Brothers

So I had both of these guys in class way back when. They have grown so much. When their dad suggested we do a session for their sweet mom, I jumped at the chance. It was great seeing them again, and they are two of the most mannerly kids I’ve ever met! Such good raising…:) We went to a park area here in town for their session and they did great. Scroll to see a silly playground shot. :) :)

Senior Pictures

I love this family!! I hope they are in our lives forever… :) We went out and took pictures with cows, COWS! So fun. From feeding cows, to showing off fashion, to dancing, I loved this session. And of course the best friend came, who is also pretty great. This is why I specialize in family and senior pictures. IT makes me so happy. I also got to hone my photographing of animals skills. haha. I actually have the cow licking his chops hanging in my kitchen.

Grace’s Journey

Meet Grace. I have known this girl for a while now through church. She contacted me to ask if I would take pictures to document her journey through life and her medical issues, which I thought was a great idea. She is strong, bright, and happy. She is optimistic and doesn’t let the world get her down. You‘ll see her here with her friend, Chubbs, and lots of the things that have gotten her through this time in her life, namely friends and family love.

Grace is a sophomore at Tennessee Tech, hoping to become a pediatric oncology nurse. She would like to encourage others to accept their true beauty, and focus on things that are positive. There are always reasons to smile through health and sickness. She is grateful, even through this season in the world and in her life. True beauty and strength comes from within. She recognizes, and wants to inspire others, that they are beautiful, strong, loved, and most importantly, created perfect in the Lord’s image. She’s always smiling and is definitely an inspiration!

Lora and Eddie

These two are twins…Are you surprised? They are heading off to college where I know they will be so successful. Lora will be at Western KY (mine, too!), and Eddie’s going to Tennessee Tech. I love that they are independent enough to go to different places, but I bet they will miss each other! 2020 has been such a weird year. Our kids are so resilient. I know they will go like nothing can stop them.

Colson’s Flowers

More flowers! I love this little farm in the heart of Murfreesboro, so when I did sunflower mini sessions, we had to go over to the Black Eyed Susan’s, too. I’ve known this mama for a long time. We went to school together way back when. I love when I get to see how her kids have grown. Sweet family!!!

More Sunflowers!

This family comes to my mini sessions quite often. These kids remind me of my own. Sunny, quirky, and fun! You can tell they have a good time at home. I always laugh the whole way back at the things they said. They obviously can love each other and tease each other. Happiness!

Vintage Sunflowers

I got so happy when I saw Jessie and Josh because these outfits!! Vintage sunflowers pictures are awesome. I love taking pictures of these two. They are always so cute. Also Josh is so good to his sis! It is amazing. They come to a lot of my minis, and I look forward to it every time. They did not disappoint!

Haley’s Sunflowers

Meet Haley. She’s a senior at Lebanon High. This year sure is going to be weird, but this girl. She’s all smiles. She’s a hard worker who’s going to get through everything with her good attitude. We had a rainy night when we took these pictures at the sunflower farm, bur we jumped out during a break and shot these pictures. We were quick, and she did great. Love her!

Lindsay and Hank’s Cancelled Prom

I love these two people so much! Now they are seniors, I guess! Boo hoo. Since prom was totally cancelled and Lindsey already had her dress, we decided to take advantage of that and go get pictures. I love the way they turned out. I know when I look back on these pictures later, they will make me sad because it’s the beginning of the end of high school for my guy! I’m glad we did this, so we have these memories. I can still do these as mini sessions all summer for those of you who need it!

Nashville, TN Photographer | Graduation Sessions

Jordan’s Cap and Gown Session

Meet Jordan, class of 2020! Wow, it has been a difficult year for you grads. Jordan took advantage of my cap and gown mini sessions, which will be open for you all summer if you graduated this year. You deserve something special. We went out to the Mitchell House to do these, and it was perfect. Jordan is an avid gamer and an Eagle Scout. He also loves to draw, which I love because I live with an artist. :) He plans to go to Nossi College of Art in the fall. He is the oldest of three brothers and works at a restaurant. I know he’ll do great things! Good luck, Jordan!!

