All the Way From Huntsville....

These sweet kiddos came all the way from Huntsville for pictures with me! :)  They were some of my clients from when I lived in southern Tennessee, and mom has been wanting more pictures for a long time now.  It worked out perfectly!  We met early in the morning before the heat came up, and the light was beautiful.  Last time I saw the sweet little girl, she was only 4 months old!  Now, she's grown into a cute little toddler.  It's great to see how they change!  And her big brother is still just as cute and sweet as ever.  Thanks so much for coming all the way down to Auburn for a session!  It means a lot to me. :)  I'm so excited that I'll be in Nashville and we'll be much closer for pictures next time!  Enjoy the preview!!

Sweet Evie!

I was so excited to meet this little sweetheart! First of all, I'm in LOVE with her name. IN LOVE. "Evie" is short for "Evelyn". It's so southern and classy and beautiful. She was so sweet and fun! It was nice and cloudy the morning of our session, so it wasn't quite so stinking hot. She was easy and enjoyed all my props. Of course, 6 months old is such a fun age!!! It's one of my favorites. :) Thanks, Mom and Dad, for joining me and risking a parking ticket for some cute pictures - I appreciate your trust in capturing these sweet memories for you. Enjoy the preview!

Sweet Baby Hudson

This sweet little guy was in my cutest kid contest, and he's definitely a cutie pie! LOVED HIM! :) He was so happy the whole session. He enjoyed everything we did, and the heat didn't seem to bother him at all (lucky thing!). I love babies like that. Mom and Dad, you have a true cutie pie on your hands with this one! Thanks so much for trusting me with these memories of your little family. Enjoy the preview! :) I can't wait to show you the rest!

Oh, James!

I will say this with the kindest heart: I'm really not sure that this precious boy is as crazy about me as I am of him!! ;) He is teething, which never makes for a happy 6 month old. But, like I always do, I managed to get some great shots of the little man! I've been doing his pictures since he was 4 days old, and it's amazing to see how much my baby plan munchkins change so much from each session. He's gotten so BIG! :) I adore him to pieces, and so does everyone else that meets him. He's a doll! Thanks, Mom and Dad, for again trusting me with these memories of your first born! Enjoy! :)

Welcome to the Family, Baby #3!

This family is so special. I got to meet them when that sweet little man was just born. And now I'm so excited to meet baby #3! Sweet Haley is a precious little thing that was perfect, absolutely perfect, for her pictures. And her big brother and sister were great, too! It was hot, but all three kids endured the heat like little troopers for some very special pictures. :) I enjoyed them so much that I think they may have me talked into having a third baby!!!! ;) Mom, I will be sure to keep you posted on that!! :D Enjoy the prints, guys! You have so much to be thankful for - 3 beautiful babies is a true blessing.

Waiting For Baby E....

I adore this couple and cannot wait to meet this sweet baby! I had the joy of capturing them on their wedding day this spring, and it's so great to see a couple so in love in as many ways as these two are. They are celebrating the joy of their marriage as well as the birth of their little surprise bundle of joy! :) Kat is so very photogenic that I practically begged her to do maternity pictures just so I could photograph her again!! Enjoy the preview guys, it was so much fun! Love you both lots and cannot wait to meet sweet baby girl SOON!

Sweet Gracie!

Meet my sweet niece Gracie.  She's already 6 months old, and I can't believe how fast time flies!  It seems like just yesterday I was taking her newborn pictures.  Now she can babble and sit up.  Before we know it, she will be walking!  She's the sweetest little baby ever.  She's so laid back, and has the sweetest little smile. :)  I wish I got to see her more!  Now, she will have to come visit me in Nashville for pictures!!!  SO GLAD we got to do these at one of my favorite locations!
