The lovely and talented Sarah B. Gilliam has graciously offered to organize area photographers in a benefit for the flood victims of Middle Tennessee. We're excited to participate and want to ask you to help spread the word!
In Sarah's words:
After the flooding in our wonderful state, I'm sure many of you want to help those affected by flood. Maybe you have already, or are unable to roll up your sleeves or you were affected, too.
Please join me, my favorite ice cream shop- Pied Piper Creamery and my fellow photographer friends in a benefit for the victims of the flooding.
The sessions are 20 minutes (booked every 30 min) from 9 AM- 5 PM on Saturday and from 10 AM-6 PM on Sunday.
100% of the proceeds will go to the Nashville Area Red Cross and Hands On Nashville.
There are NO rules for this shoot- take advantage of the talent, folks- this could easily be your engagement photo, 1 year pictures, updated family photo, senior picture, pet portrait... Just know that you have 20 minutes. :0)
Bring some props, bring a friend, bring a giving attitude!!!
Pied Piper Creamery will be donating 25% of their profits from this weekend to these organizations as well. So grab a homemade waffle cone and a homemade icecream for the road, for bribery, whatever ;0)

So I have this grand idea to post a personal blog every Thursday but with the baby and the business I make no promises! :0) Today though, it's going to happen! Friends and family, soak it in!
We've been really trying to be good about taking photos of our life since Seven came. I want to remember every stage of his life and we're also making an extra effort to actually be in the photos because we think it's so important for kids to have images with their parents. My thought is that if I make an effort to post a personal blog every week, I'll make even more of an effort to take the personal images every week. It's a great theory right? :0) Here are a few of our more recent favorites. More to come (*hopefully*) next week.
Sean doing what Sean loves best and Seven humoring Sean...
Seven at 7 weeks...
How work gets done around here. And yes, we have waaaay too many water bottles on our desk, among other things.
and finally, my little man just hanging out in the morning while we make breakfast...
We met up with Ally and Glaydon and their sweet dog Brady last week for their engagement session. Having a dog running through the fields after his ball as you move from place to place just sets such a laid-back and comfy tone to a session! Add to that a gorgeous couple, the beautiful skies, perfect temperatures, and lush greenery and you've got the perfect shoot! Thanks Ally and Glaydon! :0)
