Tracks

These train tracks proved an exquisite location for some photos in the summer morning sun. Of course, we did have to take a break when the train went through (boy, was that LOUD!) - but we got to wave to the conductor, who surely was wondering what on earth we were doing out there. It got warm fast, but we got everything done before the sweat started pouring.
