Sneak Peek: Claire's Portrait Session

I'm posting a few of my favorite photos from 15 month old Claire's portrait session yesterday. I think she wins the future heartbreaker award, just look at those lashes! I'll post the rest of the photos in the client section of my website later.

Sneak Peek: Miller's Portrait Session

I am busy working on the portraits I made of Andy, Stacey, and Miller (14 months) and wanted to share a sneak peek of a few of them. They were the cutest family to photograph. We had fun playing on North Campus at the University of Georgia. The rest of their portraits will be on my client website shortly.

Athfest this Weekend! June 26-28

Come to Athfest this weekend June 26-28. I'll be there in the Artist Market selling my travel photography and pillows. My sister, Allie Low will have her fun global jewelry for sale too. All this takes place in downtown Athens at the intersection of Washington St. and Hull St. near the Morton Theatre. See you then!

San Francisco Treat

I just wanted to share a few of my favorite photos from my recent trip to San Francisco, California. I explored the city with friends Julia and Emily. We had a lovely time wandering through Chinatown, biking across the Golden Gate Bridge, visiting a local farmer's market, and hiking through Muir Woods Redwood Forest.

Snug as a Bug in a Pea Pod!

I bought the cutest pea pod outfit recently for newborn portraits. Owen looks SO cute and cozy in it.

Allie's Wedding Shower

My little sister, Allie, had her first wedding shower this weekend (that's me on the bottom left and Allie is next to me). The food was SOOOO YUMMY, especially these lemon cookies that my Aunt Kathy and cousins made.

Here is the Lemon Cookie recipe if you want to try it yourself:

Cookie-

2 c. butter blended with 2/3 c. powdered sugar until soft
Add in 2 c. flour and 1 1/3 c. cornstarch.
Mix well. Drop by small dab after forming in hand. Place on ungreased cookie sheet one inch apart. May need to flour hands while rolling them. Bake 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.

Icing-
6 T. butter

1 box powdered sugar

Lemon Juice (about 2 T.)- I actually use at least double what this recipe says. I like it tart and creamy!

Empty Nest

I am so sad today. The sweet family of baby birds that created a home in my newspaper mailbox have all flown away. I will miss seeing their shining faces each time I go to get the mail.

Sneak Peek: Carolyn and Gene's Wedding

Carolyn and Gene had a beautiful wedding at the Athens Botanical Gardens this weekend. I really enjoyed photographing their special day and getting to know them and their family. Here is a sneak peek at a few photos from their wedding.

Newborn Portraits: Owen

Baby Owen is such a cutie. Here are a few of my favorites from our portrait session last weekend.

100th Pillow

Here it is in all its glory... the 100th pillow I've created! Thanks to everyone who entered to win the 100th pillow, customized to your liking. Emily Hunter was the winner of the drawing and she wanted a pillow that would coordinate with these photographs of a California avocado and poppy.
