Mr. & Mrs. - Jellico Wedding Photographer

I photographed this wedding for a sweet young couple on the 18th. I had a blast, the bridesmaids were hilarious! You know who you are! LOL!! Here are a few...hope this will tide you over til I finish! And as always leave me a comment, I like to know what you think!

New Family Members

Meet the two newest members of our family. Sadie and Sissy....Basset Hounds. Our son has begged for a dog for as long as I can remember. Our last dog Mollie (R.I.P.) unfortunately had a car accident and my son was sooooo upset. She was a sweet dog....very hyper....but sweet. We missed her terribly, so we went on the look out for another dog.
This time I had a few requests....they must be LAZY and small!!! My husband's brother and his family have a Basset Hound named Sally!! She is so sweet and my son loves this dog....he gets down on the ground and loves and pets on this dog. She just sits there and lets him. So I decided that was what kind of dog we needed.....lazy and easy going.
After looking for a couple of weeks we happened upon an ad on-line. The ad said they had 2 female Basset Hound puppies that were born in March. We contacted this person and made arrangements to go meet and pick out a puppy. When we got to the meeting place the owners brought these two dogs in a small cage together. They were thin...very thin....so thin you could see their ribs and back bones. The owner states that the mother dog was eating their food. Our hearts went out to these dogs and my husband asked what would they take for both of them. SOLD!!
I took the dogs to the vet and since I couldn't get proof from the owners on any vaccinations....we had to start the shots and they were checked for worms and well.....they had them that was one of the reasons they were thin. We have given them their meds and been feeding them lots. They both seem to have put on some weight. They play now and seem to be feeling much better. Sadie is the friendlier of the two and Sissy is the nosier of the two.

Miss "K" Senior Session - LaFollette Senior Photographer

This is Miss "K", you've seen on here before I did her prom pictures. She is a senior at CCHS this year and after graduation plans on attending ETSU for a degree in elementary education. She is beautiful and very photogenic. I had a great time at her session, even though it was so HOT outside we managed to cool off in the car between locations. Thanks for waiting so patiently for your sneak peek.

The very last black-n-white picture at the bottom is my absolute fav!!!

"Z" Sisters - LaFollette Family & Children Photographer

I recently did a session for a good friend of mine and her girls. They are our neighbors and my son loves to play with the girls. I was afraid that we were going to get rained out for this session, but the clouds cleared up and it actually turned out to be great session. Well.....except for the mosquitos. Mom you have beautiful girls and thank you for letting me photograph them and being so patient with me to get a few sneak peeks for you look at. I am working deligently and should have all the editing finished in a few days.

Newlyweds - LaFollette Wedding Photographer

You might recognize this couple, I did their engagement photos a few weeks back. They are a very sweet couple and I had a blast at their wedding. It was held at the Wedding Chapel in LaFollette. Cute little Chapel if anyone is in the market for a wedding location. The reception was held at Mountain Creek Farms, which I highly recommend. I took so many photo and finally have narrowed it down.....here are a few that I have finished. To the bride and groom I promise I am diligently working to finish, but for now here are a few for you to enjoy. I will post more as I complete them.

Miss "O" - East Tennessee Newborn Photographer

SNEAK PEAK! Here is lil miss "O". She is 10 days old and as cute as a button. When she first got here she was wide awake and looking around at everything. After a bottle she went to sleep and we started the session. I was so excited to get to use my headbands and hairbows! There are lots more pictures to see, thanks mom and dad for being so patient. I will have the rest ready soon.

Beach 2010 - Part I - East Tennessee Photographer

This year we went on vacation with my husband's family. We went to Charleston, SC. It was sooo beautiful, but sooo HOT!! We stayed in The Isle of Palms. Our motel was right on the beach with restaurants and shops within walking distance. I would recommend this area to anyone. We got there on July 4th and well.....there were so many people they were practically walking over each other and after the ride there I was ready to go back home. LOL! Everyone was there just to see the fireworks and it wasn't that crowded the rest of the week. This was my first time being at the beach on the 4th and getting to watch the beautiful fireworks. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the fireworks. Just take my word for it....they were beautiful. I was excited to see how excited my son was...getting to watch the fireworks at the beach!! The night before we left we took some pictures on the beach. Here are a few of the individual shots of the kids. I have lots more to edit.....I am so behind. There will be a Part II. Keep you eyes peeled! :)


While we were there we went to the "Magnolia Plantation". Here are a few shots I took of my son! Isn't he just the most handsome little boy you ever saw?? :)
