A Lovely Weekend...

Kelly and I spent a lovely weekend near Chattanooga. We stayed with some friends at their home on the Tennessee River, and it was so peaceful! Our hostess had a dinner party, inviting lots of extended family, and we had a lovely time making new friends and enjoying good food.

I am not much of a landscape photographer, but it was so pretty here on the river, I had to try. We had spectacular weather--not too hot, not too cold, and a nice pleasant breeze. We sent most of the time outdoors on the deck overlooking the river.

More News...

First of all, let me say I am NOT a product photographer!

But I am excited to share a new tool for helping my clients choose exactly which portraits in which sizes for displaying in their space. This great little guide shows a variety of wall displays in various sizes and prices ranges. You just choose a layout, and I place your images into the design!

A Lovely Wedding...

I had the pleasure of working with Amanda Hagler of Shutterbelle Photography yesterday as we photographed Megan and Joshua's wedding at the Hermitage. The Hermitage is President Andrew Jackson's estate, and the wedding was held at the little church on the property. The reception followed at Tulip Grove Mansion, which was the home of Rachel Jackson's nephew, and Andrew Jackson's private secretary, Andrew Jackson Donelson. It was a lovely wedding, and Megan and Joshua were a joy to work with. We were fortunate that the week of rain leading up to the weekend ended just in time for the event. So here is a sneak peak of some of the images. Congratulations, Megan and Josh!

Another Exciting Product for Seniors

I am so excited to be offering these beautiful Senior Albums! The bound coffee table books highlight your senior photos better than any traditional album could. These books are available in several sizes, and the colors in the design can be customized to suit you. Aren't they beautiful?

Beautiful New Storyboards!

I am so excited about a new line of storyboards I am offering for my clients. These come in sizes like 10x20, 5x10, 16x16, and 12x12. They are all mounted and have a protective coating, so they are perfect for displaying on a plate stand, as well as the wall. These are only available with the purchase of a collection or baby plan. I hope you are as excited about them as I am!

A Very Rare Event...

Well, one of those rare snow events occurred in the Nashville area overnight. I just LOVE snow, so I was thrilled. As you can see from the photos, we got nearly 3 inches of snow. Of course, buy the time I got these photos posted, the snow had completely melted. So all those people that bought sleds yesterday better have gotten up really early this morning! And the forecast is for temperatures in the 60's in a couple of days...

Family Gathering

I just returned from a big family gathering at my parents' lake house, celebrating my mom's birthday. I took almost 400 photos, but here are just a few of my favorites. My dad had fresh Maine lobsters and clams FedExed in overnight. Mom grew up on the coast of Maine and loves lobster and clams. There was also clam chowder, corn on the cob, potatoes, and sausage. We cooked it all outside and had a great time around the fire pit. I don't get to see my extended family that often, so it's always a treat. I am looking forward to the next gathering at my brother's lake house in Florida later in the spring.
