Saturday was Cooper's first birthday party!!!  His parents asked me to come over and photograph the festivities.  They had a ton of family and friends there for the occassion and everyone had a great time!

Cooper's new trick is playing peek-a-boo.  He is so cute!  

I just love those facial expressions!

Here he is with June, his sweet dog.

And of course, we couldn't leave out the cake picture!

Happy Birthday, little man!  It's been a great year!  I'm looking forward to watching you grow up!

Today, I had the honor of photographing my very first Greek baptism.  It was such a neat experience.  The babies, Konstantine and Gabriela, cousins, were adorable.  I'm not sure they loved every second of their baptism, but they both did good.  

The reception immediately followed at the Westin Poinsett Hotel.  It was quite the party with their cakes and the amazing desserts!  Greeks really know how to throw a party!

Thank you Amy and Eva for asking me to photograph your precious children.  

Enjoy!

Meet Erin and Stuart.  They were married at Taylors First Baptist Church this past Saturday.  Erin was concerned about having her wedding in July with the heat, but it was an absolutely beautiful day!  The weather could not have been more perfect.  And Stuart and Erin couldn't be more perfect for each other!  Erin and I have been friends for several years and the moment I met Stuart, I knew he was the one for her.  They are so sweet together!  She was on of the most radiant brides I've ever seen.  It was so fun watching them interact all day.  

However, my favorite part of the day was the music that was played as Erin walked down the aisle.  It was a song that she had written and recorded.  It made my heart just melt!

Congratulations, Erin and Stuart!  I am so happy for both of you!

Allison Elizabeth shot this one.  (Thanks for all of your help!)

Meet Davis.  He is the first born son of Casey and Reggie.  

Casey is the sister of one of my recent brides, Catherine.  I was so excited when she asked me to do photos!  I feel like I've known she and her sweet family my whole life!

Davis was precious!  He barely cried, so I was only able to get one crying shot!  He basically slept the entire shoot!  He is such a sweetheart and looks EXACTLY like his daddy!  

Congratulations!  I am so happy for you both!  Y'all are going to be great parents!  

Davis

The new family!

He is now 10 weeks old and such a cutie!  His mommy and daddy are over the moon for him and I could see why!  He just has this sweetness about him!

Thank you, Nicole and Matthew, for asking me to photograph your precious son!  He is blessed to have you as his parents.

Enjoy!

I love this expression on his face!  So sweet!
