Tullahoma Spring Give Away!!!!

Attention Tullahoma and surrounding areas!!!! I will be giving away a FREE Sibling Session this Spring!! That's right - F R E E !!!! You will pay no session fee AT ALL!!!!!! And you are under no obligation to buy ANYTHING!!!! I am serious! The session will include only children that are siblings - there is no limit to the amount of children and no limit on the age of the children!!! Even if your children are all grown up, bring them back together for an unforgettable portrait session! And if you have little ones, nothing could be cuter than a session just for them. You pick the location - I have a studio if you are interested, but hopefully the weather will be warm and we can get outside! Sign up today at Fancy Pants Children's Store located in downtown Tullahoma. Hurry!! Only one free session available, but I may draw for a few discounted sessions as well! Drawing will be held on April 22nd, and the winner will be notified via telephone. Please email me or call me if you have any questions about the giveaway! Good luck!! :)

Note: if you never make it downtown into Fancy Pants but still wish to sign up for the giveaway, PLEASE send me your name, phone number, and the number of kids you have via email. My email address is mswed1023@yahoo.com. I don't want anyone to miss out on this opportunity!

Just Had to Share This.... :)

I couldn't resist sharing this picture of my sweet Abygail!! This is a new backdrop that I have, and I wanted to test it out a little. Of course, Aby is the perfect little subject!!! Enjoy! :)

Fun in the New Studio!

I have been working all week trying to get my in-home studio up and running. I booted the kids out of their playroom and turned it into my studio - it's awesome!!! And there is plenty of room elsewhere for all the toys. :) To test it out, of course I turned to my most beautiful subjects - my kiddos!!! We had fun! I even managed to get a couple cute ones of Auston, who is almost impossible to photograph. I'm so excited about utilizing my new studio!! I have studio lighting, but I have to embrace natural light whenever possible. These are a result of the natural light coming in the room. SO AWESOME!!!! Enjoy the pics! :)

More New Props!!!!!

Photography is not a very profitable business, mostly because every bit of profit usually goes right back into the business!!!!! That's my downfall! :)

Here is my other new chair that I found at a thrift store while I was in Opelika (and my other big fat cat):

And another new prop - this awesome damask ottoman! Never would have caught it if it wasn't for my good friend C telling me about it. And I love it! I couldn't wait to try it out, so of course I turned to my favorite precious little subject for some test shots. I was dying to try it outside and can't wait to try it inside. It makes an awesome prop!!! Look out, upcoming newborns!!!! I can't wait to try it out on you!!! :) But I do have to admit that taking pictures of my Aby Grace is so fun!!! See for yourself:

And last but not least, a tribute to my Mya Bo. She's been suffering from some seizures lately, and we love her very much!!!! My kids adore her and she loves them just as much. I needed a new picture of her to hang up, so here it is (I said, "Treat??" That's why she is perked up so nicely):

Enjoy the pics!!! :)

Monthly Give-Away....Tullahoma Area!!!!

This is for the Tullahoma area and surrounding areas ONLY!!!!!! I am starting a monthly give-away around town to try and get the word out about me. This month, I will be giving away a FREE Maternity session!!! That's right, FREE!!!!! No session fee at all! Your only cost will be whichever prints you want to order. And you are under no obligation at all to order anything!! You can find my pricing sheet on my website under the "investment" tab. Here's how it works: the mom-to-be must be within 28 and 36 weeks pregnant. This can be your first child, second, third, fourth, whatever!!!! And your husband and other children are encouraged to join us for the session! I can shoot at the location of your choice, or you can come to my in-home studio for the session. If weather permits, we can do inside and outside shots. I will gladly give clothing suggestions. This is your chance to preserve the beauty of carrying a child - a total creative custom photography session. Call me at 931.563.7585 or email me at mswed1023@yahoo.com for full details. Hurry!! Only one of these sessions is available!!!! Watch in March for a new give-away! :)

My New Chair........

And my very fat cat Ernie! He will be 7 years old next week. :) Anyway - this is my latest find - an awesome vintage vanity/parlor chair. I picked it up for an incredible price at an antique store while I was in Opelika. AWESOME!!!!! I can't wait to use it in some future sessions! ;) I hope to use it in my upcoming newborn sessions, and I also invested in an awesome new prop for a little girl to go with it....a bright red tutu!!! I'm going to have so much fun with it!! But first, I must figure out how to all the cat hair off of it....... :)

My Cuties!!!!

While I was home visiting family and working hard, we had one day of really nice weather....as a photographer, I couldn't resist getting the camera out!! I didn't have a session scheduled for the day, so I turned to my usual suspects....my cute kiddos!!! Here are just a few that I took - enjoy!! And might I add that I can't figure out how to post just a few on here; I almost always post 10 as a preview!! Oh well!! :)
