What a Weekend...

Where do I even start? Friday, the man who laid my hardwood floor was supposed to come back and fix some trouble spots. Instead, he came back, got mad at me, and quit. But fortunately, I had some good friends who came and helped me out of the bind! Saturday, we worked like dogs out the studio, and during the day, I get a call that my Paw-Paw was being taken to the hosptial by ambulance because they thought he was having a heart attack! Sunday, I went to Toney, Alabama, to the funeral of a dear sweet friend who was 36 years old and died of cancer, then to a newborn session in New Market, AL, then to visit my Paw-Paw in the hopsital at H'ville (who did not have a heart attack, though they still cannot find what's causing his chest pains), and then to my in-laws' for my father-in-law's birthday supper. Whew... what a world wind. ALSO - WE ARE CHANGING THE DATE OF THE CHRISTMAS MINI-SESSIONS TO SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10; AND YOU STILL HAVE TIME TO SIGN UP!!! Here are a few samples from my session on Saturday. Meet little Gracie. She was such a sweet little ole thing, though she didn't like being naked too much! I think she was just over a week old on Saturday. I'm looking forward to watching her grow over the next year!

Sawyer

Sawyer is now four months old, and boy is he growing like a weed! The last time I saw him, he was less than a week old; and let me tell you - this boy must be puttin' the food away because he has gone from itty bitty to a little ole chunk! I had a great time photographing Sawyer and seeing his mom and dad again! Here are a couple of shots from the day...

Congrats, Ryan & Katie!

Ryan Gass & Katie Marion were joined in Holy Matrimony last night at the Big Sandy Golf Course in Trenton, Georgia. What a busy day shuffling around the greens; but that was made all the easier by the golf carts loaned to us by the staff at Big Sandy! We really appreciate that! And I was also DEEPLY honored to have my good friend Christy Key doing my second shooting for the service! Folks - all day coverage is great for you; but it's AWESOME for me because I get to have a second photographer on scene! Anyhow, here are some sneek peeks of what I captured last night! Katie/Ryan - thank you both SO much; and I'll be in touch soon!

Cades Cove




I just got in from Cades Cove! It was beautiful; but a little warmer than the weather we normally enjoy there. Kellie and the girls are still there; but I had to come home early for a wedding that I am photographing tomorrow. We enjoyed meeting up with our friends, Shannon & Stacey, and their kiddos, Shyanne & Steele! We got some great shots and even had some unexpected guests during our photoshoot, including the big boy in this last shot and two more about like him! I've been camping in Cades Cove for probably 15 years or longer; and I've seen numerous black bear in the park. But I'm not sure that I've ever seen one any bigger than this guy! We kept our distance, watched him for a little while, and then just went out our photoshoot. It was a lot of fun; and VERY exciting!
