Blackman Family

A few weeks ago my brother, sister-in-law, and sweet nieces came into town! Lindsey and Eric are expecting their third little girl in just a few weeks and I had the privilege to take some family pictures and a  few maternity ones as well! I LOVE how they turned out! I am so thankful for them and so excited to be welcoming Baby Sadie very soon! :) Here are a few pictures from our shoot....

Love Charlotte's little face! 

Sweet sisters!

They love their daddy!!

He makes them all laugh..... a lot! :)

She is going to be such a wonderful big sister! 

How beautiful does she look? Seriously. So pretty!!

Pretty girls!!

We also took some pictures of the cousins together...

I mean....how fun is it going to be watching them all grow up together? 

Sweet Sam joined in the fun!Poor Sammy.....he is a little outnumbered!

I love these babies so much and LOVE being their aunt!!

Waiting on Baby Harper

I have known Rachel for a few years and she contacted me about shooting her sisters wedding earlier in the year! I was so excited to find out she wanted me to take maternity and newborn pictures for her in June. We took these on one of the hottest days and this mommy-to-be was such a trooper! Since then, she has given birth to a beautiful baby girl, who I will be sharing soon! :) Here are a few shots from her maternity pictures!

I loved these lily pads! They were huge!!

There is something so beautiful about a mom-to-be! There is so much sacrifice that goes into carrying a child for nine months! Women should be celebrated for all that they go through during those months. These images should be captured and remembered!  Congrats on your new baby girl! I can't wait to share more pictures of her very soon! :)

Baby Helen (newborn)

 Early in June I had the privilege of taking pictures of this sweet baby girl! I was so thankful that her parents let me come and see her! We got some really sweet shots of this baby! Her mommy and daddy were such awesome new parents and definitely were doing so well for the little sleep that newborns allow! :)

How precious is this nursery? Her mommy did such a great job!

Sweet newborn skin, lashes, and lips! Love!

Look at that smile! She is so happy to belong to them! :) Pretty mom!!

Congrats on this precious new addition! Sweet Helen is just perfect!!

Matt and Ashley (married)

I met Ashley and Matt about a year before their wedding. I was so excited when they booked me! After hearing about how they met, dated, fell in love, and got engaged, I couldn't wait. By the time they were officially married in May, they had dated over 11 years! I am certain that it must have felt so nice to be able to wake up that morning and think, "Finally! This is it!" Not only was this couple incredibly precious, but the friends and family that stood beside them on this day were pretty great too! This group had SO. MUCH. FUN!!! I have never seen a group so encouraging, fun, and excited for a couple. It was as if this entire wedding party was thinking, "Finally! This is it!" as well. They loved on this couple and made sure that their day was absolutely perfect! Here are a few pictures from their wonderful wedding day! :)

Lots and lots of this all day long! 

I love that after so many years of being together, there was so much emotion on that day! They chose not to see each other, but even holding his hand, Ashley couldn't hold back the tears!

It poured right before and during the ceremony. Right when it is time for outside pictures, we get a beautiful sky!

How fun is Matt's cake? Loved it!

Amber and Alex (married)

Amber and Alex were married at Magnolia Manor in Mobile, AL. It was such a perfect day! Their families had so much fun celebrating this union and you could just tell that Alex adored Amber! It was such a beautiful wedding and a fun party to celebrate afterwards! Here are just a few images from their special day!

An absolutely stunning bride!

So precious!

Congrats Amber and Alex! Thank you so much for including me in your day! :)

Luke and Mary Kate (married)

Mary Kate and I went to high school together! She was even my doubles partner when we played tennis from time to time! She has such a sweet spirit and an incredible heart! When she contacted me I knew she had just gotten engaged. They had a very short engagement, which I am totally for! :) I didn't know Luke before the wedding day, although I had shopped at his families' antique shop from time to time!

This couple....they were so adorable. From the moment Mary Kate walked down the aisle they could not stop smiling. It was as if no one else was around them. You could tell that even though they only had a few months of engagement, they had waited forever! :) They were just dying to be married! Here are a few pictures from their special day!

Luke has 5 SISTERS! You could tell they all just adored their brother and his new bride!

Such a beautiful bride!

So precious!

Sweetest moments after the ceremony!

He could not stop staring at her! :)

He twirled her all around the dance floor!Mary Kate and Luke, thank you so much for letting me be a small part of your day! It was such a privilege and the Lord was glorified through your ceremony and covenant! Hope married life is treating you well!

Ashley (Bridals)

This girl....Ashley has one of the absolute sweetest spirits! She is seriously one of the kindest people that I have had the privilege of taking pictures of! When I met with Ashley and her groom about a year ago and they decided to book with me I was so excited! They are the sweetest couple and I can't wait to share some from their wedding very soon! But first, I met up with Ashley a few weeks before and we had so much fun taking her bridal portraits! She was a stunning bride and up for anything which is always so fun! Ashley, thank you so much! I had so much fun taking these!!I told you! Her smile is contagious and she is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the inside! :)

Samantha and Jason Wedding

My second wedding of May was a location I had never been to in my own town! It started out a bit rainy in the morning, but by the time we were ready for pictures it cleared up. There was a BEAUTIFUL staircase that we ended up using for many of our pictures! It was definitely a party the whole night and such a fun celebration! Congrats Samantha and Jason! I hope that married life is treating you very well!! :)

Thank you for letting us be there on your special day! We had a blast!

The Moore Family

I was so thankful when Katie contacted me to take pictures of her sweet family! They are the most photogenic group and we all had so much fun! I always love when a family asks me to come take pictures of them at their home! The kids are in their element and I love how personal it is! This family has planted a church in the area and they are such an example of what it looks like to be His hands and feet!  I know...they are SO beautiful!!

And so silly....Thank you to the Moore's for letting me take a few of your precious family!!

Claire (senior)

I was so beyond excited about taking these pictures! We have known this family for a very long time and I was so thrilled to take some senior portraits of Claire. She is so incredibly photogenic and we had so much fun!! I went over to the other side of the bay to take these and I have loved how they turned out!

I told you.....stunning! :)

Claire is a phenomenal dancer and has been dancing her whole life! Her senior recital was a couple of weeks ago, so we definitely had to document her beautiful costume! This was so fun to take pictures in! Congrats on graduating Claire!! Thank you so much for letting me take your pictures!!
