Whitt Family >>> Knoxville Family Photographer

I had a great time catching up with this family again this fall for their family photos. We did their session last year in the same location and it was so fun to see how this little one has grown and how just a couple of months makes such a big difference in a location! I love how fun and energetic their photos turned out. It was great to see you guys again Whitt family! Enjoy! 2014-10-21_00012014-10-21_00022014-10-21_00032014-10-21_00042014-10-21_00052014-10-21_0006

Faddis Newborn >>> Knoxville Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

This tiny little bundle felt so small to me after I've been holding my 9lbs 7oz humongo baby for the past couple of months! She was just the cutest little thing snug as a bug in mama and daddy's arms. Congratulations Faddis Family! Your sweet baby girl is precious. Blessings to you all as your family grows. 2014-10-02_00012014-10-02_00022014-10-02_00032014-10-02_00042014-10-02_0005

A New Baby Girl >>> Knoxville Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

This family is so special to me because they represent so many firsts for me. First time I photographed a birth, then they were my first official newborn clients. I've been able to photograph them since then as well so of course I was so excited to get to photograph their new baby girl. Photographing them is pretty much just like hanging out with friends. I'm so thankful I've been able to document their family as they grow. Congratulations Trusty family! Blessings to you as God grows your family. 2014-09-24_00012014-09-24_00022014-09-24_00032014-09-24_00042014-09-24_0005

Caroline 8 Month Portraits >>> Knoxville Baby Photographer

I love this family because I always feel so comfortable and right at home with them. Mama even texted me before our session to tell me to bring Reid with me if I needed to in case I needed to nurse him. Even though I didn't bring him, I thought that was such a sweet and thoughtful thing to do for a fellow new mama. That's just the kind of family this is and this baby girl is so blessed to be a part of it. Happy 8 Months Caroline! I can't believe the next time I photograph you, you'll be a year old!

Mollenhour Newborn >>> Knoxville Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

I love photographing newborns for so many reasons but one of those is connecting with other moms. I had such a great time getting to know this mama and her sweet family during this little guys session. And a bonus for me was that she was a brand new mother of 3 so I got to pick her brain on how it was going since I was near the end of my pregnancy with our third at the shoot. :) Congratulations Mollenhour family! Your family is precious and it was wonderful getting to spend the afternoon with you all. Blessings! 2014-07-07_00062014-07-07_00072014-07-07_00082014-07-07_00092014-07-07_00102014-07-07_00112014-07-07_00122014-07-07_0013

Number Three >>> Knoxville Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

I can’t believe that as I’m writing this my sweet little third baby is already almost a month old! Reid Matthew Sams was born on July 13th, 2014 at 5:37pm weighing 9lbs 7oz and 21inches long! He was a big guy! He has been such a blessing to our family already. We didn’t decide his name until we saw him and it means “redheaded gift from God.” And boy does he ever have red hair! Beck is completely smitten with him and is continually covering him with hugs and kisses. Ellie likes him too but she’s not as into him as big brother Beck. ;) Everyone told me this, but there really is just something about the third baby. I guess it’s because I’m so much more relaxed about things this time around. And I know how quickly these days go by. I am enjoying every single second with him and I want to remember every detail.  Time with him is FLYING. I can’t believe he’s almost a month old. Don’t get me wrong, I am super busy with three little ones and my hands are full but so are our hearts. If you remember from this post, I had said that I felt like the Lord was promising me that Reid would be a help and a blessing to our family, well, He did not disappoint. God has certainly fulfilled His promise by blessing us with him! I can’t wait to see the little man God has designed him to be.

I knew it would be quite a challenge to do my own newborn photos. Let’s just say that Reid is a pretty big fan of mommy and if I’m anywhere near him he wants to be in my arms, which is fine except when I’m trying to photograph him. So, most of my images of him are snapshots into our life rather than posed images. These are the ones I love anyways so I’m ok with that. :) If you follow me on Facebook, you’ve already seen quite an overload of our new love. But get ready, because I just couldn’t narrow these down any more. Here are some shots from our first few weeks with Reid. Enjoy!

Hudson 9 Month Portraits >>> Knoxville Baby Photographer

Can’t believe that this little guy will be one of my first clients to photograph when I come back from my maternity leave and it will be for his ONE YEAR session! Crazy. He get’s cuter each time I see him and I love hanging out with his family. I know this is super late but happy 9 Months Hudson! 2014-06-23_00142014-06-23_00152014-06-23_00162014-06-23_00172014-06-23_0018

I loved this newborn session. I was able to photograph this family for their maternity and birth photos so I felt super comfortable and at ease around them for their session. Not to mention, they have a beautiful home and capturing their obvious love for their little guy was not hard at all. :) I am so happy for you guys to enter into this amazing and blessed stage in the life of your family. Congrats to this sweet new family!

Audrey’s One Year Portraits >>> Knoxville Baby Photographer

I’m a little behind on blogging but telling myself that’s ok since I won’t be shooting for clients for the next month or so during my maternity leave, this way I’ll still have lots of awesome sessions to share with you guys ;). Today I’m sharing Ms. Audrey’s one year session with you. Audrey is my first little one that I’ve been able to follow since her mama was carrying her in her belly. After that we did newborn, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and now her one year portraits. I feel so blessed to have been able to document each one of these milestones during her first year. She is precious and I look forward to seeing her grow into a beautiful little lady after God’s heart. Love you guys, Lewis family! 2014-06-23_00092014-06-23_00102014-06-23_00112014-06-23_00122014-06-23_0013
