Samantha | Spring Hill Franklin Senior Photographer

When I first met Samantha, I instantly knew I was going to love this girl. So I wasn't surprised when the two of us had a blast during her senior photo session. We shot around both Franklin and Spring Hill and dug through about half of Samantha's fabulous wardrobe. Not only is Samantha a gorgeous girl, but it's clear that this is a girl who is completely comfortable in knowing exactly who she is and what she wants out of life. I'm so excited to see what the future holds for Miss Samantha. Thanks for letting me be a part of your senior year!

The Edwards Kids | Franklin Childrens Photographer

The Edwards kids are no strangers to my blog. And I love that fact. Every time I spend a few hours shooting them, my world just gets a little bit brighter. Their beautiful faces, genuine laughter, shining personalities and a strong bond between siblings; it's a household I'm honored to be a part of, if just for a day, every now and then.

As always, Janelle and Craig - it's truly an honor to photograph your beautiful children!

The Spears Kids | Franklin Family Photographer

Ever meet a teenager and think, wow, your mom did an incredible job raising you. You're an unbelievable kid? It happens to me all the time. A joyous hazard of working with teenagers. It's my hope that my kids are equally as wonderful when they're the same age. My friend Lisa has three great teens. And she's amazing at being their mom.

So in order to thank her, these three schemers and I got together for a top secret photo shoot right before Christmas. They were complete pros and I had a blast spending an afternoon with three of my favorite teens. Their mom was completely surprised. Mission accomplished. Yes, Mr. Bond, I do believe you've met your match.

The Allen Kids | Spring Hill Family Photographer

You might not believe me, but I'm not always a fan of surprises. Really, I'm not. It's because it's so darn hard to keep my mouth shut. Surprises are so much fun and exciting that I just want to share them with the world. And being patient is so hard. I'm partially glad Christmas is finally over, because now I can finally share these photos with the world.

Back in November, I was scheduled to shoot the Tankersley family for their Christmas photos. You can view that post here. Melissa called me and asked if I'd be interested in taking pictures of the Allen kids the same day as a Christmas surprise for their parents. Um, yeah. Didn't hesitate at all on that one. Christmas day has come and gone and Matt and Kim now have a gorgeous framed picture of their four children hanging on their wall.

Aren't these kids gorgeous?!? And they're so sweet too! They were such a joy to shoot.

SURPRISE, Matt and Kim!

SHHS Snowball Formal | Columbia Event Photographer

A freshman's first formal dance is practically a rite of passage for a teenager. I was so honored to be asked to shoot a few photos of Savannah and Austin before they headed out to dance the night away at Spring Hill High School's Snowball formal. Here are just a couple of my favorites. You two look great and I hope you had a blast!
