Curly red hair. A two-year-old’s curiosity (and attention span icon wink Quinn | Childhood :: Columbia, Tennessee ). A beautiful day in April. This session with Quinn is exactly why I love photographing kids and families so much! Lots of silliness and chasing, many small breaks to investigate a bug or a funny-looking leaf, snuggles with Mommy and Daddy – just how a two-year-old’s day should be.

I loved every minute of this session! Liz and Jeff are two people I’ve known for a while, but haven’t had much of a chance to get to know until our session. They are part of a band called Whiskey Tango that my brother plays in as well, and let me tell you – these folks are talented. (Nope, I’m not biased at all. Call them for your next event!)

They are so in love, so ready to get married – it’s a beautiful thing to photograph. I hope you two enjoy every remaining minute of your engagement! Thanks for asking me to be a small part of this important time in your lives!

I was thrilled to take her senior pictures recently, and – super-excited – I get to photograph her sister’s wedding in just a few weeks! I had the best time learning about her school, friends, hobbies, you name it. Lauren just played the role of Belle in Zion Christian Academy’s production of “Beauty and the Beast”, and while I couldn’t make it to a show, I heard how she shined through it! This girl is going places, and I’m glad I was able to meet her at this exciting time in her life.

Well, hey April! Glad to see you and your warmer weather! Let’s all take a moment to be thankful for sunshine and 70 degrees, shall we?

 

1 :: Snail mail via an app. I will go on record saying I will never, never, ever get tired of snail mail. Evvvvvver. Getting a hand-written note or a package delivered is one of the few things in life that is potentially a surprise, something you have to wait for (we’ve gotten out of this habit, haven’t we?), and a wonderful way to know you’re being thought of. Someone has taken the time to prepare the mail they’re sending you, and it’s usually for a happy reason. Who doesn’t love personal snail mail?! Well, to make things even easier, there’s now an app for it. Printic is an app that lets you choose photos from your phone, turns them into polaroid-style, and mails it straight to the lucky recipient. You can even add a message to it!  Great idea, app makers…whoever you are.

2 :: Kris Carr’s blog. Thanks to Jennifer, I recently learned of Kris Carr and her healthy, healthy ways. She believes in living life to the fullest, eating the most natural and nutritional foods available, and – good for us – she shares every bit of what she knows! I’ve loved reading about her spring picks, and have been drooling over her delicious-looking recipes.  Though I’ve always tried to eat well and enjoy each day, there’s something about getting a boost of confidence, even if just from a blog post, from someone who’s really got those wholesome habits down.
