Parker Wade

Today I went to New Market, Alabama, to photograph newborn Parker Wade. Parker is the son of my first cousin, Michelle, and her husband, Wade (hence the name); and he's the first little boy to join my Baby Steps program. Something gives me the impression that he's going to be heavily pursuaded by his daddy to follow Auburn football; but he'll have a tough time with his Alabama mommy and big sister, Emma. Parker is as cute as a button; and we look forward to watching him grow over the next year.

Look for all of Parker's proofs to be available soon!

Happy 50th Anniversary!!

Congratulations, Uncle Jack and Aunt Fay! Saturday will mark 50 years since the couple eloped to Iuka, Mississippi, to be joined in holy matrimony. A reception honoring this major milestone in the couple's life was held Tuesday night (December 19) at the Riverton Holiness Church, near Huntsville, Alabama. The reception was given by the couple's two children - Sherry and John, along with John's wife, Lanier, and their two children - Brittany and J.K.

A large crowd showed up to congratulate Uncle Jack and Aunt Fay, including Uncle Jack's sister and brother-in-law, who came all the way from Uncle Jack's homestate, Pennsylvania!

Byrd Photography was on hand to document the event, and you can view the proofs by clicking on the picture to the left!

Gillian

Three months old already! I spent Saturday at Gillian's house, photographing her for her three month old session (she'll actually be four months old next week). We did a lot of momma & baby shots with Kim and Gillian, and also a few with Daddy (Ross) and grandmother, Cindy.

We spent several hours in this session; but it was time well spent as you'll soon be able to see from all the beautiful images that were captured.

Gillian's turning into a regular little model, as it seems it's time for another of her "Baby Steps" sessions every time we turn around!

Hali-Kathryn

Today I had a visit from little Miss Hali-Kathryn. Hali-Kathryn is one year old; and today was the first time I've had the opportunity to photograph her and her big brother, Haydn.

As you can see in this sample photo, Hali-Kathryn is a beautiful little girl, and was all smiles and ready to play!

Look for all of Hali-Kathryn's proofs to be available on the website very soon!

My Girls!

Yesterday was picture day at the Byrd House! Kellie finished the girls Christmas dresses, which she hand smocked. She spent HOURS on the dresses and did a beautiful job!

Here's one of my favorite pictures from yesterday. I think we'll use this pose for our Christmas Card this year.

After this weekend, I should be finished with all of my Holiday pictures. I had planned on doing more this year; but I was so busy with other things that I just didn't have time to dedicate to Christmas pictures. But hopefully next year I'll have more opportunity and more space to set-up for Christmas!
