Photo of the day | Southern Tennessee Wedding Photographer

I am busy editing Brandon and Kristi's wedding, but I just had to stop for a minute and share this photo of Kristi's grandfather.  I just love the emotion here.  Photos like this will be treasured much more than the posed formal portraits. 

Now back to editing!

Going large.

Making a few changes on the website today.  One was that I added that adorable new header you see above.  Yes, I know he's adorable.  He's mine. ;-)  

I also adjusted the width of the page so I could go larger with the photos.  A recent favorite of a very special family.

There will be some more changes with 2011.  I am completely booked for the rest of 2010, and I have decided to decrease the number of sessions I take on in 2011 so that I can give all my clients the creativity they deserve while giving my family they attention they deserve.  I will be posting more about that in the coming days.  Stay tuned.

Ben, Maecy and Katy | Southern Tennessee Child Photographer

Horrible.  Just horrible.  That is what I am as of late when it comes to blogging sessions.  I guess it is because I am busy, busy, editing!  I still have lots of sessions from back in the summer that I have failed to post, but I promise to try to get them on here as quickly as I can.  

This summer I met Ben, Maecy and Katy.

Three beautiful and fun kiddos!  I should also mention talented.  Ben is taking fiddle lessons and Maecy is taking guitar lessons. 

We met at The Tolley House Bed and Breakfast in historic Lynchburg for our shoot.  We had the place to ourselves, and I must say it is beautiful. 

After a clothing change, we walked down to an old barn at the edge of the property. 

I just love red barns and barefoot kiddos!

And that my friends was my afternoon with Ben, Maecy and Katy!

Rachel - Southern Tennessee Tween Photographer

Rachel requested this photo shoot.  Last fall I had a Christmas session with Rachel and her little brother and sister.  When Rachel's mom contacted she told me this was all Rachel's idea.  Rachel wanted to have her own shoot in town.  I knew it would be lots of fun! We sent Rachel's mom around the corner and we got started.

I asked Rachel to answer a few questions for me.  

Favorite color: turquoise blue

Favorite ice cream: Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie

Favorite subject in school: Grammar 

Hobbies: Basketball, Piano and Singing

And after looking at these photos is it any surprise that Rachel wants to be a movie star when she grows up?  If that doesn't work out, I think she certainly could have a future in modeling!

She has great style.

We had so much fun!  Rachel, I hope you like all your photos! We will have to do this again!
