Please Excuse the Mess!

The babyfeet photography blog is currently under construction so please excuse the mess.  Feel free to look around.  I hope to have things cleaned up by the end of the week.  Thanks!

Her Feet

I love the following photos!  They were spur of the moment shots that will probably be my favorites for a long time.

A friend from church emailed me the other day and asked me if I would replicate a picture she saw for a project she's working on for our Church's upcoming Father/Daughter dance.  It's called "On Daddy's Toes" and is a picture of a baby girl standing on her father's toes in a tutu and leggings.  I said yes and quickly called my new friend, Sarah, who is also the wife our new worship leader.  She has a daughter the age of the girl in the picture and I figured she would also have a tutu and some leggings.  She did!  She then called her hubby and asked if he would model with his daughter and he was more than willing.  We met at our church the next morning when he arrived for work and took some shots in the sanctuary.  I'm pleased with how they turned out.

 As I was figuring out what my settings would be, Sarah was standing in front of me so I took some shots of her feet for test shots.  I always get rid of my test shots because they're usually not worth keeping, but I loved what resulted.  The perspective to me is unique and makes quite a statement about her.  I love it!

The Benton Boys

I had a shoot back in December that was near and dear to my heart.  This sweet mom made a brave choice and has two beautiful little boys as a result.  She chose life when the world said she had the right to terminate these pregnancies.  I could feel her love and joy for these little guys throughout the shoot and I know that she's happy with her decisions in spite of the inconveniences and whispers.  This is why I do what I do.  I get to help families tell their stories and capture memories for them for years to come.  I am very blessed.

 

 

 

 

Baby on the Way

My younger brother and his wife are expecting baby #2 at the end of this month and I am so excited!  I'm excited because we're going to have another baby in the family and also because it won't be coming from me!

I had the privilege of taking some maternity shots of my sister in law last weekend.  We kept it simple, yet creative by staying at her house and using party supplies from her baby shower that was just after the shoot.  It was laid back and we had a great time.  The perfect shoot!

Sneak Peak

Here's a sneak peak of today's photo session I had with these two little guys and their beautiful mama!  I'll post more as soon as I get them edited.  These just needed to be shared!

Family Pictures-The Bailey's and Wilkerson's

 My best friend and I, along with our husbands, took our kids to a local river this weekend to take family pictures.  The scenery is gorgeous anytime, but especially this time of year.  Between our two families there were 4 adults and 10 kids.  It was wild and crazy, but lots of fun.  We've been trying to pin down a date for a long time to take her family pictures, but have been unsuccessful.  This weekend, however, we were able to get both families together so that she could be the button pusher for my family photos and I could take hers as well.  We've been best friends for almost 10 years and our kids have grown up together so this was also a great time to take some pictures of the kids together as well as very special.
