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.

Spring Session

Look at Brady here in her cute bunny dress and converse. Sassy and sweet. These pictures are from last year’s Spring sessions at Cedars of Lebanon State Park. This girl is so photogenic, and I can never wait to see what I’ve got from her. She’s also super sweet and smart…definitely going places. I love the way the barn makes her look so bright. Spring sessions this year are probably going to be on April 11th! I’m just now wrapping my head around them, so contact me for more information!

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!

I’m catching up on all my Christmas blogging this week! After the New Year, I’m pretty much finished with Christmas decorations, and ready to get back to regular settings! I love it so much during the season, though. I’m one of those people who start right after Halloween. LOL. This little family has been so important in our lives. They are such good friends. They come out for Christmas minis or Fall sessions each year. I look forward to it so much. I did them at Cedars of Lebanon this year, and they always do so well. Their oldest is the same age as my youngest, and it pains me to see how much they’ve grown up, even though I’m fully aware it happens. :) Thankful that they are turning into such good people.

Wilson County Fair Best Friends Session

I was so pumped when these three wanted to do a session at the fair! They have been friends since they were little and now they’re seniors! Keep your friends close and lift each other up. I love seeing girls who empower each other. I hope their senior year is the best yet. Keep scrolling for some cute and sweet girls.

SUNFLOWERS

These sisters wanted to do sunflower minis this summer, and I am so glad they did! These are some of my favorites ever. I have been taking their pictures for a while now, and have watched them grow up through my photography. If you’ll look, you can totally see their personalities here. I love that! Not to mention, they are so so beautiful. These sunflowers were at Sinking Creek Farm in Murfreesboro, and I caught them on one of the last days, which is surprising, because WOW. Keep scrolling to see the full session.

Sweet Siblings at the Fair

Look at these colors. These three are so cute. Little sis will smile…sometimes. Haha. They did great, and I’m so glad they came out. The Wilson County Fair is always a fun place to be. See you next year!

WILSON CO. FAIR MINI SESSIONS—Week of Aug 16-24

 I can't believe it's time again for Fair Sessions.  These are some of my favorites because they're so happy!  If you need some color on your walls, these minis are for you.

   Here are the details:  You will meet me at the fair, and have about 30 minutes with me.  Yes, there are so many colors, people, and craziness! It's awesome.  We act silly.  Your kids are already smiling because they're at the FAIR.  ...and it doesn't have to be kids.  It can be your family, seniors, or best friends!   You will get to see a gallery of retouched images, and you'll get to pick 15 to take home with you on a flashdrive, with unlimited printing up to 8x10.  Total cost is $250, so your regular session fee is waved.  It's also a discount on the 15 digital images.  AND you get the option to purchase any other product/digitals for 10% off regular pricing.

    Contact me now, so you'll get your spot.  Since it's only going on one week, and the most beautiful time for pictures is late afternoon, the appointments are limited. Just go to my 'contact' session here on my website, call me, or email me.  Can't wait to book your spot and see you at the Wilson County Fair!

Angelica’s Sunflowers

Meet Angelica, class of 2020. She contacted me about being one of my senior models (those pics are coming soon!), and she wanted to do these pictures in the sunflower field. Gorgeous! It was so hot this day, but she carried on, even doing some gymnastics in the flower rows. This is an amazing place for a session located in Murfreesboro. If you’re interested in doing a mini session this week (7/14), click HERE for more information. I can’t wait to show you more of Angelica during senior week in a couple of weeks! Scroll to see more of this sweet girl.

Brizeida / Class of 2019 / Lebanon High School

This girl graduated! I’ve known Brizeida for a long time, so it’s bittersweet. I know she’ll be successful in college, and can’t wait to see what her future holds. She’s silly and fun, but also smart and confident. This session was one of my cap and gown minis at the Mitchell House here in Lebanon. Scroll to see what a beauty she is!

Spring Session

These sweeties were so excited about this rabbit! Summer is almost here, so I thought I’d better blog this spring session. I’ve been photographing these three since forever, and love watching them get bigger. They are always so fun and energetic! Scroll down to see some cuties in action.

Graduate

Meet Jade. Class of 2019. So excited for her! I can’t believe it’s time already. This sweet girl had her cap and gown pictures done at The Mitchell House on Castle Heights campus during my cap and gown minis. We always have a great time. I’m glad she came, and I can’t say enough how important it is to get these pictures done at a time when it’s not so crazy! Graduation day is exciting and hectic, and sometimes it’s even hard to find your grad! She’s planning on getting her degree to be an investigative crime scene superhero (I’m sure that’s not the correct term, but it sounds fun and important). You’re going to do great, Jade! We’ll do this again when you graduate from college! :)

Spring Portraits

Aw, I love these every year. And I found a barn that I didn’t know was there! Bonus. I love this girl so much. I have been taking her pictures for years, and I even had her in school. I know she’s going to bring her sunglasses and take our annual sassy sunglasses picture, and do everything I ask of her. I always overshoot her session because she is so much fun. Look at that twirly dress. I can’t believe how she is growing. She reminds me of spring! Take a look at her sweet pictures.

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!
