Sean and Leah get hitched!

Well, they finally did it!  I couldn't be happier for my little brother and my new sister-in-law!  Congratulations to your new little family!

Smoky Mountain Music Student Program

The students and teachers at Smoky Mountain Music got to strut their stuff for parents and other spectators yesterday during their program performance which they held at Saint Raphael’s Episcopal Church on Sparta Highway. Students proudly showed off their budding talents on instruments ranging from the piano and saxophone to the violin, guitar and even a banjo! Studio owner Lourdes Dunaway (Piano, voice, guitar)and teachers, Michael (violin) and Jesse Brist (Guitar) played along side their students during the program and gave the students the opportunity to show everyone what they've been working hard to learn. The teachers also performed with each other and with special guests and gave the audience a well-rounded delightful show. As a parent of one of the students, I can honestly say I can't wait for the next program! If you are in the Crossville, TN area and are looking for musical instruction, I highly recommend Smoky Mountain Music. You can contact Lourdes Dunaway at (931)-456-9290 or swing by her studio at 332 Thurman Avenue Crossville, TN 38555 (behind the courthouse)

Katie and RJ { Prom 2012 }

I've known Katie since she and my little sister became best friends in elementary school and now she's a freshman and going to prom with her beloved, RJ. *Sigh* As much as I can't believe it, all my kids (yes, I claim them all, lol) are growing up and it won't be long before I'm photographing her senior portraits. I had a blast with Katie and RJ doing their prom pictures! She looked absolutely gorgeous and RJ looked pretty dashing as well! Thank you kids for letting me be a part of your prom experience!

Joshua and Georgie { Prom 2012 }

These two are one of the cutest couples I've ever had the pleasure of photographing. The emotion expressed between the two in each picture is completely real and tangible and enough to make any girl's heart melt ♥♥. I thoroughly enjoyed each and every minute of this session and can't wait to photography Georgie for her senior portraits!

13 going on 30

I am now the mother of a teenager...a teenager! No matter how many times I say it, it just feels weird. I don't remember him growing up this fast! Where did time go?? I'm sitting here shaking my head in disbelief that my 'baby' is, in fact, pretty darn grown up - or well on his way, at least, lol. I'm pretty proud of the young man he's becoming, though, and definitely proud to be his 'mommy' (He hates when I call myself mommy to him, lol)

Red Riding Hood

Little Red Riding Hood was always one of my favorite stories growing up.  When it first occurred to me to do a themed shoot, RRH was one of the first ideas to pop into my head.  I, of course, plan to do a whole series of themed shoots since I had such a blast with this one :)  Kalei was an awesome model - absolutely gorgeous - and will be featured in future sessions too!
