Callie…

Meet the GORGEOUS Callie….when I found out that Callie wanted me to do her senior pictures, I was so excited.  Being the drum major at your high school isn’t an easy task and makes you very interesting to be around.  We had an awesome time together yesterday, and I couldn’t wait to share this little teaser.  

There is so much more to come including a rabbit, saxophone, and fresh flowers!!! 

ENJOY! 

 

Enjoying every minute…

Since Chandler went to college, back in January, I have made a conscious effort to enjoy every minute of the time that I get to spend with him.  Not that I didn’t enjoy it before, but things change when you are no longer the short order cook, the dry cleaner, the taxi driver, and the maid.  

His busy schedule is now filled with workouts, film, throwing, class, tutoring, studying and somewhere in there he gets to sleep.  So this weekend when he took time out to come home, I just simply revealed in the company.  I must say when he gave me 5 whole minutes to take his picture in the backyard (you heard me right…NO cool locations allowed); with his friend Savannah, I decided to simply be thankful.  

Life is short, time flies by and laughter is SO necessary.  Like so many of you, I am simply blessed. 

ENJOY!!!

Pretty Girl Couture Fall 2010…

This talented designer is one that I am thrilled to feature again.  Ann Belskis is based out of Chicago and her designs are sophisticated, whimsical and very much couture.  

Here is a peak at a few pieces from her Fall 2010 Collection.  Ann and I, plus our 4 gorgeous models, spent Monday dodging heat, clouds and raindrops.  Amazingly, we got through all of the models before the actual rain came.  Thanks to Katie, Layne, Alicia, and Sydney.  You guys are TOTAL ROCKSTARS and working with each of you was a dream.  

If you haven’t visited Pretty Girl Couture’s Facebook Fan Page, be sure to do so.  She is always up to something creative and has been fortunate enough to work with some amazing photographers and models.  

ENJOY!!!

 

Terry…

Saturday I had the opportunity to get together with a wonderful lady and incredible photographer for her “Spend the Day with TriciaLee” mentoring session.  

Terry contacted me a couple of months ago and expressed that she has always LOVED photography, but was really looking to push her hobby into a rewarding profession.  

So we got together, while I was in Atlanta, and did an awesome shoot together with the Ayer family and then spent a couple of hours, which flew by, chatting about all things photography. 

I always love mentoring others and sharing just a small portion of what was so generously given to me along the way.  

Terry we have the most rewarding job in the world and I look forward to your very bright future.  You are going to do GREAT things. 

ENJOY!!!

Savannah…

This was such a special senior session.  I knew from the minute that I met Savannah that it would be great…but I had no idea how great.  She is such a special, thoughtful and sweet person, as is her family.  We scheduled the shoot to take place at their home in Florida, and even though we got rained out of our scheduled time, we made the most of that day and woke up bright and early the following morning to some amazing sunlight and colors.  She and her mom were very patient with some steamy, rainy, hot weather…so I owe them a huge THANKS!!!  Here are just a couple of my favorites.  We are going to surprise you with the rest of them later. 

XOXO you guys!!! 

ENJOY!!!

The light in this one is SO yummy!!!
