Rice Harvest


 










I love, love, love the first image!  I always try to capture those spontaneous moments, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  In this case, it was a success.  
I first met Georgia and Lance when she was expecting and then I got to meet little Brooks a couple of months later.  I think they are a beautiful family and love that I got to get more shots of Brooks, now that he is a big boy.
When they suggested a shoot in the rice, I was all for it.  I think it makes one of the best backdrops around, cotton being my other favorite.
Moms of the world take note:  When we started our session Georgia had on a brown shirt with jeans and cardy, long necklace and heeled boots.  When we switched locations to the park, she ditched the necklace and cardigan, added a scarf and bangle, cuffed the jeans and put on flats.  The boys changed their shirts and voila.  Now is that smart or what?  I was so impressed, I just had to brag on her a little bit.
Thanks guys!  I really enjoyed our session and I love the results!

Gatlin - A Year in Review












 Newborn
 
6 months

9 months
1 year!

It's hard to believe a year has gone by since I first met Gatlin and his family.  Many photographers say that it isn't a good idea to do a "first year" type of package because if you and the client don't click, well, you're stuck with each other.  I'm sure that could happen, but I have to say I don't feel that way at all.  I have had such a wonderful experience with this family.  It has been such a special privilege to watch Gatlin grow up - from about a week old to walking.  And boy is he walking!  Is there anything cuter than a little baby just starting to walk, and in a pair of blue jeans?  Adorable!
Thanks Gatlin and family!  It has been a great year.
