We are going to be offering special mini-sessions this year in plenty of time for Easter. We're partnering with Noah's Little Ark to provide portraits of your child with an adorable bunny rabbit.

When and Where

The sessions will start at 10 a.m. on Saturday, March 6, 2010. In the event of rain, we will reschedule for Saturday, March 13. Each session will last approximately 20 minutes. We will be photographing at Heritage Park in East Brainerd. It is located at 1428 Jenkins Road.

Clothing

Dressy, white outfits are perfect for these portraits, but casual outfits are also an option. Please plan to arrive five minutes before your appointment to make sure we have the full 20 minutes to spend with your child.

Pricing and Ordering

The session fee will be $100 and includes one 8x10 print and 8 wallets (a $70 value). We will upload the photos to an online gallery the following day. Additional prints may be ordered from the gallery. In order to receive your portraits in time for Easter, all orders must be received by Friday, March 19.

We only have time for about twelve sessions. If you're interested in scheduling your session, or want more information, please call Leah at (423) 598-2393.

Today at 11:56 marks the fourth anniversary of the happiest moment of my adult life: the birth of my wonderful son, Isaac.





It amazes me how quickly the years have passed, and how much we have have done in these four years. We've travelled from Tennessee to Idaho and back three times (by car and plane), made lots of new friends and had many adventures in between.















It has been a fun, challenging, amazing journey and I can't wait to see what happens next. Happy Birthday, Isaac! We love you very, very much.
