Ronella and Skyer both are just fun, passionate people that are completely, madly in love with one another. It was definitely a joy to be around them and photograph their session.  We were having so much fun, it was hard to be serious at times! The results I couldn’t be more thrilled with! Check out a few of my favorites below!

After hanging downtown for a while, we went up to Lookout Mountain to finish our session at Sunset Rock. What a beautiful place!

We hiked in and knew I was in trouble when I had to go back up to the top.  Talk about winded! But I finally made it.

It’s so hard to choose my favorites. I was about to put “I love this photo!” above every one of them but decided I didn’t want to annoy my blog readers.  Hope you enjoyed the photos. Check back for their wedding photos in May of next year. It can’t get here fast enough!

I wrapped up another workshop last weekend with a Senior photoshoot.  Now, I have to be truthful that this was my very first senior session. I felt a little weird conducting a workshop and doing a session I’ve never done before but my client Leslie really wanted to 1) photograph her senior daughter and 2) get me out of my comfort zone.  Well, we definitely did both!  I’m finding out that Leslie doesn’t do anything half hearted. This photosession was no exception.  This was also the first time I’ve had a makeup artist, hair stylist and outfit coordinator follow us around on a photoshoot.  We all felt like rockstars.  And we had an AMAZING time.  Brittany rocked it in front of the camera!

This is so different than most senior sessions I’ve seen, I’m going to dub this session the “anti-senior session”.  Check out a few of my favorites!

We found this phenomenal area to do the photoshoot. I swear I could come to this place about 10 times and not get one shot that was the same.  Love this place!

Check out Brittany’s amazing Manolo Blahnik boots!

Love this photo!

Brittany’s very cool boyfriend Travis came along to help out.  He was so interested in what was going on and loved helping me out whenever I needed it. Don’t think this shoot would have gone as smoothly without him! Thanks Travis! Got a couple of shots of him while Brittany was getting in a different outfit…

Did I mention that Brittany rocked it? Her outfits were insanely cool.  Big thanks to Blake Wright for helping coordinate.

Oh bricks and ivy, how I love you.  I’m likin’ this pic A LOT!

Here’s the scene every few minutes. The girls were completely on their game the entire time. It was fun watching them rush in, do their thing and rush back out.  It was great having those extra set of eyes spotting things that I didn’t see.  Should hire them for all of my shoots.

Rose (the hair stylist) did an incredible job with Brittany’s hair.  Love what she did for this series of shots!

Wonder when Brittany is going to start her professional modeling career? I heard it pays well.

One more shot of the beautiful Brittany…

Wow… what an amazing time I had! It was a like a dream shoot.  Almost too much fun.

Thank you to Leslie for creating this awesome experience, Brittany for doing such a rockin’ job in front of the camera (you’re a natural), Travis for filling in the gap with any help we needed, Darin Wright for doing a wonderful job on the makeup and having a critical eye for detail, Blake for coordinating some really cool outfits, and Rose for doing an incredible job on Brittany’s hair!

I really wished we had about 2 hours more. There were so many more ideas I had that we never got to.  I’m so hoping we’ll be able to do it again sometime!

The last time I photographed little Foy was April of last year!  So as you might expect, he’s changed a WHOLE lot!  He was just full of personality. His main thought process goes a little like this — “RUN”!  That’s all his mind thought about.  Moving, running and exploring. Because of this, I had to act fast to get all of my shots. One sec the little guy was there and the very next – he’s gone!

Check out some of my faves…

haha… he never made it to the other parent! A.D.D boy (Alana’s the same) ran about halfway and then decided he wanted to play in the road!  Fun photos, nonetheless!

Much loved.

No wonder Foy’s running away from his parents.  Sheesh! haha

Love this one!

Check out the eyes!

I love this photo! Foy could care less about what was happening behind him. Rocks on the brain.

One last photo.  The self-portrait with the crazy photographer!

Hamakers: I loved hanging out with you guys again! Our lives are all way too busy but we’ve got to make time to get together!  Your family rocks!
