{ A Family }

This was such a fun session! I was at home in Louisiana for the Thanksgiving holidays and I was able to schedule a shoot with an old friend. She and I were teammates on my highschool softball team. It had been FOREVER since we had seen each other, so it was so great getting to reconnect and get to meet her family. What a beautiful family they are!

I had such a fun time! The whole session was on my parent's land out in the country. The light was great and the boys had a blast exploring. Sorry, I got them a little dirty......boys will be boys though, right?

Look who is ONE!

I have no idea where the year went, but it sure went by fast! I can't believe this little man is ONE! He's already walking...fast! Mom and Dad certainly have their hands full. I have so enjoyed watching this little guy grow up this year. He was my very first "Baby's 1st Year" client and I've had such a great time being a part of each milestone.

Happy Birthday Skyler!!!

Finally!.....a little cooperation!

Why is is so hard to get your own kids to cooperate for pictures? I went out a month ago and took my annual pics of my kids + my nephews and got great shots....well, great shots of most of them I should say. My son....he didn't cooperate that day. So, today we had our own little mini shoot outside before the girls got home from school. I bribed him with, "Wanna go for a walk with me?".....he was putty in my hands after that. I am so pleased with how they turned out. We had lots of fun together walking, playing airplane on my feet and tackling each other. I LOVE my little man!

Details, details, details!

Details are crucial...at least in my world! I have just a strong a passion for the detail of my work as I do my photography itself. I truly believe that how you present your work to your client is just as important as your images. I believe and treat each one of my images as a piece of art. I remind myself of this as I shoot, edit and package. It is just one more detail that I don't want to overlook. I think it says alot about my style and passion for what I do!

Here is a little sneak peek of how my new packaging will look! So excited!!!

Fresh and New

I'm sorry it has been so long since my last posting. I've taken a few weeks to do some re-evaluating and revamping. After I returned from Amy Wenzel's fabulous workshop back in September I had so much going on in my head. It has taken me some time to get some things on paper, order new products, design a new look, etc. I think I'm getting close. :)

I definitely can say I came back inspired and full of new information about how to run a successful photography business. It was up to me to get the ball rolling and step out on a limb (a very shaky and unsteady limb) in order to start establishing my vision for my business. It has been a very hard, but beneficial 2 years. I've learned alot, and I continue to learn, but I refuse to give up! I LOVE what I do. It is my passion!
So, with all that said, I want to share with you some "new".
Below is a new product I have recently started to offer. It is an Accordian Book. It is a beautiful piece that measures 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" and can display up to 12 images. It is perfect for a travel size album that can easily fit in your purse, but it can also be displayed on a shelf or desk. I LOVE these books and have purchased some for my own personal images.

Plus, they are perfect for the holidays! Stocking stuffer anyone? Previous clients, let me know if you are interested in having one made from your recent sessions!
