Kimberly + James









So I rented this super awesome lens for a wedding I shot over the weekend and Kimberly & James got to enjoy the benefits of it too for their maternity shoot. It worked out great! I am crushing hard on that lens! Hopefully I will be able to find a nice used one soon… 

Anyway, this adorable couple is expecting their first baby in less than a month. I am in school with James and I had the pleasure of meeting his sweet wife Kimberly on this shoot. It was a rainy day but it stopped long enough for us to get some great photos. They are both from KY and huge football fans <hence all the Kentucky gear>. I think its great when couples bring their personalities and passions out through their photos. 

Congrats guys! I can't wait to see your sweet baby girl!

Olivia = Graduate
















So I will state the obvious… this girl is gorgeous! I just loved photographing her! Ever picture I took turned out so beautiful, not because of any skill I have but because of Olivia's smile, hair, perfect skin, and wonderful personality shinning through in ever shot! She is graduating from East Tennessee State's nursing program in a few weeks! Brains + Beauty!! You go girl!

 We had a fun time with these and I am oh-so-happy with the finished product. I've been trying to put just a few pictures up on here from each shoot, but I just couldn't help putting all 17 of these up… It was hard narrowing these down from the total. Oh well… I hope you like and 
CONGRATS OLIVIA!!

The Worley's












This sweet family is very special to me. 
They were some of my first photography models/clients and they are also the best neighbors in the world! I had the privilege of shooting their first maternity shoot when this precious baby girl was in her mama's belly. You can check those out here.
 Then I got to shoot my very first newborn pictures when Ashlynn was born, click here to see those. 
A few months later, we took some of Ashlynn on her first Easter. Here are those.
Now, just 12 months later, I got to take their SECOND maternity shoot. This one was more of a family/maternity combo shoot which was super fun because Ashlynn can always make you laugh. That child has so much energy, its unreal.
I can't wait until Caitlin gets here in a few short weeks and I can take some beautiful newborn photos for this awesome family!
