Summar Family: Nashville Family Photographer

Chesley has been a huge help to me lately--assisting at the studio and 2nd shooting at weddings with me. As a matter of fact, she came to my rescue last weekend when my camera died at a wedding and she gave me hers to use. She is starting up her own photography business and has an awesome natural eye!

She needed some updated family shots and brought the whole gang to the studio this evening. It was HOT outside (the heat index was 110 today!) but she and her clan were troopers. Grant is such a typical boy and wanted to be a goofball the entire shoot (that would be her son, not her hubby). Claire was very excited to show me her big girl panties since she just recently has been using the potty. I had so much fun with them and I hope--fingers crossed--that they love these images.  We even managed to get some sweet ones of the kiddos together.  :)

Thanks for all of your help Chesley!

Lindsey: Nashville Maternity Photographer

Babies, babies everywhere! Remember my cousin Bettina's sweet newborn shoot from a couple of weeks ago (here)? Well, this her sister Lindsey and she came in today to rock out her maternity session. She is one of the cutest pregnant women ever and is due with her first baby--a girl--in 8 weeks. I am so excited for her and I can't wait to meet sweet Caroline.

Hope you love them, Lindsey! I had the best time with you today. ♥

Mena: Nashville Baby Photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting sweet Mena this afternoon. She was showing off with her rolling over talent and bubble blowing/drooling skills! Her mom brought in the cutest hats (that she made herself) and even though Mena wasn't very fond of wearing them, those shots are adorable. I may just have to hire her to make some for the studio.  ;)

Here's her preview...

Zoe: Nashville Baby Photographer

I met Zoe this morning and she was officially inducted into my happiest babies ever list. All I had to do was call her name and she would flash me this huge grin. I could have eaten her up! Ok--maybe she wasn't a huge fan of her christening gown that her grandmother made, but Mom and Dad blamed that on the fact that she didn't like wearing the bonnet. However, you have to love that sad face as well.  ;)

Hope you love your preview Leslie and Mark!

Justine and Joe: Nashville Wedding Photographer

  Justine and Joe got married  at The Timothy Demonbreun House yesterday and had the most beautiful day. They have to be one of the sweetest couples ever. Justine was glowing the entire day and just had a huge smile on her face every time she looked at Joe and vice versa.  It was so adorable. At the reception, I have never seen so many people give toasts to wish the couple well and have so many people say how they belong together. It was very endearing to witness.

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Bass! I hope you have a wonderful time on your honeymoon.

Ella: Nashville Baby Photographer

I photographed Kelly and Nate's wedding 2 years ago and was delighted to meet the newest addition to their family this morning! Miss Ella could not have been any cuter. She has the prettiest big blue eyes and she makes this great scrunched up face where it looks like something just doesn't quite smell right. Ha ha. She was so easy and I had a blast with her session.

It was so great to see you guys! Here's your preview...  :)
