cutie patootie!

I am working my way through Mr. K's pics, but I had to share this one! I mean, how cute is he? He is such a big guy, chatting me up the whole session...and he is only TWO! Just so grown up! Everything was "O-tay" (ok) Love it! :-)

Jessica and Charlie-Oct 4th

I had a great time shooting these guys' wedding. They are so cute together! I wanted to give Jessica a quick preview of some of my favs. Such a good looking couple! It's a bit intimidating shooting the wedding of a Photography Major! Hope you guys had a great honeymoon!

quick link to Christmas cards

Here is a quick link to my Christmas cards since that blog post has gotten buried over time...
Deadline to book is Nov 20. Deadline to order is Dec 1st.

Huntsville minis

Well, this month has been and will be NUTS for me, but I wanted just to give a quick update. I have been swamped with regular portrait sessions, three weddings and I had my first group of mini-sessions. I went to Hunstville for a day and half, packed with 20 minis! Whew! I had the BEST host. Thanks a million, Susan. It was so nice to meet everyone. Just wanted to share a few.

Love this guy!

Literally! He is a good friend's little man and it was so good to see him again! Mom and Dad drove through on the way to Selma so that I could grab some shots of their cutie pie. He is just a joy! Those eyes kill me! I can't wait to see you again soon Mr. J!






"Model" client

These guys were so great to work with! When Miss C first got out of the car, I asked her if she was ready for her "supermodel shoot." She told me that actually she is a model! Wow! I can see why! Her little brother was too cute. Little football player for sure! You could easily see the bond between them.

Giving Back




With the Month of October being recognized as Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, The Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep Foundation holds its Annual Fund Drive for six weeks starting in mid-September and ending in October.

President Ronald Reagan enacted Proclamation 5890 in October of 1988 to recognize that each year, approximately a million pregnancies in the United States alone end in miscarriage, stillbirth, or the death of a newborn child. Reagan stated, "A national observance offers us the opportunity to increase our understanding of the great tragedy involved in the deaths of unborn or newborn babies. It also enables us to consider how, as individuals and communities, we can meet the needs of bereaved parents and family members... "
