Pictures, pictures and more pictures!

For those of you wondering how my photography business is going, great is an understatement. I have done several 'couple' sessions, senior sessions, kid sessions and most recent, a bridal session. I love it! Here are just a few shots that are my favorite.

The next thing on my list is to do a wedding. I am so excited about this adventure in my life. Starting in January, I am taking a photography class at the local community college, just for fun. If anything I will meet some people who have the same interest I do.

Just a few snapshots!

I went home this past week mainly for Nana's birthday but also to do some photo shoots! There is no better place than the beautiful mountains of East Tennessee to have as your background  with the leaves changing. First up was the amazing Sandra Swafford. We meet close to her home in Riceville, TN. The camera loved her, so she made my job easy.

There were so many great ones of Sandra, these are just a few. 

 

Love her laugh!

 

 Next up were the Keylon kids. They had almost had as much fun as I did taking their picture! Meet Seth, Jordan and Elijah.

I look forward to doing more shoots!

Almost 1 month!

So I still don't have my 'official' photos from my wedding that's why I haven't posted them, but I'll show you a few pictures that some of my friends took during this blog. The first picture you see to the right is me picking up my dress on my way to the rehearsal dinner. The next picture is a snapshot from the wedding day-this was taken between all the pre-wedding pictures!

On another note, married life is pretty wonderful. It is a change/adjustment to your everyday life. For example, the way you fold your husband's clothes may be different than what he is used to, or the type of food he eats for a snack may be not what you would eat. REGARDLESS, it's just learning to live with another human being that you call your spouse.

I'm not sure this learning process ever ends. Although I may learn what his favorite meal is or when he goes to work out, I may never fully be able to predict his thoughts-which is probably a good thing. I think it keeps things interesting.


In other news, I am starting my own photography company. It's something that I have found a great passion in. I had taken a class in college and really enjoyed it.  As a result, I bought a camera, lens and an additional flash. I feel like this is a great way for me to have an outlet for something that I can easily get passionate about as well as help others capture important memories-or even just show them that they are beautiful.

I'm so excited about this adventure and am looking forward to doing my first six photo shoots this week! I have been taking pictures of nature and this beautiful small town I live in, but people will be a different challenge. Once I take all these pictures and edit them, I will create a facebook page of this "business" and then a website to follow. Here is just one of the pictures I have taken last week.
