Here's where I get all sentimental...

Today, Jackson got his hair cut for the first time.  It was heartbreaking to me because it was just another reminder that my baby is growing up.  Time sure flies when you have kids and this was a big step for me.  I know, I know, it's just a hair cut!  But he's my sweet baby boy and I cherish every moment with him, even if I get sad that he's growing up.  He did great sitting in his daddy's lap.  Tina did really well with his hair too (thanks tina!).  This first picture is the "before" shot.  Yes, he should've had it cut weeks ago, but I had to have time to prepare myself!  No tears shed today, but that was because I was too busy taking pictures.  Thankfully, I take Tina's pictures, so she knew I'd take a million of this "first" moment. 

 First few cuts...

Thankfully, he just sat there and chewed on a (clean) comb...

or his (clean) fingers!

 This one is a favorite of mine...

 Such a good boy...yes boy...because he doesn't look like a baby with his new haircut :)

Mercedes - Sr. Prom 2011

Here is Miss Mercedes, all dolled up for her Senior Prom!  She is one gorgeous girl that has one spectacular dress!  Hope you guys enjoy your pictures.  Can't wait to take her senior pictures soon!

Little Ladybug - 11 months

Boy, did I have fun with this shoot!  She cooperated so well!  James and I are friends with Lynzie's parents and we all go to church together.  I'm so glad they asked me to take her pictures.  As you can see from the pictures, she is such a sweet baby...

Senior - Katie

The following pictures are from my first photo shoot with a high school senior.  I was excited when I was asked to take Katie's pictures. Have a look and leave a comment if you'd like.  Good luck Katie with the last semester of high school.  It will drag on but before you know it, you'll be walking across the field in your gown!  Get ready Tracy...your daughter is all grown up....

The Soon-To-Be Parents...

Another one of my sweet friends is about to become a mommy... The excitement and anticipation shown by this couple is amazing.  Tiffany and I have been friends since childhood.  She and Ross are expecting a baby boy in February.  I cannot wait to meet Baby Travis...and to see these two become parents.  Ross & Tiffany, I thoroughly enjoyed taking your pictures and catching up with you at dinner.  Baby Travis is so blessed to have you as parents.  I hope you enjoy the preview.

This is the church where they were married...

Tanner & Caden

This was one of my favorite photo sessions of all time...these boys kept me on my toes.  They were constantly laughing and cracking me up.  Their mom is one of my co-workers.  She had always talked about her boys, but I had never gotten the chance to meet them.  Thank you Mistie for asking me to photograph your sweet boys.  It was fun, and we got some great shots!

 

The Dickerson's

Here are a few of my favorites from my most recent session.  Thanks Bobby & Cindy for letting me "shoot" your family!  "P" did very well today!  I hope you enjoy your pictures & can't wait to do it again...
