This is the Kimball Family. The Army is moving them from Clarksville off to new fun and exciting adventures. Paige wanted to take some family pictures around downtown Clarksville for them to remember their time here. Paige is a local photographer here and I am happy to have met her even for such a short time. I really loved doing this shoot and I love the real life I was able to capture. Every picture is not about getting the perfect pose or the perfect smile. Some of my most cherished photographs capture the real thoughts or looks of real life. I love the picture of Aidan scratching his foot not caring at all that his mom and dad are kissing in the loft. That shot has a realness to it that I fell in love with. Goodbye and good luck Kimball Family!

This was my first wedding here in Clarksville. I met Chris at the Clarksville Bridal Show in January. Laurel is stationed in DC and Chris had to go to the bridal show alone. What a Good Man! I think that says something about his dedication to his sweet wife. I got to meet Laurel twice before the wedding and once was for their Engagement session. On April 23rd they got married. It was a perfectly small and intimate wedding. Chris and Laurel got married at the Magnolia House Bed and Breakfast on Madison. The weather was perfect for a garden wedding. I love outdoor Ceremonies. I love easy going couples. I love extra time and going places for Bride and Groom Portraits. The get away car was Chris's Hot Rod. With the car being red and Artillery Red in Chris's Army uniform, Laurel decided red was going to have to be the wedding color. Also coincidence that Chris loves Coke in bottles? I love how Chris and Laurel mesh so well. I loved this wedding. Hello Clarksville, I think I love you!

Meet the Taylor's. Clare and her two boys were so fun. I was so happy to be asked to shoot the cover of Clarksville Family Magazine again for May. Clare is a local artist and when she showed up in her painted jeans and told me that was all she really ever wore I knew I was going to love her. She had her late husbands old Superman shirt and the boys wore super hero shirts as well. I love capturing real life just as it is. Real life is beautiful. Be sure to check out the Clarksville Family Magazine!

I am a little behind on my blogging. Sorry! Here is a cutie. Baby Lyla is 3 months old. At this age babies can't really do much and they are not newborn little and sleepy either. What is special about this age is that babies start to see the world and look around and notice where their momma is. Lyla and her Mom are so sweet.

When Jessica and Bryan told me they wanted to take their canoe out for their engagement session, I was beyond happy. I love when couples want to do something different and fun. I loved shooting their session and I loved going down the Red River in their canoe just chatting. They are getting married here in Clarksville this fall. I can't wait!
