Ella, Mia, and Sophie | Middle Tennessee Photographer

Oh my goodness I love these girls. Sophie was a baby the first year we did Christmas photos. Now the fact that Sophie runs to me and gives me a big hug any time I see her, well that makes me very, very happy. They are three of the most beautiful girls ever, and I love that they can be themselves around me. Their mom and dad are pretty special to me, too.


The Franks Family | Middle Tennessee Family Photographer

This year I went a little different direction with Christmas Card Mini-sessions. I used a location I haven't used for Christmas minis before, but since I haven't been shooting much this year, I didn't go with a Christmas theme. I wanted this to just be an opportunity for some of those clients who have been with me from the start to have an opportunity to get some family images this year.

 All of the families from this year's sessions I consider my friends. The Franks are one of those families.

Watt a fun family!

Fun! That is the one word that comes to mind when I think of this family!

When Karen and I discussed location she said she wanted something in the country.  I was so excited to find this new spot for her. It is part of a farm I have used several times, but I had never used this exact spot. It is my new favorite! 

Karen and Brian have two girls and one boy just like we do. I could relate to the fun chaos of their family. :-) It was fun to see the different personalities in their kids very much like our three kiddos.

Cora is the oldest and the most reserved of the three.  Such a sweet little lady.

Mae seems to be more of a free spirit.  She can also run very fast and demonstrated her speed for me several times during the hour we were together. And would you just look at those eyes?! Beautiful!

Bert is all boy, and is constantly on the go.  He is very into Cars right now and is apparently obsessed with tractors. That was all he talked about.  Actually all he talked about was the tractors falling down (being tipped) in Cars. He was so fun!

We did slow him down for a minute for a family shot. Well, his dad did have to lift him up on his shoulders! I do think this is my favorite family shot. I love the way Mae is holding her dress. :-)

Here is another favorite of Mae.

And one of the sweet sisters together.  They really are the sweetest girls.

Fun, fun, fun! That is what we had. Despite the heat we laughed and laughed. Brian and Karen you are so blessed! Your children are precious and they are blessed to have the two of you as parents. Thank you so much for letting me capture these moments!
