Rosemary Beach 2010..

We packed up and headed out to Rosemary Beach Florida. Do to the BP oil spill in the Gulf, we did not know from day to day if the beached were going to be free of oil. I'm happy to report that the beach is amazing!! We did have a few tar balls and june grass but so thankful that we went :-) It wasn't until the very last day Charlotte finally started to "like" the sand.. Anyhow, here are a few pictures of our great beach trip!

Meet Miss Taylor

A few weeks ago Kara contacted me about taking pictures of her 14 year old daughter, Taylor. She new of an old church out in the country that would make the perfect backdrop for the session. So, today was our photo session and what a great session it was! I headed west to Bell Buckle TN and found the most precious place..Cross Roads Church. It is always so great to meet such a wonderful family.. I will be in touch!

Meet Emma Claire

Emma Claire had quite a debut into this world. She was born at 24 5/7 weeks and weighing only 1lb 13oz..She has come quite a LONG way since her arrival on January 17. Emma has been home for a few weeks now and it was the perfect opportunity to have her photo shoot!! She was such a wonderful baby for her photo session and let me get exactly what I wanted to get! What a sweetie pie she is. Emily, thanks so much for a wonderful photo shoot and congrats on having your bundle of joy at home with you and Matt.

What a PeRfeCt evening to spend at Arrington Vineyard...

Saturday evening Charlotte and I headed out to meet up with friends at a beautiful place, Arrington Vineyard. Be sure to check out there website and make a date to visit this very beautiful place.. Just don't forget your picnic basket!! Thanks to our great friends really nice evening.

disclaimer...my ISO setting was WaY high and I didn't know it.. So my pictures are a bit grainy..It was a good learning experience..Check all settings before shooting pictures!!

This was my attempt at a self-portrait..the tripod was up on the hill with the rest of our stuff..I thought it was still cute enough to share... -)

Everyone loves a game of "corn hole"...

4 Month old Nate..What a happy guy!

Last Friday a dear friend came over with her "almost" 2 year old little girl and her sweet baby boy Nate. With only minimal drama with Charlotte and miss Emily, I managed to capture a few photos of baby Nate and what a CUTIE PIE. He spent most of the photo session with his super cute toothless grin stretching from ear to ear. We are so blessed to have such great friends! Thanks for visiting us and I will be in touch regarding the rest of the photos!!

Meet Kennadie Reece

These were taken about a month ago but I have been SO busy it seems I forgot to post a few of my favorites from the session.. It was so great to meet at such a cool location! Miss Kennadie is precious thanks again for asking me to capture some of her sweetness!!! Until next time....

Mother's Day with Mother Nature...

Today we headed out for a glorious drive on Natchez Trace! This would be the 2nd trip for Charlotte on the Trace but a 1st for all of the hiking we did. We stopped off at several of the falls and hiked our way down the long and winding paths down the slate rock and over beautiful natural bridges to reach the bottom and see such a perfect sight! A waterfall landing into a pool of water and then drifting down all the various paths!! This was exactly what I wanted to do for Mother's Day, outside enjoying the amazing weather and breathtaking scenery of Tennessee. We rolled up our pants, got our shoes wet and just played. Thanks for checking out my photos of our day.. It was just perfect.

Welcome to Natchez Trace
