coming soon...

in about 4 weeks baby boy will be here. this will be E's and L's first baby. what an exciting time for a new family to be! i was honored when E asked me if i would take some maternity photos for them since they are from out of town. they were only going to be here for a short time to celebrate baby boy and have a shower with family and friends. their time here was short but i was glad they spent some of it with me.

greeneville is great! where else to do you find an awesome barn right behind the Sonic. the sun was just starting to set so we got to use some really wonderful sunlight too.





beautiful momma to be!

E and L, i hope you love your photos. thanks again for allowing me to capture this special time for you guys. congratulations and i can't wait to hear when baby boy arrives.

zachary is TWO

do you remember this handsome little guy? i took zachary's pictures when he was just a year old and now he is a big two year old. he was pretty shy with me again but just as cute as can be. you can see his one year old photos here.
i met zachary and his momma at their house. i love taking photos at a place that has meaning to the family. there is so much more to remember than just a cute portrait with a grayed out background. i loved the steps and railing leading up to their front door, the fall leaves in the yard and how he looked playing in the front yard. his mommy told me that grandma and grandpa live in the same neighborhood and they take walks together often. i hope when they look at these pictures they will think of all those lovely things.




zachary has a pretty cool swing set and lots of fun toys in the backyard so we played back there for a little while too.
he is very proud of his "cycle".
what little two year old boy doesnt love thomas the train?
a little smile at the end for me. Lauren, thanks so much for asking me to take zachary's photos again. it was so nice to walk into your house and see his previous pictures on the wall. made my day :) i hope you love these ones just as much.

baby summer

meet summer. this sweet little thing is just 4 weeks old and as precious as can be. sure makes me miss having a newborn around. i just LOVE them.

summers momma, jessica, was our first babysitter besides family members. in fact garrets diaper was the first one she ever changed, and now she is changing her own little baby diapers. a few years ago jessica even rented our garage apartment. the kids loved having her come over and watch them and we enjoyed having her around too. seeing her now as a mommy, i have proud feelings :) she is doing such a great job taking care of and loving on little summer.

you are doing great jess. keep up the good work. we love ya! come by anytime so i can kiss that baby again.

brewer family

how did i get to lucky to do three photo shoots this week? on monday i took pictures for the Brewer Family. i also met shannon through MOPS. her and her husband, ken, have three beautiful, funny, smart, sweet girls. the girls ages are almost exactly the same as our first three. in fact raelyn and their middle child, kyndall were in the same preschool class together for a year.

i hope the pictures show how much this family loves each other. they were physically close to each other the whole time, i just loved it. they laughed like crazy, were silly and goofy, we even had a little bloody lip, they were having so much fun :) who said girls dont know how to rough house?
ellah is 3 about to turn 4 just like our brenna. i love this shot where she was just a little shy and felt secure velcroed to her daddy's leg.
these sisters are so sweet together and sure know how to have fun with one another.
love this one above! kyndall, sydney and ellah.

love this one of sydney and her daddy... hope this will be one she will treasure when she gets older.
miss kyndall is quite the ham. she made me laugh then entire time.
sydney is garrets age and in the third grade. she is a smart cookie and so sweet.

time to dance
