Spring Mini Sessions. Oh how we love thee. Yes we realize we are pretty much on the verge of  Spring again and are just now posting the Spring Minis but wedding season happened and Bloom had a baby! Then it was the Holidays and here we are again.

Spring Minis are one of our favorite times of the year. We get to see our past, present and new clients after the long winter season. We get to use live props such as bunnies and or ducks. Maybe this year 2013  it will be a baby goat or lamb! Fingers crossed!

So sit back and enjoy scrolling through these beautiful faces from the Spring Minis of 2012. Those ducks & Rabbits were so very brave!

Get used to this beautiful couple’s face, because you will see them again when they get hitched this coming fall.  We have been trying for months to get a session with these two lovelies, but it seems old man winter and mother nature had other plans for us!  We were all kind of glad the session got delayed because if it were not for the delay…we would not have been able to have this warm and fabulous magic hour lighting that only the spring and summer months can provide.

We met Matt and Rachel at the park and they brought their 3 BEAUTIFUL pups…at first we were like “3 dogs…let’s hope this goes well!”  but these dogs were so well behaved.  They posed like old pros.  The session from beginning to end was filled with laughter, and you can tell in these photos that we all had fun.  We are honored that they have chose us to capture their wedding day too!  We absolutely can’t wait for your wedding Matt and Rachel, it’s going to be SO MUCH FUN!

Hey, it’s Dani here. I am so excited to show you a preview of my friend Melissa’s  maternity session.  Melissa and I have been friends a long time, we met when we were both in school and working at Macaroni Grill serving tables.  It was like 10 years ago (we are getting old!).  Since then lots of things have happened.  We both got through school, quit serving tables, went through break ups together, new boyfriends, new jobs, had more than a few girls night/wine nights over the years.  Melissa met Joe (who I approved of totally!) and got hitched, moved away to Atlanta, got 2 precious dogs, and now they are expecting their first baby.  When she said she wanted me to do some maternity photos, I was thrilled.  Then she said she was bringing her fur babies Blaze and Roscoe, who I had never met, I was super excited!   Those two pups are going to be great big brothers!

Here is a little sneak peek of what we captured of this lovely little family.  Congratulations guys, you all are going to be phenomenal parents…and I can’t wait to meet baby Asher!

She was in a hurry to get here, miss Malyn.  Her Mom, Nina went for a checkup and the doctors informed her to head on down to labor and delivery….it’s time.  She said “But she’s early”, and the doctor said, “But, it’s time.”  So, Nina texted husband Nick and went on down to the hospital.  Malyn entered the world not too long after that, healthy and happy and absolutely beautiful.

Maybe she decided to come early because she couldn’t wait to be with her family.  If we had to guess, that would be the reason.  Malyn’s Mom and Dad are neighbors of Dani’s, and they are truly some of the sweetest people on the face of the earth.  

Little Malyn is one lucky girl.  She also has 6 furry dog brothers and sisters, and they are living together in perfect harmony.  Malyn doesn’t even blink when they bark.  It’s pretty amazing.

 Malyns brothers and sisters.

Congratulations on the new edition to the family.  We are so happy for you all!  Hope you like the sneak peek of your precious little one.

About a year ago, Dani’s husband Anthony met LaDonna at  Wal Mart, she was trying to raise awareness for the Collegedale off leash dog park.  Being dog lovers, as well as photographers…Anthony just knew that we would benefit from knowing her and gave her our information.  He was right, and well…here we are a year later, and we finally got to meet LaDonna!  She graciously invited us to be the ‘puppy paparazzi’ and document the dog parks one year birthday party.

The weather for this event was perfect for humans and dogs alike.  And we were so happy that there was such a great turn out!  So many dogs and owners and kids!  The team behind the event organized a doggy pageant, and gave out ‘doggy bags’ with treats to every pup.  So much fun!  Here is a little peek at the action!
