This past week has been a completely busy and crazy-wonderful whirlwind with major life events. The business is in its busiest season, and the weather can’t get any prettier! Chase and I are forever working on our new house painfully slow…. We are pressing on towards the goal!

Our most favorite news (other than my sister soon being able to see her husband who is flying in from Afghanistan) is that our sweet, precious, nephew is here! I am forever grateful to be a part of his arrival into the world. I am at a loss for words when our Lord gives us his favor with such a tiny blessing. We give the love and Glory to the one who gives breath and life. What a beautiful soul our family has welcomed. Make sure to leave your best below =)

We recently had someone mention that our clients always look so stylish in their images!  ”What do I wear for my pictures?” is a question we get asked daily from clients booking their Portrait Session. We feel it is highly important to guide our clients on what to wear, and styling help on clothing ideas for their portrait sessions. Don’t settle for less when you will have these images to last you a lifetime! Depending on what type of portrait session you are doing, always dress your BEST and try and get your hair and make-up professionally done – even if you are going for a more natural look.  Bring a few outfits and accessories (belt, scarf, hair pieces, hat), and we go over everything before the shoot to find the best clothes to fit the location and the look you are going for. Props for your shoot that fit your personality are always an added plus – this helps create a more personal and unique feel to the images.

Some clients opt for a personal clothing consultant. We recommend Lois Ann Marin of Personal Couture of Huntsville. She will work with you personally, and get you looking your best!

For your makeup needs, we personally work with Sylvia Smith-mua of Pro Makeup Artist Studios. She is extremely talented, and her work is always consistently incredible.

For more clothing ideas, we typically send our clients to our “What to Wear” pinterest page. This helps them visualize what we feel would be the ideal clothing choices to help perfect their session, and to help them look their BEST. Choosing the right outfit can make a huge impact on how the images turn out, so choose wisely… And by all means, ALWAYS iron your clothes

Posing. You will be given guidance and direction on approaching the camera during your session. We want you to feel as comfortable and STYLISH as possible!

This high school senior girl session was nothing short of an adorable, stylish Senior Girl Portrait Session Sarah’s red hair, fabulous porcelain skin, and beautiful high cheekbones, are a photographer’s dream! Her movements and poise in front of the camera are a natural, hidden talent. She was an absolute dream to work with. Sarah, may you always be blessed in your journey through college at Auburn! You are incredible to have gotten a scholarship to Auburn!

Please take the time to leave your best and well wishes to the lovely senior, Sarah. This is the beginning of such a wonderful journey for her, and we couldn’t be happier you allowed us to capture such an important moment in time.  Much love, Jan
