Tunnel Vision

The thing is, I'm a minimalist. I carry a small purse, with small wallet and only have 1 keychain with only the keys I actually use on it. This does not always mesh well with photography. Like the time I didn't want to take my whole camera bag onto the beach because I was only photographing my own child and realized once I got down there that I had no batteries in my flash. So I'm trying to be better about thinking what is necessary and sometimes that means having more. That said, I had this realization that while I've been posting sample photos to my blog I've been doing so with smaller images, so they don't take up so much space. And then I realized (why this took so long to realize, I'm not sure) that you can't always see them very well and truly appreciate their beauty when they're so small! So I'm going to go back through and start posting larger images so you can see what's going on, especially with the family group pictures. Just thought I'd let you know, I'm trying to think BIG about my little business and I hope you are too!

More Family Fun!











It was another fabulous morning at Forsyth today, this time with Wes and Wyatt (you remember them right? If not, scroll down a bit and then come back...I'll wait :)) and their maternal extended family. We had SO much fun! Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt and Uncles all came down from South Carolina for pictures so they wouldn't have to drive as far. As it is with many families Grandma and Grandpa are about to have an empty nest and wanted one last family photo before everyone went off to college/missions/military/husband & babies. Ana has three brothers and one sister, and as you can tell from these pictures, they are a hoot! I had a blast with them, especially playing out on the playground. As you can tell, I had a hard time narrowing down my favorites for the blog, they were all so good! A special "Thanks!" to Brendon who had to have some late senior portraits done as well; that's what happens when you don't take them with the rest of your class. He graduated this past June and leaves soon for the Marine Corps. My thanks to the whole family for giving me such a fantastic start to the day!

'Tis the Season...







It's never a bad time to do family pictures and right now is perfect! I spent the morning with Skye and her parents at Forsyth Park where we got some great pictures of her little family. We even managed to get a couple of Mom and Dad! Now when was the last time YOUR Mom and Dad had their pictures taken? Have your family portrait done now, while the weather's still nice (it was BEAUTIFUL this morning) and that will be one less thing to worry about when Christmas comes! And we can create custom cards just for you, so your family will have the best card around this year! Call me to schedule your appointment before summer slips away! 912.398.1659
