BABY G........life.style.art.

For some reason, I just had to post these very "LIFESTYLE" portraits that were done THIS MORNING (yes, i know...can you even believe it?  me either) because I was so fascinated and humored by big sister's expression in photograph #2.........see, big sis really wanted nothing to do with little sis or being in front of the camera. I was afraid that with her lack of interest (rubbing off on the little one, might i add!) that we might not get a really good family shot with her in it. But, much to my surprise........

VOILA!  The perfect family photograph that is nothing short of adorable and timeless and HYSTERICAL.  Absolutely NOT your typical, stiff portrait......but this is the essence of what I do.  These photographs totally characterize my style.  They are validating and uplifting. And that makes me HAPPY.

I am still very much struggling with my branding and colors (Fast Track Photographer Workshop...here I come!) and the like, but the more that time goes on, the more I really enjoy my little slogan.........because I really feel like my images are full of life, graced with style (some of mine, and most of my clients), and it is my art.  That becomes yours.  To share with the rest of the world.  Moments are created every day. Time can never be relived. Moments happen that will never be again.  Photographs truly are a gift.  A prized possession that gives you back memories of a time that can never be experienced again. But the photograph.....will let you visit for a short while. It will jog your memory of what was.  Of what was a part of you.  Your family.

Take photographs of your family.  Enjoy the tears, the smiles, the growth, the triumphs, the milestones, the wrinkles, the imperfections, and the laughter.  This family below was the best. So calm. So true. So gracious. They are moving from Pensacola in ONE WEEK.  They had this precious new bundle ONE WEEK AGO. But still.......in the middle of what should be complete chaos......took the time to capture this moment.  These moments.  They made photographs that will last a lifetime a priority smack dab in the middle of the mayhem that we call life. Mom described this time as , "Moments we can't ever get back!"

Pretty Amazing.

Thank you Strickland family.  You were wonderful.
