The Birmingham Botanical Gardens were in full fall color for the first session, which made everything even more gorgeous. The children brought so much beauty with them, and added to the fall colors it was truly a great experience. The second session we started at the Botanical Gardens, but it was so cold we headed to a house nearby to finish them up. Amazing what a few days in Alabama does for the weather.

The Stagner Family
Meeting the Stagner family was great, they are a great family. What made this even more special was it was actually 2 sessions. One for each side of the family. I hope that everyone who received a photograph for Christmas enjoyed it. I know that I enjoyed taking them.

The Key Family Sport's Day
The Key Family is like so many other families including mine, they do sports year round for multiple children. While some see this as a burden many people, including myself, see this as a blessing. Raising children is not an easy task, but it is a gift and one that we should accept and do our best at. This includes helping them to figure out who they are and what they want to be.
Learning multiple sports allows them to walk multiple paths and excel at discipline and coordination. They also learn how to excel socially which is not something that can be taught easily.

Sports are fun and should be. They are a learning experience and a growing experience and should be embraced.
The Key's have an opportunity to have a sports collage made for them from Athletic Arts and this is why they called me. They needed shots of them in the sports that they enjoy the most, three from each child.
This was a great experience for me and they seemed to enjoy themselves as well. I look forward to seeing the final product.

Tammy and Olivia
A beautiful mother and daughter session was the highlight of my Monday after Thanksgiving. Tammy and her daughter were beautiful both inside and out, which makes for a great session as the light inside of them and the love that they have for each other can be seen in each session.
Running the deal on living social has been great for my calendar, but mostly because of the amazing people that I have met from it. Tammy and Olivia are just one example of many.
Olivia arrived all smiles and was that way until the session was over, or close enough that we wrapped it up. She was in great spirits and definitely a trooper as we walked up and down the street.
We chose Morris Avenue for their session. It was perfect for the look that Tammy wanted. It enabled us to get many different looks with only a few steps to go. It also kept Olivia occupied so she was not bored with the everyday scenery.

The Rasheed Family
Tieasha and I have been trying to get together since October to do her family pictures. With the constant conflicts we were so glad when we were finally able to make it happen. I have to say it was worth the wait.
This is a beautiful family and it showed in each photograph that was taken.
We chose Morris Avenue for the location. Tieasha has been wanting photographs here since she moved to Birmingham. When you first see Morris Avenue it makes you stop and think. There is something special about Birmingham. If you have ever been to Charleston, SC this is the only spot around Birmingham that reminds me of there, and Charleston is my favorite place ever! It is just truly gorgeous!

The Patel Family
Getting to know the Patel family has been amazing. The best part is that they are constantly referring me to their other family members and without a doubt a referral is the best form of flattery.
Minali and her boys were visiting from Miami. This photo shoot was in the Highland Lakes neighborhood at different parks.

It was great and I am pretty sure that the boys had a lot of fun. They were able to run around and just be themselves and with children there is really nothing better than allowing them to be themselves and capturing those moments.
If you want to capture your family just being themselves give me a call and we will personalize a session just for you.

The Allison Family
The Living Social Deal that I ran did some amazing things for my client list, but not because I made a lot of money (that is definitely not the case) but it did allow me to meet some very amazing people. The Allison family is just one of these great families that I have been able to get to know. I am hoping that these are not one time clients, but clients that I can continue to work with for many years to come.
This shoot was at the Aldridge Gardens in Hoover. The day was a little overcast, which can be a good thing for pictures. It was a great location giving a great variation for backgrounds.
