Family and friends

It was such a joy to photograph these friends in early fall at the Ellington Agricultural Center in Nashville. We made a picnic out of it and had a great time... But my favorites are the tender, peaceful moments...

Getting boys to want a picture taken is somewhat like asking them not to be boys! But get them talking about something they love and they might just be willing to relax just long enough.

Family Memories

The experience of photography is more than getting a picture made. It is a beautiful and fun process to find that laughter, that joyful spark that makes someone feel special. That is when a photograph becomes a moment to remember. You can look back and relive the feeling of joy or conflict or pride you felt at that moment. Taking pictures is done by everyone. But I love the craft of making simple life into grand moments that remind our hearts of great achievement, of joyful times, of passions and love.
These two boys will always remember this Thanksgiving day in Murfreesboro, waiting for turkey dinner, unpacking Christmas decorations...
