Downtown Memphis Engagement Session

I'm in love with this sweet engagement session.  John proposed to Stephanie at Raiford's Downtown, so I knew these guys were going to be a blast to work with!  We started the day Riverside with their fur babies.  Then we went to several cool little spots Downtown, and they were joking around and having fun the whole time.  I can't wait to celebrate your big day!!  :)

Hannah and Joseph are so much fun.  When they told me they got engaged at Chez Philippe, I was ecstatic that we managed to get the restaurant to open up just for us.  Check out this adorable engagement session!  I can't wait for their big day in just a few weeks.

A Precious Session with Lela - Memphis Family Photography

The last time I took pictures of Lela, sweet baby had just arrived.  She could barely open her eyes.  Almost a year later, she was bursting with personality.  It's crazy how time flies.  Check out this adorable 1 year session I did recently with Lela and her parents in Downtown Collierville!  Try to not smile!

Finley's magical journey into the world

The day has finally come for this blog post.  This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever done.  Amber and I have been best friends since high school.  We even managed to be college roommates and still remain BFs.  We've been by each other's side through all the boy/job/life troubles and also through all the boy/job/life celebrations.   

When Amber told me that her and John were trying to get pregnant, I told her I was there for her whenever/however she wanted.  My heart practically burst when she told me she wanted me to be there from the very first moment of telling John, to the day Finley was born...  And all the amazing moments in between.  

I couldn't be more proud to show off to the world... Finley Claire, my perfect Goddaughter.  I pray you enjoy Finley's journey into her mommy and daddy's arms as much as I enjoyed being on the frontline to capture this incredible moment on one of the strongest and most miraculous days of my best friend's life.

A 17Berkshire-Inspired Styled Bridal Shower Brunch

So in case you weren't aware, Nuha with 17Berkshire is quickly becoming one of my favorite people in the world.  What I love about her treats is the fact that you get designer treats that taste homemade.  I didn't even like macarons (which is the correct spelling for the dainty little treats she makes - I looked it up) until I had one of her macarons.  I had the amazing opportunity to work with her again this past weekend for a 17Berkshire-Inspired Styled Bridal Shower Brunch (yes, I know that's a mouthful).  Nuha made Strawberry Cheesecake Chocolate Pyramids, a Caramel Drip Cake, Meringue Kisses, Croquembouche (the cream puff tower), Eclairs, and Raspberry Macarons.  My favorite part was eating it all after though.  :D Check it out below!  Also... Please take note that I have a new number one rule for my life - Gold leaf must be sprinkled on everything.. Always.  Please and thank you.

A Woodland Themed Baby Shower

Ok - So I know I go a bit overboard sometimes with baby showers.  I'm not sure I know how to just have a little shower.  Plus, it's a blast for me to plan all the details.  My best friend, Amber is due in a few weeks.  Ryan and I threw her and her hubby, John, a couple's baby shower.  I didn't get a picture of the invitation, but I put a screenshot of the PDF for you to see.  It was a woodland themed baby shower... Hence the 'chicken salad tree stumps', 'chocolate MOOSE', and 'Snow White and the 7 layer cheese dip'.  Oh, and don't forget the 'Happy Trails' Mix party favors. As sad as I am that the shower is over and I can't throw another until the spring for my baby brother, I am so pumped that we are now in 'waiting' mode for Finley.  Words can't express how much this family means to me.  I can't WAIT to meet little A'corn.  One thing is for sure, she has many warm hugs ahead of her.  So here it is... And make sure you check out the AMAZING cake and treat towers from 17Berkshire!  She is FANTASTIC!
