I know it just turned Fall but it's never too early to think about Santa! I am starting early this year because I have had so many inquiries and wanted to book the best Santa around early.

Santa Mini's will be Sunday, December 1st. Times will start at 11am with 15 min intervals.

$80 for 15 minutes with Santa and 10 images.

What better way to make a comeback than with sweet Chawna's first birthday session. This is one of my favorite families. I am so blessed to have watched the girls grow. Chawna's outfit is the same one that I photographer her sister Cora in when she was 1!!

I am so blessed to still have faithful clients (friends) that have stuck with me during my little vacay but I will be back at it this year. I will be posting more in the upcoming weeks and asking everyone to please share and help me get this page back active. This summer all the favorites will be coming back...fishing mini's, sunflower mini's, watermelon stand mini's and I may even do a late spring chickie session if I have enough interested.

In the meantime, enjoy precious Chawna and her big sis Cora!

You better watch out
You better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why...
Santa Clause is coming to Shannon's house!

I look forward to Santa pictures every year! I have the best Santa too! He is so good and comforting to all the kids. My favorite pictures are the candid ones where they are looking at each other or listening so closely to what he says.

Thank you everyone that has been patient and stayed with me through 2023 while I stepped back to enjoy being Gamma. 2024 I will be back at it, better than ever!!

"SANTA...I KNOW HIM"

I will be doing Santa Mini's this Sunday starting at 10AM. If anyone is interested, please get with me ASAP so I know how long to book him for. He is a very busy man with all the toy making!

Doing Santa mini's means so much more know! And anyone who has done them with me knows I have the most amazing Santa! I started using him during COVID in 2020 because I wanted a Santa that my niece and nephew could actually touch. And he was so good and so kind, I think he may be the real Santa.

I can almost tell you the exact day I met Stephanie, and we became fast friends. Her family is just one of those amazing, loving, special families that once you meet you will forever remember. How gorgeous is this family!? And sweet Moma, I swear she hasn't aged a day since graduation. I loved spending the afternoon with them, even if it was cold and drizzly!

Hey everyone! I know its been a while since I have posted anything. I kinda enjoyed just being Gamma a little too much lol! But I am gearing up to go full force again! I do love getting to be creative and what better way to be creative than with this gorgeous senior!! Allie was so much fun to take pictures of. I just love every single picture we took!! We could not have asked for prettier fall foliage either. Jessica Thacker Hindman

What better way to end the 4th of July than with beautiful Briley Kate!! I knew I was going to love the heirloom pictures and BK did amazing! Her beautiful eyes and smile with those curls! I haven't hand tinted images in years, but I fell right back in love with the effects of hand tinting.

Before I get in to all the fun summer minis like Creek Mini's, Watermelon Mini's, Sunflowers and more, I wanted to offer this very specialized session. These are different from my normal mini by way of there isn't an allotted amount of time and you won't receive a huge gallery. These are classic pictures that take a good deal of skill and time in photoshop. I will be back to offering the regular mini sessions in the middle of July!

Look how gorgeous this momma looks! Her boys love her so very much and are going to be the best big brother to their new sister. This was my first venture to The Secret Place this year and I can tell you right now, I will be back really soon. It is almost as beautiful as this momma up there right now.
