Today my best friend, Allison, asked me to do a quick photoshoot of her sister’s family.  It literally took us 5 minutes, but those 5 minutes provided some excellent shots, so I thought I’d post a few from today’s shoot

I always love photographing the Rusts.  They are soo adorable, and they are great friends!  Last Saturday we did a quick mini-session for their holiday card.  Here are the pics:

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing Rubin and Susan for their Christmas present from their dear friend Lauri Cooper!

I LOVE the holidays!  I especially love receiving cards with photos that I’ve photographed throughout the year…SO, if you have made a holiday card with a photo that I’ve taken this year, send it my way, I love it!

Here’s two that I’ve already received

Ashley and Alex

This past summer for my good friend Angela’s birthday, I gave her a certificate good for a photoshoot of her and Darby, her black lab.  When she gave me a call to “redeem” the certificate I was excited for the shoot as Angela is such a good friend and a great mom to her Darby!  We had a blast photographing her and Darby and even got a few shots of her roommate (and my friend) Kelly’s dog, Charlie.

Isn’t Angela gorgeous!?!

Darby was such a good sport!

My favorite photo!

Here are a few images of Charlie

While I was in ATLANTA for Thanksgiving, I had a blast photographing Adam and Kristen’s engagement photos.  We began photographing at their home in Atlanta and moved to Roswell to photograph at their wedding site, the Roswell Mill Club.  Here are some of my favorite shots:

Adam and Kristen – I look forward to flying back to Atlanta in April to photograph your big day!

Two weeks ago I had a BLAST photographing the Herrera/Cortez families!  This extended family is a tight group and it is easy to see how much they love one another!

Here’s the entire group!

Here’s BEAUTIFUL Grandma GiGi!

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I thought I’d publish a mini post   Sofie (my dog) I am home in Atlanta visiting my family for Thanksgiving.  We have taken a few photos with the family, but some of my favorites are from the family dogs

Sofie (all the way from Idaho) with our good family friend Lucielle:

My Mom’s dog, Jake:

My dad’s dog, Tootsie:

Christine Gelb is a GREAT friend.  She had a GREAT idea for a birthday present for not one, but TWO of her close friends this month!  She hired me to photograph their dogs!  She borrowed her friend Lydia’s dog, Betty and other friend, Cameron’s dog, Farris for a lunchtime photoshoot!  I think this was such a great gift idea and soo incredibly nice of Ms. Gelb (also, both dogs were soo sweet), I just HAD to share!

Betty:

Farris:

I LOVE my dog, Sofie.  She goes wherever I go, which includes skiing!  I moved to Idaho three years ago, having only skied once as a child.   Moving to a ski resort town from the deep south was quite a challenge!  I have, however embraced skate skiing over the past two years, and am very much looking forward to this winter’s ski season!  Sofie and I received our nordic trail passes last week and are ready to go, all we need is snow!
