The Kennemur Family

I had so much fun photographing these beautiful girls! I was very, very nervous on the way to the shoot, because this was first shoot ever for someone that I didn't know! So far, I had only photograped friends & family! I participated in a giveaway through Lily Pad Botique (http://lilypadboutiquedesigns.com/blog),  and Tiana was the winner! Of course, the minute I met them, the nervousness was totally gone! They are the sweetest & aren't there little dresses just gorgeous?

Beautiful mom & her beautiful girls!

Thank you so much, Tiana for a wonderful shoot!

Hayley

Here is another beautiful girl that just happens to be my neighbor! We had the best time doing these pictures! We did these at her grandmoms house & at my in-laws house (they happen to live across from each other!). We had a beautiful day to shoot!

Thank you, Hayley & Mandy for letting me take these photos! Mandy & Wayne are going to have to fend off the boys in a few years! :)

The Dean Family

My first family shoot! This is my sweet friend, Sandy & her family. Sandy was my little Luke's daycare teacher until he was a year old & we love Sandy! We shot these down on Morris Avenue, which was fabulous! I love the cobblestone street & all of the cool textured doors & walls of the buildings. They are such a sweet family & we had a great time together!

This one is one of my favorites!

Thank you, Sandy, Bill, Lyndey & Austin! Y'all are a beautiful, sweet family! I am so glad that y'all were my first ever family shoot!

A Little About Me

I thought I would start a series of posts about me! This month I'll share some of my favorite things!

Of course, my sweet, loving, incredible boys!

My husband hates to have his picture taken, so I'm going to wait & try & snap a good one of him & post later!

The funny, lovable pup, Aspen:

Favorite drink:

Favorite Music: Foo Fighters (Dave Grohl, enough said!)

Harry Connick, Jr.

The Avett Brothers

The Black Keys

(All of the photos of the musicians were not taken by me, unfortunately! I found them on the web)

However, this photo was taken with my camera (but not by me since I am in the photo!) This is another favorite band, 100 Monkeys. I won a meet & greet with them a few months ago & this is my sis-in-law, Lisa, friend, Charlotte & the band! And YES, that is THE Jackson Rathbone (from the Twilight series!)

Noah is 4 Months Old!

Meet Noah! He is one of my best friend's sweet, sweet baby boy! I love photographing babies & this precious boy is one of the reasons why! Noah is the happiest little boy & was so much fun to shoot!

This is one of my favorites! Sweet baby!

Thank you so much, Christy for letting me take these sweet photos! And a big thank you to my friend, Debra, who shot with me. She & I are both starting out in photography, so she came with us! I'll share her information when she gets her site & Facebook page up & going!

Miss C!

This is Miss C. My sweet, beautiful little friend who was so sweet to model for me. Her mom just happens to be a good friend & they are our neighbors! Since I am still learning & trying to take pictures as much as I can,(and my sons are really done with me taking their pictures), I asked for help! I took these around our neighborhood one evening. We had such a great time!

Thank you, Jo for letting me photograph your beautiful daughter! And thank you, Miss C for being such a great model!
