hey friend,

i have discovered 2 things about myself this week:

1. i love some Sufjan Stevens

2. i love some Jose Gonzalez.

look them up...thank me later :)

there's been lots of photos this week!

maybe not lots that were taken, but lots that were finally finished by myself.

i did have the opportunity to take photos of the lovely Bush children and was also able to do maternity photos for 2 of the coolest people i know (Jeremy and Meredith)!

here are a few different sessions in no particular order...

the beginning of May starts the wedding season for me!

i am very blessed to have some awesome people ask me to do their photos...

i will actually be photographing a fellow photographer's wedding (no pressure). he has given me complete freedom...however, i will be carrying around about 6 different cameras. haha. no - really.

have an awesome week! 

i am headed to the beach tomorrow :)

hoppipolla

the bush kids!

i took photos of 2 beautiful children today!

they go by the names of Davis and Ella :)

we headed out to my great aunt's home on the bluff...she is so wonderful to let me use it all the time!

these two were so easy to photograph and have huge personalities!

these photos made me smile..

@ the beach

i had the opportunity to take photos of a really fun family the other day at the beach.

they hadn't ever had the opportunity to all be together in Savannah, so this was pretty awesome for them.

did i mention that some of them were from Connecticut and insisted on the beach for the location? :)

here is a photo that made me happy..

published.

hiiiiii

so...lovely news. 

i have been published!

i shot a friend's wedding in the Atlanta area, and a photo was selected by Points North magazine to use for the wedding section of the April issue.

oh happiness!

the photo was printed in color, but here is a black & white copy:

i haven't had the grandest week, so this made me happy :)

here is a link to a glimpse of their April issue:

i took photos at Tybee today, so i will blog with those soon!

one day without shoes.

happy haas'

i am probably the most fortunate person ever.

i mean, probably not...but in this case - i am :)

Blake and Allison Haas are 2 of the coolest people i've ever met, and i got to take their pictures today!

they are headed to Russia for 2 years for mission work, and needed a photo for their prayer/info card.

i am going to miss them :(

no really...a LOT.

these photos pretty much reflect their personalities :)

i love you guys!

have fun following the Lord!

Though I am free and belong to no man, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible.
