Um, this print has just been added to my wish list.

Can’t wait to have the full post ready.  In the meantime, here’s a sneak peek at my Day After shoot with Chris and Angela.  They’re the coolest.

I’ve gotta give a big ol’ thanks to the talented and lovely Miss Jas Sams for giving me a nod in the article she wrote for Hello Atlanta about actors getting headshots.  To read her cool and helpful article, click HERE.  Also, check out her super-fun, wonderfully-written blog, Smile Big and Pretty.  Yay!  Since I don’t like to post without photos……I just happen to have a few I’ve taken of Jas.  Brains and beauty!

Ready……set……cuteness!!!  Oh my goodness.  Little Charlotte has arrived, and she is just perfect.  Such a lovely bundle of tiny, adorable sweetness.  It was wonderful to see Dave and Melissa again, who are obviously proud and happy new parents.  This gal is sure to have a life full of fun and love.  Congratulations, Linvilles!

Once again, I’m forcing Fletch to wish you all a Happy Halloween!

Oh boy!  Also, oh girl!  The adorable Hodgson twins have arrived, and they are two incredible bundles of joy.  These little ones are already adding so much obvious happiness into this family.  I’m really glad I got to meet them while they were still so teeny-tiny.  They were very patient and accommodating models.  I just couldn’t be happier for this kind and lovely family.

Happy Fall, y’all!

And by the super-powers vested in me…..I now pronounce the Carstens family, awesome!  Ok, so I already knew they were totally great, but this time they went above and beyond (or maybe I should say up, up, and away!).  Whenever I get together with them for family portraits, I know that they will be fun, adorable, silly, quirky, sweet….and then some.  However, this time they had capes.  Yes!  Whether we’re shooting photos of them doing natural, wonderful, family things, or flying through the air, the Carstens bunch is always a joy.  A suuuper joy!!

Ok, I know I get excited about everything I post, but, you guys……this one is a big deal.  My brain and heart still melt a little when I think about it.  This fantastic couple is Dave and Melissa.  The thing is, from the time Dave was about 3 years old, I was his babysitter.  Isn’t that awesome and crazy?!  Well, it is to me.  I adore his whole family, and have so many wonderful memories of them.  It was really cool to see Dave again, and see that he now has a lovely, smart, and beautiful wife.  Oh, and did I forget to mention that they’re expecting their first baby??!!  Actually, I just got a message from Melissa, and their new little girl has arrived.  Woo hoo!  I’m so thrilled and happy for them.  Next week……baby photos!  Super-yay!  Congratulations to the sweet Linville family!

I love passing along exciting news, and this post surely qualifies.  My pal Jaimie Cohen has launched a new website for her cool event planning business, Estoria Social.  Woo hoo!  This adventure seems to be the perfect fit for her since she has a background in consulting and management, and she also has a flair for all things DIY.  She is all about working her creative magic to bring a unique quality to her events.  If that’s not enough for you to realize her awesomeness, then I should point out that her biz strives to adhere to the concepts of reduce, re-use, and recycle.  Everybody wins!

We got together recently for a photo shoot that would showcase her special style.  If doing this shoot is half as fun as working with her, you should hire her immediately!  I have to give a big ol’ thanks to our lovely models, Jackie, Emily, and Payson.  Y’all rock!
