Melissa is my roommate. She’s proof that finding housemates via craigslist CAN work! We’ve been living together since around the beginning of this year. She asked me one day recently if I could take a couple shots of her because she didn’t have any recent headshots, and I happily obliged. These were just quickly taken in our back yard. Gotta love that golden hour light.

If you remember part one of Meagan’s senior portraits, you’ll know that we got rained out after only about half an hour. So to complete her session, I drove up to Dunbar Cave in Clarksville for the not-as-urban/more-naturey final part of the shoot. We had a lot of fun playing with light!

Thanks for letting me experiment, Meagan! (And, um, thanks for finding me when I got lost in the woods.)

I cannot believe my niece Meagan will be a senior in high school next year! Fifteen years ago, I was spending my summers babysitting her, and in a year she’ll be ready to go off to college. We headed out to downtown Nashville to capture this exciting moment in her life. It was raining most of the day, but we managed to find a brief period of blue(ish) sky. Well, that is, until the sky thought we should be done and dropped a monsoon on us. (Can we get a weekend without rain here, please? Thanks.) We had to postpone the rest of the session, so look for it in coming weeks! But for now…a few little teasers of the downtown portion.

Thanks for being willing to walk through mud (and, you know, not laughing TOO hard when my feet got covered in it)!

Before my newborn session with Ella, I had a mini-session with her grandma with her dog Rosey. Tina may be a new grandmother, but she hardly looks like it!
