Making the decision to have a child is momentous.

It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.

My goal in life is to be as good of a person my dog already thinks I am.

Busy Weekend

I had a couple of great sessions this weekend!

On Saturday, I went out with Ben and Eli again. These two are growing up fast! Ben is now 3 and Eli is almost 10 months.



And on Sunday, I drove up to Kentucky to have a session with James. He is graduating this year and needed some senior pictures.



More from both sessions to come!

A Model in the Making

Alexis has been gracious enough to model some photography props for me.





Can I tell you how much I LOVE the face she is making in the below photo?
She makes it all the time now and it cracks me up every time!



I got the blanket she is sitting in below with the thought of using it with Camilla.

Kisses

Kara with Darcy



Up next: Nate and Camille, and then more Kara. :)

Hurricane Doyle

This past Friday I went out to the 5 Spot in East Nashville to see/shoot a band named Hurricane Doyle.
The band is headed up by this guy:





Lair is a really great song writer / guitar player / vocalist.





I had a great time and can't wait to see another show!





Oh, and did I mention that it was Lair's birthday?



Happy Birthday, Lair!

Reid

I took some photos of little Reid the other day.



I also got some with his mother.


And his father.

This little cutie arrived about 3 weeks after these were taken.

Mollie and Cale

November 22, 2009

Mollie and Baby Cale came to visit yesterday.

Emily & Dennis

This past Saturday I went to the wedding of Emily and Dennis. Emily was kind enough to let me take some photos, even though I wasn't the official photographer.

Here she is in the bridal suite just before the wedding.





Walking down the aisle with her father.







They had three beautiful cakes.



Congrats Emily and Dennis! I hope you two have a wonderful marriage!!

Lindsay and Family
