Baby Mason {Savannah, GA Newbor Photographer}

What a sweetie this little guy was. Took about an hour to get him good and conked out (all the more
reason for me to get in some snuggles) but once he was asleep, I don't think a freight train could have stirred him! I hope to see a lot more of this handsome man in the future.

Lesson Learned. {Statesboro, GA Newborn Lifestyle Family Photographer

Getting my images ready for Evy's 1st year album, and I came across this one. ♥ You'll have to forgive my sentimentality this morning, but her birthday is just around the corner and this picture is so special to me for a number of reasons. One, of course, it is of me and my precious girl, at only a few days old, taken by my husband. I can still feel how tiny she was in my arms back then. Secondly, it's because I may never have gotten to see this memory. Back in December, my hard drive crashed, and with it a ton of the first photos ever taken of Evy's life. Through the magic of data recovery, I was able to salvage the folder, and found this image. Lesson for today **back up your photographs** Please, I beg of you. I don't think I have ever felt such a sense of panic as when I thought those memories might be lost forever. Also, GET YOUR PICTURES OFF YOUR COMPUTER PEOPLE!!!! Print them, hang them, put them to use!! This is a BIG reason why a lot of photographers don't sell digital images. They end up on your *perishable* hard dives and never see the light of day. I am determined to correct this in my household. And I hope my clients, disc or not, have those memories displayed in a tangible form. I am so glad this picture made its way back to me. And at this very moment, it is on order, on its way to my wall, where it belongs.

Ava Grace {Savannah, GA Newborn Photographer}

I have known Kim for a few years now, and was tickled to to death when I heard she was expecting, even more excited when she asked me to do her daughter's newborn photography! We broke this session up in to two pieces (lifestyle photography and traditional newborn photography) So I was lucky enough to get to visit this sweet girl twice! I thoroughly enjoyed both visits. Ava sure is one  loved little girl.

Double the Blessings {Alma, GA Newborn Photographer}

When I found out Nick and Jennifer Overstreet were expecting twins, I was as overcome with joy I believe as when I found out Evy was on her way. I cannot say that I know of two babies on this earth that are as loved, were as prayed for and welcomed into this world as Knox and Maddox. These babies are as blessed to have Nick and Jennifer as mommy and daddy as I'm sure they feel to have them in their lives. So before I get too wordy and weepy, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. ;) Nick and Jennifer were sweet enough that they have me signed on for the year!(Yey!) So you'll be seeing lots and lots of these precious angels!!

HAHA!! Bothers will be brothers....

Baby Olivia {Metter, GA Newborn Photographer}

You first met this family back in November, while Miss Olivia was still in her mommy's tummy. Brandy was one of the very first people to jump up when I started my photography venture and her trust to now capture the first year of her baby girls life means more than  can say.   I absolutely adore her family. Matt and I are so lucky to call Rhett and Brandy friends of ours. The newborn session was an adventure to schedule! Mother nature sent some *crazy* weather that week, and so we ended up breaking the session into two times, and wouldn't you know it, sweet Olivia was an angel both times. Her big brother Zach was such a big help, even reminded me to wash my hands! ;) Already looking out for his sweet baby sister. I have a LOT of favorites from this session, so be prepared. Congratulations to the Youngblood family, see you again in a few months!!!

Sweet Miss Marley {Statesboro Newborn Photographer}

I love everything about newborn sessions. The light, the pace, the attention to detail. Recently, there has been a bit of debate amongst photographers about the 'type' of newborn sessions are best. The more 'posed' portrait type with blankets, props and such or the 'lifestyle' type, which depicts the experience in real time of life with a newborn, with parents and siblings. True to my personality, I can't decide.  I like both! :) and since my "studio" travels with me most of the time I say why not give my clients the best of both worlds? I love the ooey gooey cuteness of sweet hair bows and a matching blanket, but I also know that those family moments with a brand new baby are fleeting and are to be treasured. So I do both. It thrills me to death to capture the interaction between mother and child, and the session with Marley and her sweet mother, Courtney were just so amazing.  Marley was almost 5 weeks old at the time of this session, so I was a tad nervous, but let me tell you, she was an *angel*. I had an awesome time just hanging out and could have taken pictures of this little nugget all day! Congratulations to the Sharpe family!!
