Oh my heart

Newborn Photography in Athens Tennessee

Babies are so much joy, one of my loves.
I enjoy the baby AND the parents … the admiration in their eyes
(that may or may not yet be showing ‘lack of sleep’).
There’s the “Oh My Goodness!” as we ‘bonnet’ or ‘wrap’
and the exclamations at small smiles.
Impossible not to be totally taken with your own blue eyed baby!

Aside from the time needed to take it,
there’s nothing more valuable than a favorite image
that takes you back to a great time of life.
The picture taking process itself makes memories!

We took a series of pictures during Christmas at home with
three babies dressed in red.
We know how it’s generally going to go,
but we don’t do it for “perfect” pictures.
We do it because it’s fun!
We’re spending time together … making a memory.
And we KEEP the memory in living color.

This Christmas some of our kids surprised us by coming home from Guam
with a new baby and we had NO idea they were coming
(we hadn’t spent Christmas together for 6 years).
ALL of those pictures will be valued for years and years to come
and every time we look at them we’ll feel grateful.

Pictures are a LOT of things but most important is ‘memory’.
Get the pictures made. Make and keep the memories!

Theo and his mom and dad are not my kids but they are sure
doing a great job at making and keeping memories!

There’s no end to presentation!
… leather and eco-friendly portrait boxes in soft-as-butter leatherette,
frame styles that are just right, heritage wood or glass
for storage of prints AND mementos.
All can be thought out and designed especially for you!

We need a lot more print and a lot less digital today
prints captured, edited, and printed to beautifully last.
Computers and phnoes are the norm,
but digital files are just an average means of delivery …
in no way secure!
A digital file is yours if you can open it.
Read that again and ask where your
‘absolute favorites’ are sitting right now.
It can be scary!

My promise is to beautifully print every session or wedding,
and we frame or box in such a way that you’ll always want to display it!
