We meet baby Maddox!

We are always so excited to get a call from our brides and grooms that they have a new family member. We couldn't wait to photograph Maddox, Suzanne and Brad's new little baby boy. He was so bright and alert, and he kept us all hopping.
































None of those sleeping-baby poses for him!


















We had fun, and judging from his little smile, he did too!

Awesome couple / Awesome party!

It was on a particularly clear and cool evening on the grounds of the historic Fillauer House in Cleveland. The late summer sun, lying low in the west shone golden in the treetops and splashed over the old stone walls, lighting the lawns among long, irregular shadows. Cicadas and crickets buzzed softly, hardly noticable beneath the melodies of the stringed quartet playing under the trees. Roses, callas, and hydrangeas were laced in the vines intertwined around the brilliant white pergola set on a bright green lawn surrounded by 360 degree seating. With all family and friends in place and anxiously looking on...



Alexis and Miller got married!!!

































..and what a party they had!

Beautiful Smoky Mountains evening...

I've known Louise a very long time. We go way back!


The last time I was at her home in Benton, overlooking the mountains, I told her that sometime I wanted to photograph her family with those beautiful, blue mountain tops as her setting.

Wow! Did the evening weather cooperate... and Wow, did little Brown manage to hold off the sandman long enough to smile a few times before bedtime... and Wow, we owe Abigail a lot (She got Christin home through I-75 traffic jams and has a very special connection to Brown!)

We're very pleased that these turned out so beautifully and know that Louise is going to love them on her walls!










(Oh, and I think Granbe will love them, too!)
