Foley Family Summer Carnival Session May 2019 in Dunlap, TN

Jessica and Aaron and their two sweet babies Brantley and Addison wanted a carnival session. We had one scheduled for the National Cornbread Festival and poor Brantley was diagnosed with the FLU a day before!! Fortunately, there was another carnival coming close by to Valley Fest in Dunlap, TN. We were able to reschedule. Brantley had a blast riding rides! Addison wasn’t too happy because there was only one ride they would let her on, but towards the end we got her some cotton candy and she was in heaven!

Fletcher and Erin Mini Session

A short and quick mini session with the ever adorable Fletcher. I was SO tickled that Erin wanted to be in a few shots! Fletcher is so full of life that even a 10-15 minute session with him turns out so many images!

Sophia Fall 2018

Every year Margaret brings sweet Sophia to me for updated portraits. Sophia is a little shy in front of the camera (not at all in real life) but it always takes her a minute to loosen up and be herself. But when she does, watch OUT. She’s a complete natural tiny model. At our session she told me all about her Halloween costume, and that she was going to the Jack-O-Lantern Jamboree the next day. Oh, I forgot to mention I am like four months behind on editing lol. Please enjoy these images of Sophia, in the woods, doing her thing and jumping really high.

2019 Senior Rep Model Lilli

I’m going to start this blog post by letting you know, I LOVE Lilli! I am so glad I chose her as one of my Senior Rep Models. She’s a 2019 Senior at Richard Hardy Memorial School in South Pittsburg, TN. She’s so well rounded, so down to earth and so, so laid back. Her session was one of the easiest I’ve ever shot. I asked her to mess up her hair and she did. I asked her spin around and walk towards me at least 90343 times and she did, with a badly sprained ankle from volleyball! She’s a great student, a wonderful daughter, a quirky girl and so much fun to be around. I had a really hard time narrowing these down!!

Cali Sweet Sixteen

Cali is one of a kind. She’s sweet and funny but also silly and awkward (and I mean awkward in the best kind of way, awkward people are my people). My other favorite thing about her was how comfortable she is with herself. Cali just moved here from Whidbey Island, Washington. Such a big change for this girl. I am so glad her mom brought a piece of WA with them to her shoot. She wore a ring that belonged to her grandmother that she received for her sixteenth birthday, they also brought her dog and we shot these at Foster Falls because it holds a special meaning to their family. Every detail was planned and meaningful! Also: look super closely, it rained on us the entire time!

David and Gabriela

First of all, these two tiny baby clients are from Atlanta, GA (about 2.5 hours from me) and their mama drove ALL the way up here so that I could take their portraits! That was definitely a first for me!!

David and Gabriela were adorable sweethearts that were so easy to work with! I hope you enjoy my favorites from their session.

NJHS 2019 Senior Rep Ashley

Ashley is the smilingest (not a word, I checked, but it describes her the best!) Senior Rep I’ve ever shot. She had a natural ease in front of the camera. And she didn’t even flinch when I asked her to sit in the middle of the road! (Don’t worry, we had a spotter!)
