Isn't that the coolest name? I LOVE it! This kiddo is destined for greatness- and stardom with a name like that, right?! What a beautiful family I had the opportunity to photograph in my South...
When Stokes' mommy and daddy walked into my studio with this little bundle of joy, I thought surely I must have written down his age incorrectly. There was no way this big guy was only 6 weeks...
One of the very incredible things about my job is that I get to see children grow. I get to see families grow. I get to capture and document all of these changes for families to forever keep...

OK, so to make this clear "I" do not think Ella is a diva....those are her mommy's words! In her cute southern accent, she told me "I have a diva on my hands, Andi". But I guess when you think...
There is definitely something in the water...or a full moon....because it seems like 90% of all my clients have recently given birth (OK...so I am exaggerating...but you get my point! ha!) Meet...
I love when clients decorate their home with artwork created in their portrait sessions. My philosophy is- you are going to decorate you home and pay for artwork anyway...so it should something...
That's what this portrait session was made of! Ava's 6 month portrait session was in my studio, so her mommy decided to take her one year session on location. We started early- because after...

This has to be one of the funniest things I have ever seen! One of my clients emailed me this YouTube link and I just had to share. I have no idea who this couple is, or where the wedding was, but...
Jen never had a bridal session. She and Charlie have been married for 8 years now...and let's face it- every girl wants a bridal photgraphy session. Or a Trash the Dress session. Whatever you...
Laurie had a vision. For her wedding she wanted to go for a vintage/glam look with an edge, red lips, and of course...a field! Gary was such a trouper! Here are some of my faves! Enjoy your...
It's the latest craze in wedding (actually post wedding) photography- and it is a blast! Face it-after the wedding, the dress gets all boxed up (or in my case...shoved in a dress bag, with all it's...
