My Life

    I have been so scared to blog about "myself" on my blog (duh.... I know that sounds crazy, because it is my blog and all...ha ha) I was afraid that it wouldn't look "Professional" and in reality I want my clients to know me on a deeper level other than "the lady with the camera" ha ha. I am human too, and I honestly want to put everything on the table and I want my clients to feel comfortable around me....especially during our session. I am such a talker the day of the session, because I want my clients to feel like I am just one of their friends taking their pictures. I have been so blessed that normally after every session I become great friends with my clients, and it's pretty dang awesome!! I truly believe I have the best and most supportive clients ever.

   Over the past several months my personal life has had so many changes, and thankfully everyone has been so understanding. It has been probably one of the biggest challenges of my life to go through this divorce, but I know GOD has huge plans for my kids and I, and this business is just a major bonus. I am able to witness LOVE everyday....whether I am shooting a couple that is completely smitten over each other during an Engagement Session, a beautiful couple who are about to say " I DO" at their Wedding, or during a Family Session when the family is so happy & perfect they are like the Brady Bunch. Love is everywhere and I refuse to be bitter or angry, and though my life isn't going as I planned....it just means that I really need to embrace the Love & Beauty that I do have around me ....which is GOD, My three amazing children, my family and friends, and my amazing clients.

     I debated on posting this .....ummmm just about all week long, but ya know- I am who I am, and I am proud of me. XoXoXoXo.....and that a whole -lotta- love!!

I chose this shot for this blog post, because these three kiddos are what keep me going each day. I am only looking towards the future, and its going to be awesome!

Brody, Lexi, and Colton- You three are my world!

Mickey & Amanda

I first met Amanda years ago when I was a Bartender at Logan's Roadhouse. We worked together for several years... I spent 6 years of my life as a bartender, and it was then when I finally realized that I wanted to pursue photography as a career....So I finally took the HUGE leap to follow my dream ; )

Enough about my life.....ha ha. I met up with Amanda & Mickey for their session, and they are so smitten over each other. They just laughed, kissed, and smiled the whole session. I am so happy for you two, and I had such a blast hanging out with you all for the day!!

Favorite Shot of the Day ; )

Love Birds

Mickey & Amanda....you two are a beautiful couple ; )

Kyra & Aubrey

Kyra is turning 4 and her lil sis Aubrey is 6 months old. These two sisters are so sweet and sassy. I just love when their mommy calls me to book a session, because I know they are going to have fabulous outfits and tons of personality to go along with it. It was super windy out the day of our session, but Kyra put her model face on, and we had so much fun! Enjoy the sneak peek ; )

I love this one ; )

So sweet....

My Favorite Shot of the Day.....love it

I told her to be Sassy.....and this is what she did. Love this kid!!

Aubrey....stuck her tongue out at me during the whole session! She is going to be sassy like her big sister ; )

Jesse

Jesse....she has big beautiful "Tennessee Hair" and to die for blue eyes.....so I knew the session was going to be fabulous! Jesse, I had such a fun session with you!
