Clifton & Calhoun Wedding

I had the extreme honor of photographing the wedding of Katie and Jared on Dec. 18th. It was my first official wedding (because I don't think photographing my dad's wedding should count) and I was really nervous. It's a lot of pressure to be in charge of capturing the beautiful moment of marriage for a couple. But Katie and Jared put their faith in me and I refused to let them down!

It was a really amazing ceremony and the group of people there celebrating with the happy couple was awesome! I have a ton of things I could say about the breath-taking music, the hip & modern setting...the amazing love and devotion of the couple... but they have been waiting a while to see their photos and so I am going to let the joy speak for itself.

Congratulations Katie and Jared on your amazing future! Thank you for letting me be a part of it all.

Huffman Family

Momma Huffman is a hoot! I met her at my first Anue Salon photo shoot and I keep finding excuses to photograph her. Who knew when she walked in to the salon with a huge blond afro that I would be at her home a few months later photographing all of her beautiful children for Christmas in just a few months! But, I am certainly pleased as Christmas punch to have had the chance to visit the Huffman's at their home for a dandy photo shoot on a crisp...if not down right cold, Sunday afternoon. Not too shabby if you ask me.

This family is so much fun. How on earth they make time for anything with four kids (ages ranging from 17 months to 7 years old) is beyond me! Some how they do it though. And they do it well. This group is like watching a J. Crew magazine run around in real life. It's awesome. And overwhelming. But, the girls are as sweet as little girls come, and P warmed up to me, eventually (only after I let him take some pictures himself).

It was a blast! What can I say? Thanks, B-Huff, for inviting me into your beautiful home to photograph your gorgeous family and spend some time with a lovely family full of joy and giggles! Merry Christmas!

Hadfield Family

Tis the season...to take family portraits! And today, on a chilly Sunday morning I had the great joy of meeting and photographing the Hadfield family. They were so much fun! It's a lot of fun to photograph. Period. It's really fun when you get to photograph such good looking people (yeah, I said it)...and it is icing on the cake when you photograph new people that you honestly think you could be friends with. That's totally how I felt about this family. I could be buddies with them, instantly! So it make working feel like hanging out. Cheers!

So, in my new "environmentalist" mood I travled to their house to take photos of the Hadfields on their home turf. Plus, it was way too cold to be out in the elements for longer than a few minutes. We had a blast. We played around...broke some equiptment, sneezed on some cats, shared some Diet Cokes...and also, when time allowed, took some amazing photos of this beautiful family doing what they do best: being awesome. 

I am blessed beyond measure to do something I love so much, and its days like today that make me think I am the luckiest girl around. I get to take pictures of awesome people for a living. It doesn't get much better. 

Thank you so much, Hadfields, for letting me spend some of the holiday season with you! Happy Holidays!
