Senior/Grad pics from Nashville

So while I was in Nashville I had a chance to follow around an award winning photographer, Steve Harrington and his wife and photoshop expert Shelley. It was a great experience and I learned a lot about posing, lighting and all sorts of ideas for great Grad portraits. Our Model Jaycee was from Utah and she was great. She had such great eye contact and I had so many favorites from our full day shoot. Also on our trip through Nashville, we ran into Devon who we got to pose for us, what a great sport. Here are a few that I took while there. Thanks Steve and Shelley for bringing such a great lady down to Nashville for us, such a perfect model.

Ok I know I totally am slacking in the blogging world

I am so sorry for all you blog stalkers out there that I haven't posted any pics in a while. I really need to get back and post more often, just a busy time of year I guess. So if I haven't contacted you yet, all orders that are needed for Christmas need to be ordered by the end of November so I can make sure you have them in time. I hope that most people read this and know that I can't promise Christmas delivery if ordered after November 30th. I hope to post a few pics of my time in Nashville soon so keep watching as I will try and post a few pics from my boudoir session and grad session soon.

I hope all is well.

Signing off. Natalie

Greetings from Nashville

Hey Y'all, I just wanted to say hi from Nashville. Right now I am in a seminar on Grad photography. I can't wait to come home and break into this market even more than I did this year. I have learned so much.
Last night I had a chance to practice in our really unique hotel doing a bit of Boudoir photos. One of the gals here wanted to do a special present for her husband for their 15th anniversary so I had the opportunity to shoot that for her. I hope to offer this to most of my brides from here on out, what a great gift to give your new husband on your wedding day.
Tonight we are going downtown to check out some of Nashville. It should be a fun time. Well I better get back to listening. I hope all is well.

6 day old Brandon

Ok so I love my job, I love being able to capture those sweet first moments with a baby. Last night,Aaron and Leanna brought in their new baby Brandon, he was only 6 days old. Although I don't think he liked to be naked, a full belly helped in all that. Such a beautiful baby boy. Congrats again Aaron and Leanna,you have a heart breaker on your hands, I know it.

Just a note,if you have a new baby, the best time to take their photos is in the first 10 days as they are still so limber and can be moved into squishy positions more easily. Call me as soon as the baby is born to book your appt or even better, book before you even have the baby to make sure you get an appt.

Here is a small sneak into Brandon's session, I think this is some of my best work yet. I hope you agree.

Kara, a beautiful 5 week old baby girl

So Donna gave birth to a beautiful baby girl a little over 5 weeks ago now and she finally made it in for her photo shoot. Kara has a full head of hair and even though it took a while to console her, we got some great photos.  Here is a sneak into her session

A few more grads from the past week, first off Paige CNHS

So Paige joined me a week ago and I figured I should blog a few pics for her to see. Paige I hope you enjoy this little sneak into your session.
