I've been lucky enough to know the Kelly's for many years. We are members of the same church and aside from being the Mayor of Dallas, James Kelly is also the Bishop in my congregation. We've traveled together on humanitarian relief trips, attended church functions and even enjoyed a Halloween party or two. I was so excited when their daughter Lauren got married and asked me to take some family photos for them! Due to Covid, the couple had to elope in April, but we were able to get some sweet bride and groom photos at their Dallas home a few weeks ago!

This first photo is one of my favorites because Hannah looks like she is sitting in a beautiful field of lush grass for her senior portrait session. But in reality she is crouching between just two landscape shrubs in front of a reception hall. Photography can be anything you make it. People are always worried about the perfect location, but I've shot in parking garages, junk yards, and the grandest of ballrooms. With the right angles and perspective, any location can make a great photograph. It's just in the eye of the photographer to take notice!!

Carmi's sweet family portrait session was a tad chilly, but they all braved the weather for an adorable session! I love how Carmi coordinated the girl's outifts because, you know I LOVE puffy dresses. And I was in love with her fluffy jacket too!!! I love it when clients really put in the effort to make their hair, makeup and wardrobe an important part of their session. It really makes a difference!!!

Tara's family is the sweetest!!! I met them many years ago when I asked two of her daughters to model for me for a photo shoot. Then she asked me to shoot her son's senior portrait session at the beach in Florida. Last year I shot her youngest daughter's senior portrait session here in Atlanta and her two oldest daughters are college grads this year and I got to shoot sessions for both of them at Kennessaw and UGA in Athens. This is the final portrait session this year for her entire family with a few adorable additions!!! I hate to think this is the last time I'll see Tara's family! I see 4 weddings in our future, and lots of baby sessions!!!

I only offer mini sessions about once or twice a year and Christmas time is one of them!!! I don't do them to stay busy. I'm CRAZY busy already with senior portraits and weddings this time of year. I do the mini sessions because I have many long time, loyal clients that I love to see every year and they always book a mini session with me!! I've see these families grow up, some a few years and others many years!! I'm so happy to get to see them because they're not clients, they're friends!!!
