A Crazy Sunday of Sessions ~ 3 Sneak Peeks!

It was a very successful day of marathon sessions! My day was jam packed with sessions, as people are trying to get their photos taken and edited for the Holiday Season! The day first started out with the Miller Family. We headed over to Rex Mill to get some fantastic family shots of the four Miller's. Next, was a last minute shoot with the Hunt Family. Sweet Kathrine was a trip as we explored my back yard and even had some fun playing in the crinkling fall leaves! And finally, the Pharris Family, who were winners of a drawing I held at Woodland Elementary School's Fall Festival. There are tons of great shots with all families, but I only had time to share one from each. Stay tuned for more....

More McKneely's! ~ Sneak Peek

There is nothing like trying to get your own nieces to look at you and smile for the camera! They know all of my crazy tricks and are "so over" Aunt Erin! But, we had some luck today and managed to get some beautiful photographs of my in-laws, in my yard, after all. Surprisingly, Daddy Jeff is very good in front of the camera, so you would never tell what his real mood was (Just kidding Jeff)! This is a particularly special photograph because in a few short months they will be going from a family of 4 to a family of 5, as they welcome another sweet baby girl McKneely into this world! We are all so thrilled to have her join our wild and crazy, girly princess, hug and kiss-kiss, old McKneely farm family! Love you little one. Oh yeah, and hope you guys enjoy your photos :)

Crum Family ~ Sneak Peek

We had another lovely day of weather here in Georgia and Azure, Christine, their boys and I took advantage! It has been years since this family had taken a portrait together and I was thrilled when they asked me to do it! They all made the trek from Augusta and SC in order to get this done, but I think they will agree that it was well worth the drive. Here are a handful of photos from their shoot. I cannot wait to share the rest!

Holzman Sneak Peek!

Sunday afternoon was another beautiful fall day! The Holzman's and I ventured down to High Falls, GA, south of McDonough, and took in the glorious waterfalls. The boys just loved the outdoor scene and I have to admit, we had a wonderful backdrop for photos. Here is one to hold you over until your gallery is complete!

Pope Family ~ Sneak Peek!

The dark and gloomy skies of Monday held off our original session, but, as I always say... everything happens for a reason! During my session with The Pope family today, we had the most beautiful weather. As you can see in these photos, they have a gorgeous yard and an even more adorable family. The boys, 6 and 7 years old, are head over heels for their baby sister, who is just 1 and a half! This lil sis is going to have it rough when she starts dating! All of the kiddos did a fantastic job smiling for the camera...the trick was to get them all to do it at the same time! We had lots of laughs and I am sure Mommy can confirm that I was acting pretty silly to get them to smile. It was all worth it in the end! Hope you enjoy your sneak peek Pope Family!

The Freund's Fab Five ~ Sneak Peek!

These days it is not common to see a large family, but I had the pleasure of getting to know the Freund's and their five kiddos on Sunday afternoon. We had so much fun hanging out in their backyard, which is so nice and well maintained by Daddy Freund! They made me feel right at home and to be honest I didn't want to leave, as it took me back to my childhood, where we always had a houseful of kids ready to play with each other at the drop of a hat. As we spent time together I felt like I was starting to get to know each child's personality and I hope I was able to capture that in these photographs. Their Mother, Mary, is so deserving of this. I have heard many say, "I just don't know how she does it." Not only is she a Mom to the five kids between the ages of 9-4, with one set of twins who are still at home, she is also very involved in their school and is the PTO President! Kudos to you Ms. Mary...you are doing a fabulous job. I hope you enjoy these photos....

McCoy Family ~ Sneak Peek

Time to unveil my new fave place to shoot....the old Mill in Rex, GA. Who knew that this old place would be a photographers dream?

The McCoy family and I met early this morning to capture a few moments of unscripted fun...along with some posed shots for Mom's mantle! The McCoy kids were a ton of fun and I found myself cracking up at middle child Garrett, as is personality is a trip! It took a minute for oldest Chandler to warm up, but we got some great smiles out of him afterall. And just look at the 'tude on youngest, Syndi. You can tell this little girl has two older bros and she can hold her own! Just check out the first photo for proof!

This family was one of the two winners of the free session I gave at the Woodland Elementary Fall Festival. Thank you for entering and I hope you guys enjoy your photographs! Here are a few peeks for now...
