Hello loves!
Thank you for all of the sweet emails that I’ve received lately regarding TLC (The Littlest Crafton). We’re still impatiently waiting for our little man to to show up…hopefully any day now! I’ll update the blog with pictures when our tiny Pisces arrives!

For quite a while, I’ve been meaning to set up a referral program. The majority of my business has always come from brides/grooms and portrait clients telling others about how much they loved their images. I am SO appreciative for all of you that have done so. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Now that I have a few minutes to breathe, I wanted to implement a new referral program. Below are the details and once a new client books, with you as the mentioned referral, I will contact you to redeem your thank you present!

For past clients: When you refer a 2011/2012 couple that books a wedding with us, you will receive a wrapped canvas (16×20) of your choice of image from your wedding or (past or future) session. If you refer a 2011 family/couple for a portrait session, you will receive an 11×14 print of your choice. Families or couples must mention that you referred them prior to booking. I am booking Nashville, TN area weddings for 2011 but will be back to shooting most weddings outside of the Nashville area in 2012.

Thanks again!

It’s such a huge honor (and a nerve-wracking experience) to be asked to shoot a wedding for another wedding photographer…and to have them fly you to another country for that big day. Joelene & Sal got married this past week at The Velvet in downtown Calgary, Canada. Twenty years, and two boys later, J & S decided to tie the knot and recommit their lives to each other. Everyone laughed and cried their way through the ceremony and I was so thrilled to have this as my last wedding before maternity leave.
Love to you two! Here’s a big ol’ teaser post to close out a big year!




















Happy New Year everyone!

I have a soft spot in my heart for night time holiday weddings (we were married @ 10pm on NYE) and loved capturing Savannah & Brian’s rockin’ evening. Thanks to the team at Dandy Lion Events for all of their hard work!!!

This week I’m wrapping up all of my fall sessions and trying to get everything out the door before Christmas. I love that clients use my images to represent their year as a family!





Look for images from Savannah & Brian’s winter wedding on Monday!

To my clients, I am thankful for you. Thank you for trusting me with your relationships, your weddings, your children. My family and friends mean the world to me but I can never express how much fulfillment capturing your energy, laughter and love brings to my life.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Enjoy a few teaser images from Elise & Cameron’s engagement session!

I have three weddings coming up in December so we’ve been enjoying our November slow-down (aside from fall session editing) as a family. Here’s a few images from this past week at the beach!
Some of my favorite pictures of my husband and I have been taken by our 5-year-old. I think she’s after my job.

A few more quick previews from recent fall sessions! I’ve been wrapping up Christmas orders and gearing up for 3 weddings in December, so forgive my lack of blog posts lately. =)

Fall sessions are in full swing! Remember that if you’re wanting images back before Christmas, the cut off for sessions is November 22nd. Here’s just a quick peek at some recent shoots!

And, I know that people are supposed to fall in love before they reproduce, but… I guess normalcy isn’t really our style.”


From our family to yours, HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Fall session teasers coming up tomorrow!
