Brand New | Middle Tennessee Newborn Photographer

Oh, maybe my last newborn of '08. I'm already having withdrawals!

Baby Houston (love the name by the way!) was two weeks old and just barely 7 pounds. He was so good! And so smiley! I think maybe he was secretly laughing at how much poo and pee-pee he could get on me and his parents! All in a day's work, right? :)

Mom and Dad - thank you for letting me photograph your precious gift.


Look at how Houston is holding onto Daddy's finger! Oh, I'm swooning here!

Cutie Pie Lane

It doesn't seem like it's been that long since Lane came to see me for his 6 month session, but here he is again for his 9 months! And so, so, so cute! I am such a sucker for a boy with dimples!

Oh, how I love newborns!

Early this morning, I traveled to Eagleville (and as luck would have it,got stuck in their Christmas parade. Agh! But that's another story . . .) for my youngest newborn yet. Madison Claire is a sweet 4 days old! And oh, so precious! I had such a great time. Madison was the perfect newborn, and her parents and grandparents were just the best. I am already in love with so many images from this session. I can't wait for Mom and Dad to see them all. It won't be long, I promise!

Thank you for letting me come into your home and photograph your beautiful daughter.

If I was really good at the computer, right now, I'd have Holly Dunn's "Daddy's Hands" playing because of these next images. I'm in LOVE with them!!!

Just had to share!

I just finished creating this storyboard, and I just had to share it with everyone!

Baby Tristan's nursery is done in similar colors and polka dots, so I couldn't keep myself from designing a storyboard that would be perfect for her!

One of my clients is a very talented artist, and this storyboard reminds me of her work. Go check out her blog at http://melissajackson-initialdesigns.blogspot.com/ .

Weekend Sessions

Here are some from my weekend sessions which were quite opposite from each other. One was a chunky monkey nine month old, and the other was a precious premie who is just barely over five pounds!

Saturday Sessions

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and has recovered from all the food! My family finished up our last Thanksgiving meal yesterday afternoon, so needless to say, I'm all turkeyed out!

I had two great sessions on Saturday with a beautiful almost three month old. It feel like I just did her newborn session days ago!

My second session of the day include a beautiful extended family of a great girl that I used to teach with. They are such a fun family! They didn't even mind that I stepped in a little dog poo! :)
