Coy #3

As promised, here are just a few more of little baby Coy's birth. Well, technically after his birth, but I wanted to get these out here so I can post more of his newborn shoot. Enjoy!

Newborn Shoot

I am posting the last segment of Baby Coy's pictures tomorrow, but wanted to share this one of him I took today on our newborn shoot. What a handsome baby!

Baby Coy - Part Two

Thank you to those of you who have been patiently awaiting more birth pictures, and even to those of you who are not so patient. :) You know who you are. Here's the second of three posts I am doing on this beautiful birth. I suppose you could call it the labor and delivery segment. Enjoy!

















I wasn't going to post these last two tonight, but I feel like labor leads to something so beautiful, it has to go together. What a special time in life! Jeni you are so so blessed! Stay tuned soon for more of sweet baby Coy.

Happy Friday!

Baby Coy - Part One

The anticipation:








There really were so many great shots of this adorable couple that it was hard to narrow it down to what is an ok amount in the 'blogger' world. :) With that said, I will be doing another segment, maybe even two more in order to really show the events of their birth.


Aren't they just adorable?! I know they would never want me to say that, but I'm saying it. :)


And speaking of adorable, isn't Jeni the most beautiful mama to be?! I mean, I've seen myself the day I gave birth, and I sure wasn't looking so beautiful.





We'll end with this one for the day. Stay tuned for the labor, delivery and baby segment(s). Happy Tuesday!

Sweet Sweet Baby

Here is a teaser to my first birth photography experience. It was amazing. I will share a lot more soon...

Flash or no flash

Last week I took my almost 5 year old son, Cole, to the circus. We had a great time! I had told myself that I would live in the moment and not take too many pictures and not stress out about it, and I didn't. Take too many pictures that is. We went early to the pre-show and got to see some aerialists up close. I took on picture on auto (with the flash). Yikes! I knew it wasn't going to be good. This is what I got:



Not the best. So then as we stood there I quickly changed over to manual and gave it a try:



Much better! I do wish that I would have had more time (and closer seats!) to play with the spot lighting in that arena, but Cole and I had a great time and I did learn a quick lighting lesson. Stay tuned for pictures from a baby's birth that is happening TODAY! I can't wait to try my hand at birth photography. This is something I have been wanting to try, to capture those tender moments, those tiny hands and feet, to witness the miracle of life at a distance, and to give the family a rememberance of those first minutes with their sweet child.

Happy Thursday!

The 'B' Family

Hi ya'll. I am starting to feel better. More like myself, and not like some lazy person who occupies the couch throughout most of the day. :) And with that said, I could have posted these pictures a while back, but I guess I was saving them for, well, now! These guys are some of our greatest friends in Nashville. In fact when I first got my camera, Amanda was one of the few people I called and begged to let me come over and take pictures of her and her baby. hehe. She's a good sport. I love how these turned out. This is their house and land, and I thought it was cool that they wanted pictures on their property. Enjoy!


I think this one is my favorite! I love it so much I am debating framing it and hanging it up on my wall... so people will ask, 'who's kids are those?' Ok, maybe that would be silly, but aren't they so super cute?! Amanda's a scrapbooker. A good one. So I am sure she will do something awesome with this one!


The whole family. Aren't they cute?!













We'll end with this one. Happy Saturday!
