{H} Family OpLove | Clarksville, TN OpLove Family Photographer

"Give me some SASS!" That seemed to be the theme saying for this entire session. This family was just too cute and way too much fun!

Thank you, Daddy H, for your service to our country. I hope you guy enjoy your sneak peeks and treasure these memories we shared. Thank you for allowing me the privilege of capturing these memories for you. <3





Happy Fall, Y'all! :)


And, one last one....Daddy's Angels.

OpLove {C} Family | Clarksville, TN/Fort Campbell, KY OpLove Photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting this fun little family yesterday evening. The boys were super cute! Big Brother {S} reminded me of the song "All I Want for Christmas" every time he broke out in a grin (you'll see why in a minute).

Thank you, {C} family, for allowing me the pleasure of capturing these memories for you before Daddy heads overseas to protect our country and its freedoms. Your service and sacrifice is greatly appreciated.

Poor mom is outnumber - even their pup is male!


Big Brother


Little Brother


And, just for fun!

{W} Family OpLove | Clarksville/Fort Campbell OpLove Photographer

Their story is amazing; their love even greater. The {W} family is fun-loving and a joy to photograph. These two honored me by allowing me to photograph them before Mr. W heads over to the sand box once again. I had fun with you two, and I hope you enjoy your little peeks into our session.

Mr. W, we'll be praying for travel mercies for you and for the Lord to place a hedge of protection to bring you home safely to your bride.

{L} Family OpLove | Clarksville, TN OpLove Photographer

This weekend I had the pleasure of giving back a little to those who sacrifice so much for us. I am proud to announce I am an Operation Love Reunited photographer - and this beautiful family trusted me enough to capture precious memories before their Soldier heads over to the sandbox.

And, man, what a gorgeous family! Stunning blue eyes to go around - watch out for the girlies when little man gets older. :D

Notice some changes going on?  I'm trying to update the look of the blog little by little.  I hope to have everything complete very soon!


In the mean time I wanted to test out a post and add a photo with the new (bigger) sizing option.

Cross your fingers this works!

{Expecting} | Clarksville, TN Maternity Photographer

I was told before taking this Mommy out that she didn't photograph well. I think she lied to me, or maybe she just never had the right person telling her what to do. *wink*

I personally think {D} is a gorgeous expectant mommy. I can only hope these photographs can express her beauty enough. Thank you for allowing me to capture this precious time in your life. I can't wait to meet the little guy when he arrives!





This little dude gets to have a big brother and big sister to come home to. Big Sis tagged along with us this evening and hopped in a few portraits. Here she is holding her little brother. I think she's going to be a second mommy to this little man.

{Busy, Busy, Busy!} | Clarksville, TN Child and Family Photographer

Meet Miss {M}. This little lady will be turning two later on this week, so she stopped by this weekend to have her portraits taken. She brought along Mom and Dad as well and let me take a few of them all together.

I titled this Busy, Busy, Busy! because if you're a parent, you know how busy two year olds can be. Miss {M} did not disappoint! She was so much fun to watch just running around, giggling. She even came up with a pose from the sneak peeks - "Kiss!"

Hope you enjoy them, Mom and Dad!

{Little Brother} | Clarksville Newborn and Child Photographer

If you have had the pleasure of having a son, you know that little boys tend to be curious little creatures. This is oh so true of newborns as well!

Little Mr. {A} was so alert and observant for me today! It was super fun, though, because I got to see lots of his baby blues. Big Sister {A} came along as well and let me play with her just a bit in front of the camera as well.

I hope you enjoy your sneak peeks, Mom!

Just love this visor beanie by Jacklyn at AngelBeez!


He did finally close his eyes and show how cute he is when he sleeps, too! Love those lips!


And, Big Sis!

{Boutique Clothing} | Clarksville, TN Child Photographer

My little dollie and I went out exploring today trying to find the perfect location for her to "model" a fun outfit made by Tazetta.com.

This darling little outfit features a denim skirt embellished with fun ribbons and a long-sleeved shirt with a cute little embellished ribbon flower at the neck line. It is super cute!







An up-close look at the details. :)

{So Tiny} | Clarksville Newborn Photographer

Today I got to meet the sweetest little man ever. Mr. {K} was the youngest baby in front of my camera other than my own little lady. I just love when they come so young and so SLEEPY! {K} was the PERFECT model - he slept the entire time and never once peed or pooped!! Woot! It's a first time for my "studio."

Thanks {L} family for allowing me to share in this precious time of your baby's life. I hope you enjoy your sneak peeks from today's session. Your little dude is one blessed baby to be a part of your family. <3

Can't you just tell he's well loved?

Cousins! | Clarksville, TN Child and Family Photographer

My sister came to visit me this past weekend, so of course I had to try and get some portraits of our kids together. We haven't had a group shot of the cousins since Ian was 6 months old! It's about time it happened - there's two more cousins now!!

For now, here are the big girls and the boys together. I've got some head/eye swapping to do for the group shot. Ever tried to get a cranky newborn and 4 youngun's to cooperate all at the same time? It's a workout, I assure you!

A Fun Pair | Clarksville, TN Family Photographer

Meet this Mom and Son duo. They were super cute together - lots of fun to go around. Mr. {J} was a good sport about things, but he finally gave me a big huge smile when I picked my nose or asked him to jump. :D

Thanks for enduring my goofiness and traipsing around all over. I hope you had fun and enjoy your sneak peeks.

Ole Blue Eyes | Clarksville, TN Child Photographer

Meet Mr. {H}. He has the most gorgeous baby blues that would even give good ole Frank a run for his money. {H} was fun this afternoon, and he played along with me and my crazy self quite well.

I hope you like the sneak peeks, Mom. ;)
