Hi ...

A little about me: I am completely in love with my sweet husband (Jeff), our beautiful daughter (London), our dogs (Jack and Morgan), and our life. My other loves (in no particular order): family, spending time with great friends, warm socks, hot baths, traveling, camping, campfires, the great outdoors, autumn, being out on the lake, fishing (when we're catching something), 80s music, my girl's sweet and contagious smile, wine, my own caesar salads, laughing and then laughing some more. I am genuine. I am sentimental, often to the point of total sappiness. I am passionate about photography and have been for over 30 years (wow, maybe that dates me a little).

It is my hope to not only share with you some of the work that I'm doing and show off my awesome clients, but also to let you into my life just a little. It's hard for me to find time to work on personal things when there is real work to be done, but I'm going to try ... really, I am.

So, sit back and peruse these pages. If you see something you like, please leave a comment. Who doesn't like a little blog love? If you'd like to be notified when something new has been added, please feel free to subscribe to the blog (RSS or email) above. Thanks for stopping by!

Robin and JC … MARRIED!

“All that matters at the end of the day is that we’re married.” Those have been Robin’s words for the last several months. I loved that she cared about the wedding details, but didn’t obsess over them. All that truly mattered to her was that she was married to her best friend! Well, now she is! Robin and I have been friends for about two years. Though I had only met JC briefly at a party last year, he’s a friend now. I was honored to be their photographer!

So, wedding day … she and some of her close girlfriends (I’m blessed to be among those friends) met up the morning of the wedding to help her celebrate with breakfast and BOTTOMLESS mimosas! Good way to start the day! 😉 We met just down from the church in downtown Franklin at a cute place called 55 South. I wasn’t actually “on the clock” for this part, but couldn’t help grabbing a couple shots to document the day.

Then on to the church … let’s just say it’s a good thing we could walk over!

Photos weren’t allowed during the ceremony, so they chose to do a “first look” … meaning we carve out some private time for them to see each other for the first time … well, mostly private … I’m there too. Then we do all photos before the ceremony. We brought JC into the parlor of the church, where he waited to see his bride. When she entered, there may or may not have been tears … I won’t tell! They prayed together before seeing each other … LOVED it!