If You Missed Senior Pictures, Graduation, and Prom…

Class of 2020, and also juniors and seniors who missed prom, graduation, or senior pictures, I feel for you! I’m opening mini sessions only for you at a huge discount. I know it’s disappointing. We’re going to get through this together, so I was trying to figure out a way to help. Here’s what’s happening:

  1. Class of 2020—SENIOR PICTURES if you didn’t have time to do them

    CAP AND GOWN PICTURES—whenever you pick those up

  2. Juniors and Seniors—PROM Pictures…Bring you, your date, your friends. Did you buy that dress already?

Dates are to be decided, depending on interest and when you can come. I will do my best to accommodate you with dates and times. This is the exciting part: Cost is $125, and includes 10 digital files printable to 8x10, with options to purchase more files and products (but no pressure). Y’all this is a savings of $200. I so want to give you this! Please email, text, call, whatever. I would love to talk to you. I want to hear your take on all that’s going on and encourage others to be hopeful. Let’s talk!

Cap and Gown Session

Y’all, this was soooo fun. I think last year Brizeida and I got together for senior sessions about three times. I love people who love pictures! We had the best time at each one, and each one was a little different. That what’s you want, to be different? Yes! We went to the high school and took pictures all around. As you can see she played softball, so that was a priority. I cannot express how important it is to put your own spin on your senior session. It’s a time when you will never be like this again, so load up all the things when you come. Bring what fits you. We will work it all in. Be creative, have fun. It’s not too late, and I can’t wait! These sessions will happen, just keep on keeping on. Be safe. Sending love.

Nashville, TN Photographer | Prom Sessions

When is your prom?

They will last 20-30 minutes, and you’ll get 15-20 digital files with unlimited printing rights to 8x10. Grab your friends, your date, or come with just yourself. Cost is $250.

Lora and Eddie’s Senior Session

Meet Lora and Eddie. They’re twins! I’ve known them for a long time, and now they’re seniors at Lebanon High School. We loved hanging out at Cedars of Lebanon State Park and taking their senior pictures. These two are into band and color guard. Lora plans to attend Western KY University to study business, and Eddie is headed to Tn Tech for engineering. Sweet people who I know will do great things! Scroll to see their senior pictures. Time goes by too fast.

Brizeida’s Prom Session

Are you thinking about prom? Brizeida came for a prom mini-session last year (which I will be doing again, for sure!). She is so gorgeous. I think we ended up doing 3 or 4 senior sessions of her doing different things, wearing different outfits. Girl after my own heart! I’m sure you’ll see her here on my blog again soon with her grad session. She is beautiful on the outside, as you can see, but also on the inside where it really counts. This blue prom dress pops on these walls and alleyways in downtown Lebanon, one of my favorite spots. I’ll also be taking the pictures at Lebanon High School prom this year, so look for me and grab me!

Kayla

I love taking this girl’s pictures. I started when she was 12. I love being able to see her as she grows each year. She is such a sweet thing! And cute, too! She came to me when I was focusing on tweens, which I still love, but she’s not a tween anymore. She’s a homeschooler and dancer, which I have yet to get her in her ballet slippers. I’m waiting for that! We went out to Fiddler’s Grove with the cabins for this shoot. I’m already thinking about where to go next time. Good luck with your driving, Kayla, and I can’t wait to see you for your next session!

Grace | Class of 2020

Meet Grace, class of 2020 at Lebanon High School. This girl is one who is close to my heart! She’s one of my daughter’s best buds and she has a special place. She is obviously in band, and enjoys it so much. I love when my seniors bring things that represent them (including her dog! Just scroll to see his cuteness). Grace is into church, band, loves to travel, keeps her grades up, and is just all around a great girl. So glad she is in our lives. Her plan is to attend Tennessee Tech University and major in engineering. Wow! Can’t wait to to see what the future holds for her.
