Amy Rocks the Dress!

Have you ever wondered what to do with those prom dresses you wore once and have been hanging in your closet ever since? The Rock/Trash the Dress sessions are not just for wedding gowns anymore! Amy & I had a BLAST roaming around and playing in her dresses. It was our goal from the get-go to make it to the carnival at the mall for a few pictures, but wanted to get a little dirty before that. Between hay, mud, the pool, and the carnival-I am beyond excited with the way these pictures turned out! I have had the hardest time picking a few to preview. Instead of just slapping some pictures up here, I figured a slideshow would better show off this amazing Rock the Dress session!

If you have a dress you want to rock, give me a call! I promise you will never forget or regret it!
Don't forget to leave comments at the end of the post and let me know what you think! Enjoy!!





PS: No dresses were harmed in the making of this photo session! They will all be cleaned and donated for other senior girls to wear to their proms. See, I whole-heartedly believe in giving back to the community as much as possible-even if you have a little fun in the process!

New Goodies!

If you have recently had a session or you just know me well enough, you know that I have been wanting to seriously throw my computer out the window, against a wall, in the pool, or anywhere else that would allow me to get some frustration out! Instead of breaking what was my lifeline, I kept trucking on with it, silently calling it mean names. By this past weekend, I had had enough-it was time to give the computer a break. Of course, I couldn't very well go without one, so instead I price searched, bargained, told associates what they didn't know, and came home with an amazing 23 inch monitor and 750gb hard drive! {insert HUGE sigh of relief} It is a beauty, and I am tickled to use it for editing and the likes!

In the spirit of excitement and exploration, I decided to try my hand at designing my very own christmas cards. Many photographers purchase templates from others for the season, and I can honestly say I don't blame them. Creating your own is tricky, time-consuming, and takes a LOT of creativity. Anyways, I made a few and am pretty proud of them. I think I might try again another day too! The pictures I used are some of my old favorites. If you want to schedule your Holiday Card sessions, I am booking up! Schedule today :-)

Enjoy my attempt at being digitally creative.

BUMP ALERT!

Baby Bump that is!! The holiday spirit continues in this post, because baby Caroline is due Christmas day! This little girl is growing with the quickness, and I was lucky enough to capture a few moments with her and her parents this weekend. I have to brag a bit on sweet baby Caroline for a minute! I had Mommy lay down for a bit and I put a pair of shoes on her belly. The instant I laid down on the ground to start shooting, Caroline started kicking those shoes! It was as if she was telling us she didn't want to wear them. I kid you not, the girl is going to be a soccer star or something, with the way she was kicking in there. I hope you enjoy these previews as much as I enjoyed watching Caroline's soccer match!

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas....

well...not quite in these pictures, but it's time to start planning! I am excited to start showing off the holiday card designs I am offering this year. Keep checking back (all you blog stalkers out there) to see a sample of cards as I continue to post pictures from sessions. If you see something you like, let's get together and do a Holiday Session!

While showing off some holiday cards, I also want to introduce you to the Holton Family. I had the pleasure of spending some time with them out at their lake house this weekend, as they celebrated the oldest son's 40th birthday and grieved the loss of UGA's football game. This family is spread across the southeast and don't get to see each other often enough, so it was a perfect occasion to get some family pictures. If you can't tell already, they are very much Georgia Bulldog fans! Enjoy this sneak peak and holiday card preview!

Meet James!

James is a senior at Baldwin High this year, and is also one of my swimmers! Instead of the same old stuffy senior portraits, James wanted something a little more his style. We wandered around a funky warehouse to find some different backdrops and I am pretty pleased with the way things turned out. We also did some formal portraits, but instead of showing you the traditional, obligatory headshots, I thought I would show-off something more we can do with your formals.

Time is running out to get your senior portraits done before your school's deadline, so book your session now! Mini-sessions are also available.

Enjoy the preview!
