six months sweet | Folkston, Georgia photographer

When I got an e-mail about scheduling six month photos for Trey, I was a little surprised....had it been that long already? Seems like I was at the "J" home just yesterday doing his newborn session. Time flies by when you're having fun...or super busy!

This sweet little boy was ready for photos after his extra-long afternoon nap. He loved watching his Mimi J and Momma make funny faces, sing, and play peek-a-boo behind the funny lady with the big black box! :-)

Here's your preview Melissa! As always, you have lots more coming.

{where I've been and what I've been up to...}

While I haven't been posting, I have been busy! In the past two weeks we've had several birthday parties, school clothes shopping, and the meet & greet at Darci's school. YES, school. Today was her first day, and it went great. We couldn't be more proud....or sad! :-)

Here's a snapshot of her right before her big entrance into r-e-a-l school.




REMINDER! If you want a holiday mini-session PLEASE e-mail me or call me asap -- my November calendar is filling up fast!! A mini-session is 30 minutes, you get 8-10 proofs, a free 5x7, and tons of holiday card templates to pick from...I only have a few dates left open -- so planning early is a must :-)

Winners come in Twos | Hilliard, FL photographer

Congratulations to EMILY HASPEL & BRITTANY MCSWAIN! They were my top two picks from the many senior nominations I received and because I can't ever pick a single winner, I picked TWO! Look for their session sneak peeks in the next month!

Here's are a few excerpts from their nominations.

"What makes Emily Haspel special.......
Her wonderful outgoing personality.
Her dedication to her family and friends.
Her goal to succeed in a career in Radiology.
She is just an all around wonderful girl. She is such a joy to be around."

"Brittany is a very giving person. She volunteers in her free time at Wolfsons Childrens Hospital, volunteers her time at her dance studio with the little girls, and also volunteers in the community for special events. She is very thoughtful and always put the needs of others above herself."

"here comes f i v e"

When did my baby grow up? Every birthday is significant, but this year has really been anticipated with excitement and sadness (on my part) because kindergarten comes in a few short weeks.

She is artsy, musical and full of life. Daddy has taught her well, and she is already booing those Georgia bullblahhs! She is our pride and joy, truly a blessing from God, and we grow more and more in love with her sweet sweet spirit every single day.

preview my 2009 holiday cards!

As Fall quickly approaches I am starting to put together my 2009 holiday card collection...here's a quick tease! I'll be selling 5x7 and 5x5 sized cards this year...and as always if you've had a session in 2009 you're welcome to order cards using photos from that session. As soon as I get all the samples put together I'll drop a note here on the blog for anyone wanting to see the entire collection. Enjoy these for now!

"If kisses were water, I'd give you the ocean.." || fernandina beach, florida photographer

This beach session was scheduled for last week, and from bad weather to being "under the weather", I think we were beginning to wonder if this session was meant to happen! No worries, though, we had beautiful weather all weekend and finally were able to get together.. Mr. Cale wasn't too sure about the waves, but he did like Daddy pulling him the wagon!

Enjoyed visitng with y'all Tara & Bryan -- hope you like this preview!
