Editorial Work - A Year in Review

I'm just finishing up what is hopefully my last shoot of 2011.  It has been a wonderful year.  I have gotten to know so many people in Jonesboro through my work.  The shoot tonight was for Occasions.  They did a makeover today for a very sweet and very deserving lady.  She looked beautiful! Look for those in the January issue. 
I have thoroughly enjoyed all of my editorial work this year.  Editorial shoots, like commercial, are often interesting and challenge me to work with different people and different settings to convey a particular feeling.  
I decided to post some of my favorite shots from the pages of Occasions this year.  Enjoy!

Raegan & Gavin







I couldn't believe how much these two have grown since last year.  I had a session last fall with them in their rice field and was thrilled to have them back for an urban shoot this fall.  Gavin is a busy little 3 year old, but I managed to catch him in action.  Raegan is such a sweet girl and I know in a few years she will be a heartbreaker.
I really enjoyed our session together!  

Traci & Co.








These were two of the most entertaining kids I have ever had ever had a session with.  Silliness abounded!  That always makes my job easier.  I love how festive they look too.
Thanks for a great session!

Sunkissed Cotton















 








I so enjoyed my time with this fellow cotton farming family.  My husband grew up with Matt, but this was the first time I have had the chance to get to know his family.  They were so sweet and wonderful.  Blaine and Brooklyn were so engrossed with the cotton.  They really made it easy for me to catch some great, spontaneous moments.  I especially love the shots with their granddad, also such a nice person.  He graciously tolerated me and my lens :-).
Thanks for a wonderful session!  I hope I created lots of memories for you to enjoy for years to come!
