baby ansley {8 MONTHS OLD}

Meet sweet baby Ansley! She is just the cutest thing! Even though she didn't get much of nap before our session, she was still so happy and tolerant of my changing out backdrops and hairbows and props. And meet her mommy: Annie. We work together in the Family Birth Center at St. Mary's. She's a nurse too! She's so beautiful, I talked her in to getting in front of the camera too. It's such a waste to let a beautiful person go unphotographed, lol! I just love her natural beauty. So fresh and clean feeling--like a laundry detergent commercial. Ha!



But seriously. I thoroughly enjoyed doing this session. Hope you like them!

Ty + Charann ::: 04.18.09

This wedding was lots of fun and good times. I worked with Charann in the ER (she's a nurse too) so it was all very laidback. I even got to see some old co-workers that I haven't seen in a long time! I have literally HUNDREDS of images to go through. And I haven't even gotten the files yet of the ones my friend and photographer, Trina, got! Here are a few I proofed to get a quick preview.

Charann: We'll talk later about Bridals! Enjoy!














Gettin' down on the dance floor: "Ice, ice baby...." Ha!



Pictured here with the bride & groom are Jill & Travis. They were generous in sharing their home for the ceremony and reception. Thank you! Your home is beautiful!

Ryan + Liz ::: E-Session

Oh. My. Gosh. I had SO much fun doing this session! This is my cousin Liz and her fiance, Ryan. As I mentioned in my previous post, Liz is a hair stylist. And Ryan? Well, he's a graphic designer. I cannot think of any other couple more PERFECT for each other. Creativity just runs through every vein in their bodies. And with all this being said, you KNOW I had a blast doing this session.

We went out to an old, abandoned building right on the Ohio River in Vanceburg, KY. And every single room was a photographer's paradise. Really. I was so disappointed that we ran out of daylight. I could have played there all day long! And don't you know that this couple ROCKED THIS SESSION?!!!

In a perfect world, I would have my own lofty, studio. Complete with a building like this one and my own hair and makeup artist and graphic designer! I wished I could have taken them home with me. So much fun!

Thanks guys, for letting me do this shoot for you! It's one of my faves. Enjoy!!!

GLAM!!!

So, of course, being the photographer I am, I cannot even visit family without pulling out my camera and attempting to get some pro shots too. I coerced my two aunts Cheryl & Anna, and my cousins Liz & Amber to put the makeup on and tease the hair out for some "hot mama" shots. Liz is a hair stylist and makeup artist so she did the hair and makeup. Okay, well I don't think she's really a makeup artist, but she sure could be!

Enjoy these ladies! I think you are all STUNNING!

Museum of Appalachia

We met up with my aunt & uncle at the Museum of Appalachia in Clinton, TN and had lunch. We all left together, from there, to head north to Kentucky and Ohio to visit family.
