I generally like a clean, crisp, bright look to my images. When I saw these, however, they seemed to have a vintage feel so I added some texture to the background. I like how they turned out and might start applying this technique to a few images in each gallery. If you book a session and like this look, but sure to let me know!
I could go on and on about how much fun I had with this family, but I’m short on time . . . so I’ll let these images speak for themselves. These girls are sisters, and they wanted to surprise their parents with some pictures for Christmas. [So, if by some strange chance you know their parents, zip your lips!] Thanks everybody for a fun time!
[A special shout out to Kyle for being the bag boy. You did a great job! I think you should be compensated in some way for your hard work!]
This little boy is sooooo cute, and he has killer eyes! He kept me on my toes, but I love a good challenge! I couldn’t be happier with how the images turned out, and I hope his mom and dad love them as much as I do!
Now, I’m not opposed to bribery every now and then, and this bubble gum lollipop did the trick . . .
I even let him wear my sunglasses. He’s one cool cat!
Thank you, mom and dad, for giving me the opportunity to photograph your little man. I think I’m in love!
I’m short on time, but here are a couple of images of a sweet little 4 month old I photographed recently. Her parents are BIG UT fans, hence the dress. She rocks it, though! (And I’ll forgive them for being UT fans because I like them a lot!).
Here she is all fancied up in her tutu and frilly headband . . . a true princess!
This is my friend, Sarah, and her family . . . they’re not afraid to have a little fun!
This is Harvey. He’s one of the four-legged family members, and he’s a mess! I love his spunk and how he gets so excited over a good stick!
This is Zena. She’s a good girl, and she’s so pretty, too! I think she and Harvey both deserve lots of treats for being such fabulous subjects for me!
Sorry to be so short on words, but it’s late & I’m heading to bed! I’ve got a full day of editing ahead of me for tomorrow, so check back soon for new posts!
. . . that this will be my son in nine years. I know. This post isn’t about me . . . but really??? Nine years??? He’s almost nine now, so he’s halfway there. Wow. Okay, moving right along (before this over-tired, emotional mama gets nostalgic) . . .
This is Ben, and he’s really a great guy. He, like any other senior in high school, probably wasn’t completely thrilled about spending an afternoon in front of my lens. He was a good sport, though, and I don’t think it was too painful. He’s a handsome guy, and I hear that he’s pretty good at rugby. There are a lot of great images from his session, but here are a few favorites.
Ben, I wish you well as you graduate from high school. What an exciting time in your life! I am confident that God has some great things planned for you, and I look forward to hearing about them as you continue on your journey!
If this isn’t cute, then I just don’t know what is. Seriously. Look how precious this little girl is . . . are you kidding me?!?! Pinch me . . . my job just can’t be this much fun! {I may have to borrow her for a day or two.} Thank you, mom, for letting me come in and make myself at home. It was just like having a playdate (complete with a tea party)! I hope you love these as much as I do . . .
I like this family a lot & they are fellow Geckos! I get to see these handsome boys walking down the halls at my boys’ school every now-and-then. In fact the youngest one is my oldest one’s “book buddy” (which I didn’t even realize at the time of the session!). We met up on a beautiful Sunday afternoon a couple of weeks ago, and it was so great to be outdoors on such a fabulous day. As you can see, the leaves were gorgeous, and my “subjects” weren’t too shabby either! I chose this image of the four of them together to showcase on the blog because I think it’s so “them.” The youngest one being his silly self with a little hint of mischief in his eyes & the oldest one being a little too cool for all of this picture stuff (I can say that because I have one of each of those myself!).
Isn’t that dog the cutest??? He’s so tiny, too! Thanks Davis family . . . it was fun!
. . . we’ve got the spirit, how ’bout you?
I was NOT a cheerleader in high school (never could even do a cartwheel). But you can have all kinds of spirit, and this little guy was into everyone having the FALL spirit! I had a great day with him and his family at Percy Warner Park.
Here is his little sister . . . such a cutie!
And here’s the whole family . . . they’re great!
If you’re a Fido regular, you might have seen the dad in there. If you’re not a Fido regular, shame on you . . . you should be. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: BEST sweet potato fries in town – hands down!
Thanks, guys, for the opportunity to photograph your family! And HAPPY BIRTHDAY this month to the kiddos! Thanks for your patience . . . I’ll be in touch later this evening when your gallery all ready and online.
This is a great project to be a part of! For more information, go to the Help-Portrait website. Jeremy Cowart is an AMAZING photographer, and he apparently has an amazing heart to match his talent. I’m planning to get on board here in Nashville. If you’re in the area, be sure to join the Nashville group to keep up with the latest news.
