Rockstars

Okay, so they're not really rockstars... but these siblings ROCKED their session in downtown Valdosta last Sunday!
Leslie (older sister) and I have known one another for years, and recently got in touch with me about pictures. She said that her parents didn't have any recent pictures of her and her siblings, and wanted to arrange some portraits for a Christmas present. I jumped at the chance, as she's very photogenic and I was hoping that her brother and sister would be too! Let's just say that we shook Valdosta up! :)













The C Family

Last Sunday, I drove down to Gator Country to photograph Roger, Patty, and their two boys! I asked my husband if he wanted to go, but he declined. Being a Georgia fan, I completely understood. :)
Patty chose the most beautiful location, the meditation center at the University of Florida. The fact that they are a gorgeous family, and that the location was spectacular, definitely made the drive worth my while!

Bryan & Mia's Wedding

On Saturday, I had the great opportunity to assist Lindsi Jones (www.lindsi.com) at the wedding of Bryan & Mia. Perhaps my most favorite thing about being a second shooter was that I was able to focus on the details of the day... which was even cooler because they had the most beautiful flowers EVER!

















The Ethridge Family

Saturday afternoon, I met up with Lane and her parents. Lane is adorable, and almost a year old... what a personality she has! She's such a cutie, and her parents are so sweet! When I was talking to her mom about pictures, I was super excited when she suggested I go out to their house. Sometimes it's overdoing it a little for me to shoot at the same locations again and again, so it was a welcomed change, and I felt like I get to a know a family better when I'm in their natural environment.
Thanks again, Ethridge family, for inviting me over and sharing some photographs!

I'm swamped!

Between the four sessions I had this weekend, the two I had last weekend, and the wedding I photographed THREE weeks ago (I'm almost done, I promise!!) I'm up to my eyeballs in pictures. Have no fear, though... they're all coming soon! As a timesaver, I'll just post one picture from each session this weekend. Once I do some more edited, everyone will have their own personalized post. Until then, this is what I've got:

Sara & Neal

Sunday afternoon, I met up with Sara, Neal, their dog Riley, and Sara's sister Amy. I know Sara from an online message board. We've met for lunch once and I was super happy to take holiday pictures for her.
We had a bunch of fun at VSU's north campus, which is a beautiful spot for pictures. I'm really surprised we didn't rain on anyone else's parade. I usually have to wait for another photographer to finish when I do shoots there!

Sara, Neal, Amy... here are a few sneak peeks from your session:









And a holiday card option!

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

This morning, I drove down to Lake Park to visit Gentry and her parents. I love spending time with Gentry and this time was no different!
Gentry's mom bought the CUTEST costume for her to wear during our Christmas session, and I couldn't wait to get home to start the creative gears in my head to come up with the perfect card to showcase her pictures.

Here's one of the cards I've created.
