These girls are not only beautiful, but warm, passionate and fun. Just like their great mom, whom I’ve been friends with since we were younger than they are now. I love getting to see them grow as a family. Thanks, H-ladies, for spending the afternoon with me. I hope you had a great month of birthday celebrations!

Have you heard that country song, “You’re Gonna Miss This“?  It’s a corny country radio song, but the lyrics get me every time. It doesn’t hurt that I first heard it when I was stressed out and pregnant. These reminded me of that song…

Time to get serious about babyproofing. VC is mobile!

That’s her trying to sneak up on Big Sis.

Those are lyrics from T&B’s song, and very appropriate for them indeed. These two have been through incredible challenges to get to their wedding day and they deserved to celebrate and be celebrated. I’m so proud and happy for them. And I was honored to be asked to document their day.

On a personal note, I learned a ton from my first official wedding shoot. First of all, that I LOVE doing it! Secondly, that I have a LONG way to go – but really I will probably always feel that way. I couldn’t just pick a few images to share here, so I put together some collages.

Getting ready…

Some of the details that they put much thought and effort into.

Ceremony…

For a guy who supposedly doesn’t really dance, B looked great on the dance floor…

Just a few more…

I went a little crazy with the lens flares on this shoot, but they were doing beautiful things inside my viewfinder!

These two girls gave me a glimpse of my future…both full of energy and running 90 mph in opposite directions! Here are a few of my favorites.

What is it about swings? I can’t resist them.

Little sister trying to fit into big sis’s shoes…I can relate!

Yes, I did have to look up the spelling of the title…

Anyhow, I ran up the road to Savannah recently to check out the location of a WEDDING I’ll be shooting in a few weeks! So excited about the opportunity, but I know I’ll be sweating buckets when the day comes. I keep telling myself, “It’s family. It’s going to be small and intimate.” And yet, I know it’s a once in a lifetime day for people I love and I just want to do a great job for them.

While I was there, we did a quick engagement shoot. You’ll see more of these pretty faces in a few weeks!

Some of my recent and upcoming shoots involve dogs. I love the spontaneity they provide since they couldn’t care less about the camera. On the other hand, it does add yet another element to consider as I snap away. I came away from this shoot with a handful of “almost great”  photos with thier beautiful dog. I’ll keep working on it. In the meantime, I’m happy to have gotten some good shots of the humans in this fun family.

Mom shines when she’s interacting with her baby boy.

You can just see mom’s great smile in the corner of this one.

Gotta give daddy some love, too…

And can’t forget C the dog!

Well, a little bit country and little bit rock n’ roll. Check out 11 week old Miss K’s shoes…

Naturally, after a few wardrobe changes, some of the best pictures were the naked ones…

Lastly, I just love how tiny she looks here.

Dancing, air guitar, light saber fencing, tickling and a little swinging…all in another day’s work. I love it! I had a great time with B&S while they showed me their rooms, the games they play with their amazing mom (who was dancing and swash buckling right along with them), and their insanely fun backyard.

I’ve been working on a slideshow of this shoot, but since it’s taking a little longer than I hoped, I wanted to share a couple highlights.

I don’t know if it’s because I married a great one, but there is something special about big brothers and thier baby sisters.  I’m sure they don’t love each other every moment as much as they appear to in these, but when they do…

I am working on building my portfolio, so from now through the end of April, I am offering FREE PORTRAIT SESSIONS!! I’m looking for kids of all ages, genders and ethnicities, as well as pregnant moms. Prints are not included, but you will recieve a FREE digital slideshow to share with all your friends.

Please help me spread the word! Make sure your friends mention that you referred them so I’ll know who to thank!

Admittedly, when we lived farther north, temperatures like these would have felt like a heat wave. But, now that we’ve been down south for a while, it’s way too cold to venture out. So, we’re camping out under the dining room table.

Between that and PBS shows, I’m running out of ideas…what do you do when it’s too nasty to venture out?
