Ella Kate is brand new.   She is Matt and Holli’s first and I was thrilled when they asked me to photograph their newborn child.  I haven’t had the opportunity to document the beginning of life for very many people, so I definitely enjoy getting to see how small we all start out.  The details in a newborn’s room are fun to photograph as well because they’re typically vibrant and full of color; also notice there is a seemingly random picture of birds and flowers here. That’s actually a rather large canvas painting that was hand-drawn & painted by Holli.  Here are a dozen of my favorite images. Congratulations Matt and Holli!

 

I recently had the opportunity to spend time with some really good friends of mine and couldn’t turn Chad down when he asked if I could make some images of his family.  We were blessed with some extremely awesome weather & a serene setting just south of Chattanooga, TN.  It really was a perfect Spring evening.
