Kate, 1 year: Nashville Baby Photographer

 Kate is another graduate of our First Year program. She is on the move and wanted to do her own thing today--typical girly drama. Ha ha. You'd never know she was having meltdowns between these sweet little grins. I am so sad that I will not see her and big brother Jack as often now, but I tend to get attached to my sweet kiddo clients.  ;)

The whole family was here today, so of course we had to get in some family stuff. I hope you guys love these. Thank you for trusting me to photograph Kate (and Jack) over the past year!

Rylan, 6 months: Nashville Baby Photographer

 Rylan is a pro at his photo shoots now and was in a terrific mood for his 6 month session today! I can't believe we are already half way to his first birthday. I just love, love, love the little sled and Christmas hat/baby legs that his parents brought in today. How cute is that first image?!? This little guy has baby model written all over him.  :)

Here's a few of my favorites!

Keegan, 3 months: Nashville Baby Photographer

The ridiculously cute Keegan was back today for his 3 month session today and he has changed so much already! His hair is turning curly and this little man has the attitude down. I was trying to hard to get him to smile at me, but he wasn't having it. I have to say that I do love his serious face though.  :)

Here's his preview!

Jenn & Mike: Nashville Maternity Photographer

I shot Jenn and Mike's wedding a couple of years ago (when I was very pregnant...outside...in sweltering heat. Ha ha) and I was SO excited to hear that they are expecting a baby boy in January! When I hired Mike to paint my house a few  months ago, I told him he had to make Jenn come in for maternity pictures. She was not too crazy about the idea, but I hope after she sees these she will realize it is a FABULOUS time to document in photos. She looks beautiful!  ;)

Loved seeing you two today!! I can't wait to meet this little one.

(p.s. If anyone needs a good contractor, I will give you Mike's info)

The Lemke Family: Nashville Family Photographer

I haven't seen sweet Camille since her 1st birthday and was so excited to see how much she has grown since last year. She was like a different little girl! She wasn't so sure of me when she first came in, but by the end of the session we were great friends--I even got a hug. She was SO good and this may have been one of the easiest shoots ever.

It was wonderful to see you Chris and Meghan. I hope you love your sneak peek!!  :)

Gavyn is turning ONE: Nashville Baby Photographer

Gavyn is delicious. Seriously...I could eat her. We did a comparison shot in her dad's bass case to show how big she has gotten in a year. It's nuts! The whole family was here for the shoot--including Napoleon. He really just wanted to eat Gavyn's cake and I think those images are adorable.

Now for the cuteness...  :)

Bailey and Brody: Nashville Baby Photographer

Miss Bailey was back for her 3 month session today and is such a smiley little one! She was super duper easy and we got the sweetest shots of her. Big brother Brody will also be turning 3 this month, so we of course had to take his photos as well. He made us work a little more, but still got some great shots.

Enjoy the preview!

Wyatt is One: Nashville Baby Photographer

Another one of my sweet babies turned the big numero uno. Wyatt is one of the happiest babies ever. He has always been in a great mood when I see him and I have adored watching him grow over the past year.  He was done in record time today and I am going to miss seeing him and his parents every three months!

Hope you love these Dana and David.  :)

Kingston, 9 days: Nashville Newborn Photographer

Kingston was born 9 days ago and is pretty much perfection. He was wide awake when he arrived today for his shoot and it took a little work to get him to sleep. However, once he got there it was smooth sailing. I love, love, love the little scarf and red hat that Mom brought with her--and she also brought that great blue suitcase! I am also a little smarter after this shoot since Dad is full of useless trivia. Ha ha ha.

It was so great to meet you Crystal and Sam. Welcome to the world, Kingston!  :)

Congratulations Robert!!



Keep your eyes peeled for more giveaways soon guys.  :)













As many of you know, things have been beyond crazy around here.  I am so thankful to have such wonderful clients that pass my name along to everyone they know (and maybe get referral coupons in the mail for doing so--ha).  Not only am I smack in the middle of crazy holiday season and wrapping wedding season up, but I took on a book project. What was I thinking? Yeah, no idea.

Well, I teamed up with the awesomely talented Tricia Drake (visit her store here) to shoot images for her upcoming book "Welcoming Home Baby: The Handcrafted Way".  Tric makes the most ADORABLE hats, blankets, and baby wraps and this book gives you step-by-step instructions on how to knit them. They are just awesome (and I now have a great new collection to use on your babies)!  We've been working our tails off trying to get everything finished and we are FINALLY done. Whoo hoo! The book will be out in March and I know we are both very excited about it.

SO...in celebration of completing this huge project and to show my appreciation for how patient you all have been while I have fallen behind on getting your images to you--it's GIVEAWAY time!!

This is for current clients only:

Leave a comment on THIS blog post with your name and email address

I will randomly choose one winner on Friday, November 5 to win one set (25) of custom designed Christmas cards with the photos of your choice. Of course, they must be photos that I have taken.   ;)
