Yesterday, I met up with Tate for a portrait session at Yates’ Mill. Tate is a new client for me, but not new TO me. Felicity and I met Tate a couple of years ago in a Kindermusik class. Unfortunately (and we must change this), we have not gotten to hang out with Tate that much…although we do get to see him at the Library for storytime. Either way, I was thrilled when his mom contacted me recently to schedule a portrait session just in time for the holidays. We were hopeful that a few of the autumn leaves would hang around, but after Monday’s...

Saturday afternoon was simply beautiful. Okay, it was a little chilly…but it is November. It was one of those days that I was glad to have a client session – and especially at sunset. I was even more excited that that client session was with my dear friend, Pam and her family. Pam and I go way back…14 years. Gosh, we’re old. I met Pam during my first year of college.

One of the many things that I love about my photography business is that I have an opportunity to help create memories for my friends. It brings me such joy to see photos that I’ve taken float around Facebook during this holiday season. I feel so blessed to be able to do what I do.

The last time I saw her daughter, Lillie, she wasn’t walking (July)…but on Sunday, she was almost at a full run. I did my best to keep up! I won’t talk much more...

Earlier this week, I had the pleasure of shooting at my alma mater thanks to an old family friend. Brooke and I have known each other since we were little girls. Our moms are best friends and because Brooke is a couple of years older than me…I often got her hand-me-downs. Fast forward a few years and I followed Brooke to Peace College. I remember one day in particular that my mom and I took a day off from school to visit Peace and hand deliver my application. Brooke met up with us in the dining hall. Seeing a familiar face made me feel right at home. After a tour...
