Nashville, TN Photographer | Newborn Pictures

Sweet Caroline

I love taking pictures of sweet newborns in your home! This little one slept so well, I just couldn’t stop! Meet Caroline, the fourth baby in this family. Sisters and brother are super excited, and I know they’ll do great, help mom and dad, and be the best siblings. You can just feel the love this little one brings out. Sucha fun, crazy, busy, loving family!

Nashville TN Photographer | Limited Edition Spring Mini Sessions

It's time for Spring Mini Sessions.

Let’s give back to our community.

In light of the recent tornadoes in Lebanon, I was trying to figure out how I could use my business to give back. I was so awed to see and participate in all the volunteering going on. I am so proud of our community, and also saddened at all the destruction. I know people will be rebuilding and healing for a long time. When I saw the volunteers posting about family pictures being found amongst the debris, it gave me an idea. Of all the tangible things that were lost, family pictures are the closest to my heart. If I had to grab anything at the last second, it would be as many photo albums/hard drives/pictures I could get my hands on! If you book one of these sessions with me on April 11th, let’s talk about who you know that needs a family picture right now, or maybe someone who now can’t afford senior pictures/milestone pictures/engagements. I’d love to give one to somebody who needs to make these memories.

 

Here is the information for the sessions…there definitely will be a bunny.

*For $199, 20 minutes or so with me and my camera and 10 digital files at Cedars of Lebanon State Park. (There will also be more add-on packages to choose from).

*$50 nonrefundable retainer holds your spot.

Nashville, TN Photographer | Downtown

Carissa’s Senior Portraits

Carissa and I had SOOOO much fun running around downtown taking these pictures. Seriously, running, driving, getting out at whatever place looked good. I would do this again in a second! Thanks to her parents, I didn’t get lost once. :) :) We found some murals that were a little different (that dog, though!), and we had such a good time. Carissa is a senior at Lebanon High School, and plans to pursue international business (school to be decided!). She’s a dancer, too, and you can tell in the jumping picture below. Haha. Alsoshe’s super photogenic and sweet. She always makes me laugh with her proper use of language. That’s why I love her! I know she will be successful in everything, and can’t wait to see what happens with this girl.

Robinson Family Session

Meet the Robinsons. Haha. Not THOSE Robinsons. I’ve literally been waiting to say that. I have taken this family’s pictures a few times over the years, and I was so glad to do it again. The kids are a little older, and some husbands and kids have been added this time around. The more the merrier, and they did a great job. The weather did not cooperate well on this day, but I do like some clouds. Rain, not so much, but everybody put on a smile and had a great session. We laughed at the kids and fed the goats across the fence. This family loves each other so much, it’s obvious.

Levi’s Senior Session

Meet Levi, Class of 2020 at Lebanon High School. I have known him for a very long time and he comes from a family of teachers, just like me. He obviously loves football, and these turned out great on Lebanon High’s field. I love when seniors bring a little bit of themselves into the session! Scroll to see more of him, and the Breakfast Club shot was his awesome idea. I wish him so much fun and adventure in his senior year!

Nashville, TN Wedding Photographer | The Mill at Lebanon

Treva + Eric

This wedding. Treva and Eric. It was so sweet. Y’all, he sang to her during the ceremony! Look up this song: “A Song For You” by Donny Hathaway (link below. I don’t think there was a dry eye. I got to know these two during their engagement, and I could tell their love will last forever. They dated a while, and and I believe Eric finally convinced her to marry him, thankfully! :) :) They have gone through so many life trials and have stuck together through better and worse already. It’s going to be smooth sailing with each other by their sides. I’m so glad they picked me to document their day at The Mill. I wish them so much happiness!

Class of 2020

Meet John, class of 2020. This senior goes to Mt. Juliet Christian Academy. He’s in the band, which I love. Plays lots of different instruments; so smart. Scroll to see which ones he brought to this session out at Cedars of Lebanon. I love it there because there are so many different places to go. He did great! And he is going to study to be a pastor after high school. Good luck, John! Congrats on your upcoming graduation, and make this senior year one to remember.

Gage’s Senior Session

Meet Gage, a senior at Coffee County High School. For his session, we went downtown in Lebanon and then to Don Fox Park, where we waded into the creek! He loves fishing and will fish anywhere. It also cracks me up how much these boys love their shoes. Scroll to see his favorite pair. Gage plans to go to community College after this year. He’s interested in helping the environment. Gage, work hard and enjoy the last year. Don’t forget to have fun!

I found this awesome blog post about advice for seniors. Check it out! It makes this mama a little sad, since I have a freshman in college.

First of all, obviously this is a summer throwback. I just can’t resist catching up with my blogging with these two cuties. Photographing sisters at their best is awesome. I hope they get along this well at home, and always stay close. It was almost dark this night at the Wilson County Fair, which made all the colors so pretty. You girls are too cute, with equally beautiful personalities!

Sisters at the Fair

Now, I know that it’s cold outside and it’s January, and we're hoping for snow and all (well, some of us), but I couldn’t resist posting these summer fair pictures when I came across them again. The colors and these girls just make me happy! These two are sweet AND cute; so glad they did this with me. I love each season as it comes, and even though I’m eagerly watching the forecast for snow this week, I’m also waiting patiently for the warmer weather and definitely the longer days.

Christmas Time

Now that everyone has sent Christmas cards and spent time with family and friends, it’s safe to post these tree farm Christmas minis. We went out to Circle S Farms here in Lebanon and had a blast in the pine trees. I love meeting with these families and then getting Christmas cards with my pictures! So fun and rewarding. Until next year!

Circle S Farms is an awesome place for for taking family pictures and weddings. It’s beautiful! In the picking season, they also have strawberry patch that residents of Wilson County love.

Christmas Family

I love Christmas, who doesn’t? This family made it double fun. I was so glad to be able to squeeze them into this busy holiday season. All these cousins were great; reminds me of when I was growing up. …and such a pretty background for pictures. I am thankful for them allowing me in on some of their crazy fun and love.

New pricing and time for each session will customize it to your needs.  Do you need a senior session?  Family?  Child?  Please respond to this email to find out what new things are happening.  Now is the time during this fall season. These new changes may not last.  Make your memories now!
