The Sensational Six | Birmingham Family Photographer

After trying for the last 3 to 4 years, I was FINALLY able to get the sensational six together for a photo. Normally, I miss 3 of the six because I'm either getting to my grandmother's too late, or they didn't come for the holidays. But not this year! It wasn't the easiest shoot. First, we were stuck in traffic forever! Therefore, we lost some very valuable light, which led me to shoot at a higher ISO, which I hate! I see the grain, ugh! Then, they are so silly. While it was fun to see them laugh and love each other so much, umm kiddies, we're loosing light. Then, my silly sister accompanied me, and at one point became the "director"; not. But all in all, it was fun. There are actually a lot more nieces and nephews, these are the six on my maternal side of the family. I wonder how hard it would be to get the paternal side? Hmmm. Until then, here are a few of my favs! Enjoy.

I'm so happy I caught them being silly. Well, except Tyrique. Who told him he was a model? LOL

A'Kiya | Birmingham Holiday Photographer

I had the most fun with A'Kiya yesterday. Talk about adorable! She's everything little girls are made of; you know, sugar and spice and everything nice. She was so easy to work with and not only does she love the camera, but the camera loves her! Here are a few photos from our session.

Edward and Gajarah | Engagement Sneak Peak

I knew my session today would be lots of fun. I've known Gajarah since she was very, very young and she's always had an upbeat, lovable personality (a little aggravating when we were younger). {smile} It's hard to believe she's all grown up and starting a new life with her high school sweetheart and their daughter. Here are few images from our session yesterday.

The Gilbert Family | Birmingham Portrait Photographer

Here's a sneak peek from my session today with the Gilbert Family. Let me tell you about Ms. Bailee. She is the cutest ever! I immediately fell in love with her. She knows just what she wants and she is not afraid to say it. A tad bit of sassiness and lots and lots of cuteness makes me laugh every time. And Jordan is too adorable. Shooting young kids is always so much fun because you never know what you'll get. Thanks again Anitra for allowing me make images of your beautiful family.

Food Project

What started tonight as a simple image for Tumblr became a small food project. The only food I've ever photographed was a dinner I once cooked. I've never really been into making food imagery. But I do like the results. Let me know what you think.
