Only 8 Days Old!

Daddy's Hands.

This little cutie did not want to take a nap! I was planning on Sutton spending most of our first session asleep and not even noticing that I was around, but he was very busy keeping an eye on what was going on in his house! Lots of new things and it all just made him hungry!





BIG Yawn!

Moment with Mom.

FINALLY Sleeping...momentarily.

I had a wonderful time spending some time with Sutton and his family. He's absolutely adorable!

Maria & Stewart Wedding!

So many images! I just couldn't decide. This weekend I had the privledge of photographing Maria & Stewart's wedding. I don't think they could possibly have been happier or more in love. They were both glowing!

Getting Ready.

Excitement!

The first time the saw each other dressed up for the wedding...

First Kiss.

Exchanging Rings

Newly Wed!

The Reception Details...
The Cake
The Toasts

Dancing

Escape! Under a shower of birdseed, some of it still wrapped up in it's tulle packaging to make it more of a missile than a shower!


And the cattle grazing on the hood of their car the next morning (actually all through the night.) My favorite part of the car decorations (not seen in this photo) was one of the cows had been "tipped."

Congratulations Maria & Stewart!

Maria & Stewart Rehearsal

Today was the rehearsal for Maria & Stewart's upcoming wedding! It was so great to see them again and to meet more of the family and friends.

The beautiful Maria...

Stewart...very happy to be getting married tomorrow!

Practicing the processional.

The Guys.

This church has a stunning pipe organ. I just had to take a few images of it while I had the opportunity!

A new family portrait! Look at those eyes!

Silliness! Cannot wait until the actual wedding!

Honey For Sale

Back, by popular demand, "Honey For Sale." This is actually an image I took a few years ago now. It was in rural Mississippi and I had my tripod set up and was trying so hard to "look serious" for the image I had in mind. People in trucks kept driving by and slowing down watching what I was doing so at least 50% of the roll of film (yes, this was BEFORE digital!) were photos of me laughing before the timing on the camera and my expression finally reflected what I wanted!

Happy Easter 2008!

May your year be blessed with wonderful new beginnings and fun surprises!

Model Session with Ellie

Ellie had modeled for me before, but it had been many years ago, when I was just starting to shoot. It was so much fun to get together again and create! The time flew by so fast that we are going to have to plan another session soon. We did not have a chance to shoot half of the ideas we had in just one session! Here are a few of our creations...
