Lindsey's Senior Portraits

"Life is full of people who will make you laugh, cry, smile until your face hurts, and so happy that you think you'll burst. But the ones who leave their footprints on your soul are the ones that keep your life going."
---Natalie Bernot

This says it all about Lindsey and her parents. Lindsey's mom, Cindy, and I use to work together, and we became lifelong friends. I was a bridesmaid in her wedding, my husband and I even went on the honeymoon!!!!! I was there the day Cindy and Keith first saw their sweet baby girl they had just adopted. Lindsey and my son, C.J., have the same birthday. Their footprints have been left on my soul and I am blessed to have them in my life.

Bowman Family Reunion

Family reunions are so much fun, even when it's not my family!!! A friend and fellow teacher asked me to take pictures at her family reunion. It was at her mother's house in Pell City. The setting was so beautiful, apple trees, pear trees, berries, a lake....just perfect. And the sweetest family ever! One sweet elderly man came up to me and said, "I don't believe I know you." Of course I thought about telling him I was Aunt Sara's oldest daughter from her first husband. But I told him I wasn't kin, just the photographer for the day, but everyone made me feel like I was a part of the family.

Cassie Senior Pictures

I didn't teach Cassie, but I did teach her step-brother and step-sister!!! Cassie is a beautiful young lady with a smile that wouldn't quit. She loves space, playing the trumpet, and Winnie the Pooh. We had fun playing in the water at Turkey Creek, we went to the railroad tracks, and finally ended up at the barn and the field. The rain held off until the last few shots.

Amanda Senior Pictures

Where does the time go? I remember Amanda when she was in my 4th grade class, smart as a whip, shy, with a smile that could light up the classroom. She's still the same, except she's not shy anymore. I love seeing former students and seeing the wonderful people they have become.

Gage and Drake

I adore little boys!!!! Maybe it's because I have two boys of my own, but they are just so much fun. These guys were all boy!!! We started out in my yard, my husband got the tire swing down out of the tree so they could play on it. It brought back sweet memories. Then we headed over to the barn and enjoyed the frogs singing to us as the sun set.

Kaleigh Senior Portraits

Kaleigh and I had so much fun during her senior photo shoot.  Kaleigh is an artist and she had some ideas for some of her pictures, and I was happy to oblige.  I knew we had to go to my favorite field for the shots with her painting, and I think they turned out great.  She brought the cute umbrella, and I want one just like it!!!  I enjoyed getting to know Kaleigh better and I know her future is bright with possibilities.  Jeremiah 29:11
