{BUMPS}

This is the {Bump} of a friend of mine and what an adorable bump it is!  This was my first maternity shoot, and we had a great time (and great weather! The sun decided to show it's lovely face right as we were meeting up.  How lucky were we?).  I LOVE LOVE LOVE pregnant bellies and love taking photos of them!  Pregnancy is such a blessing and a miracle in itself.  Seeing this photo makes me think back on my pregnancy and how incredible the entire experience was.

{Babies}

This adorable little girl is the daughter of a friend of mine.  I went to visit her in the hospital hours after she was born and couldn't wait to start taking her pictures.  It's hard to believe this photo was taken for her 1st birthday!!!  Don't be surprised to see more photos of her and her older brother appear on the blog!

Our {Little} Guy

Our son, Jackson, is my BIGGEST inspiration and my most photographed subject.  This little guy has had his photo taken well over 10,000 times and he's only 1!  Following his dreams and being successful in life are two of the things that I want most for him.  What better way to teach him, than to lead him.  I want him to know that I have followed my heart and persued what I'm passionate about in hopes that one day, he will do the same. 

{Welcome!}

I have officially launched my photography business and I could not be more EXCITED!!! 

This has been a dream of mine ever since I was in high school when I had the opportunity to take a photography class and even produce my own images in a darkroom.  My original dream was to someday build a darkroom in my home.  Now, with all the advances in technology and digital photography, my dream has evolved into running my own photography business and eventually building a studio...

When I first met my husband, I was working full-time at a retail pharmacy.  I was comfortable there, but I knew that it wasn't going to be a lifelong career.  We had discussed photography, but I wasn't quite ready to take that plunge.  I guess I was waiting for the "someday" or the "right time"

Well, TODAY is my "someday" and RIGHT NOW is my "right time"!!! 

I want to thank all of my friends, family, and most of all, my husband for all their support, encouragement, and BELEIVING IN ME!  {Also, for your willingness to let me take your photos!}
