Senior Portraits and Thanksgiving!!

It's been about a week or so sense I have updated the blog, so here we go. A couple weeks ago I was able to take some senior portraits of a long time friend and a student in our youth group. She has grow up to be an amazing woman who is sold out to the Lord. Beckah, Julie (her mom) and I went out to a horse farm out in the country. Not only did we get out there at the perfect time of day, but this place was absolutely beautiful. Sometimes I go to new paces that are amazing and I don't know where to start shooting, this was one of those location. I just wanted to hang out and enjoy the surroundings, but that's not why we were out there. I thought I would get a couple of these photos up before Thanksgiving took over. Speaking of, I am excited to be spending Thanksgiving here is Nashville. It's not something I get to do often. I'm usually at home in Indiana with the family. But I'm a bit jealous of my sister and mom, they are going to the circus (for those people out there who have not been to a circus, you are really missing out). It is one of those strange Thanksgiving half traditions we have. Anyways, I will be spending the day with the Roe's and the clan of people they invited to their place. I'm sure there is going to be a bunch of amazing food, a lot of laughter, football, games and napping...sounds like it will be a great holiday!!

Tenpenny Family

Had the opportunity to take family portraits for some good friends, Keith and Debbie Tenpenny. They not only wanted family portraits but they wanted images of them for their new life coaching business they are in the process of starting. Halfway through editing these images I realized the Keith was super blessed to have such a beautiful family. His boys really surprised me. When we got to our location they took off. But they were location scouting. They both found spots where they wanted their photos taken. Not only were they super proud of their location but they really wanted their photo taken in THEIR spot. It was awesome. For a good portion of the time we were sitting on the ground throwing leaves all over each other, classic for the fall. We ended the shoot with me just taking photos of the two of them. They said that was the first time sense their wedding that they had a photographer spend personal time photographing the two of them. Hope you enjoy the photos!!

Holly Tree JAM Family Picnic

Had the opportunity to do a family photo booth at the most recent Holly Tree JAM Family Picnic. I had a blast taking photos of all the families and kids. It's always fun when you are at a picnic and the adults are eating dinner the the kids are running around because they have all had to much sugar. Now that might just be something I enjoy because I don't yet have kids, maybe some day I'll understand. At one point i turned around and there was a little girl playing with a bubble machine and I snapped a couple shots and they are super cute.

The Tipton Family

Last week I had the privilege to shoot Link, Maria and Lendon Tipton. They are a super cool family and they live just around the corner from me. I met them at their place just before sunset and we reaped the benefits of beautiful light from an amazing sunset. They have a small creek that run through their back yard and just over it is a beautiful field with great trees. Lendon and all of his energy was loving the open fields and I think i was able to capture his energy. Link and Maria own a super creative business called Blue Nova Designs. One element of Blue Nova Events is their beautiful and creative draping for weddings. It's amazing what they can do with fabric. Anyways, i had a blast with the family and I hope you enjoy the photos. Click here if you would like more into about m family photography.
