Easter Pics Coming Soon!

For several years now, Marty Rogers and I have hosted various holiday mini-sessions in the Big Cove area.  We've covered Valentine's Day, Easter, Christmas, and other random sessions as well.  This year will be no exception!  Our Big Cove sessions are being planned for Saturday, March 2nd; and I love our set this time!
Also, we're going to bring the mini-sessions back home and offer a full day of sessions at my home studio in Flat Rock!  It's been several years since I've hosted a session day at the studio, but felt like this was the right year to bring these wonderful deals and beautiful photos to a location that my friends and neighbors in the North Sand Mountain area can take advantage of!  Our Easter sessions at the studio are being planned for Saturday, March 9th.  Don't miss this amazing opportunity!
If you're interested in learning more about either date, please get it touch with us soon!  We have a limited number of time slots available and they WILL fill up fast!
More to come closer to time!

A Dear Saint Gone Home...

Today we mourn the loss, but celebrate the victory of a dear woman whom I've known for my entire life - Betty Carolyn Lawson Long.  Betty is the wife of my mom's first cousin, Bobby Long, and the mother of Mark, John, and Matt Long.  She was one of the absolute sweetest people I have ever known in my life, and I will miss her hugs and warm smiles.  She has suffered terribly over the years in body; however, her spirit has always remained strong as she managed through life with patience and without complaint.  My heart is with Bobby and the boys today as well as the rest of the family.

The photo with this post is of Bobby and Betty.  I had the priveledge of shooting their family photos a couple of years ago.  She was so proud of her beautiful family, and they all love their mother/grandmother very, very much!
