One Awesome Session | Nashville Urban Photography {frogs and faeries}

Aww, man - I had one helluva session tonight! That's right - it was so good that I threw out the "H" bomb! I am so excited and proud to put up this sneak peak and to introduce my new man. Don't worry - I'm still happily married, but I do have a new love in my life - my brand spankin' new Canon 5D Mark II. I am in lust with this camera! I have wanted one since they came out, and finally, I just convinced myself to go and hit BUY! This has probably been one of the best decisions I've made! (I do have a great 40D for sell if anyone is interested!)

Anyway, enough babbling about the awesomeness of my new baby and onto the awesomeness of tonight's session.

Tonight's session was so good that I had to call Mom afterward just to let her know how great the pictures were! I do that from time to time if a session has really rocked my socks off.

Mom called and requested an urban session with her 18 month old. I was super excited because I've not got to work in an urban session much. Urban sessions are known for lots of color and fun settings. I think we accomplished both here by heading to downtown Nashville. We braved the intense heat and were finished in less than an hour thankfully. I think Daddy may have melted away in his crisp white shirt if it had been much longer. :) Just kiddin', Daddy!

If you've been itching for a different type of session, please, please, please give urban a try. It is rockin'!

This one pretty much takes my breath away.

This caused quite a stir downtown. Everyone stopped to tell Ava just how cute she was.
