Bryant Family

I had the opportunity to photograph some of my favorite people in Macon.  The Bryant + Hodgens + Gramm family have been friends of ours for many years.  The baby, Oak, was born just this past summer.  And less than 48 hours after this session ended, Lauren Summers had her new baby too!  It is always a joy to get to photograph the people you love. 

Gigi Babies

A friend of my wife has a children's clothing store, Gigi Babies.  She needed a few pictures of an outfit she made for our daughter, Abigail.  I don't do any of the shopping for our kids clothing; but, I can say that her stuff looks great on my kids and is very reasonably priced!  Check her out on Facebook or Etsy. 

Fall Colors

I took these on Thanksgiving Day last year.  The family is actually my sister and her in-laws.  After lunch, they wanted to find a nice place to take a picture.  We drove over to Wesleyan College and found this awesome tree.  The color of the tree was amazing!  Just one of those lucky finds that made for a great picture. 

Trying something new...

I'm trying something new tonight. I want to see how an iPhone post looks. These pictures are from a wedding I shot a while back. My wife posted them to Facebook, I saved them on my iPhone, and am trying to post via my phone.

I still have some weekends available for 2011 & 2012. Send me a message to schedule a free consultation.

Its been too long!

This posting is beyond overdue!  My wife has openend her own business (Peek-A-Boo Paintings);   Abigail is now four and has become a preschool social butterfly; we've been trying to sell our house since March; and, we've added another to our family.  I'm now the proud dad of two girls!  Mallory was born this past summer and, as most babies do, has demanded quite a bit of attention.  So, with these minor changes in my life I've allowed myself to fall way behind in updating my webiste and blog.  Fortunately, I've been able to stay comfortably busy shooting and have tons of images to post over the coming weeks.  I've also been busy updating my pricing structure and will post the changes soon.  So, for now here are a few pictures.... 

Mallory at 7 days old.

This shot was a bit of an accident.  Aubrey, my wife, was posing Mallory while I was testing my flash settings.  Turned out to be one of our favorite! 

Yep.  That's a chair in a yard.  Totally normal! 

Abigail was (and is) so excited to be a big sister! 

So - that's it for now.  I'll be updating quite a bit over the coming weeks so check back again soon.

 

 

A Walk on the Wild Side

The Friday after Thanksgiving I spent the evening with some of Macon Georgia's 2010 Bons Hommes ladies.  Their theme was "A Walk on the Wild Side."  It was a great night filled with "Jungle Juice" and dancing.  You can view pictures from the event by clicking HERE.  The username is "Bons Hommes" and the password is "26113". 

A quick preview. . .

Jon & Rachel - A Love Story

Our family grew this past weekend.  My wife's brother married my best friend's sister.  I've known the bride for 20+ years, so it was a really fun wedding having our families merge together.  I was asked to do a video for their rehearsal dinner.  I was supplied with pictures from the bride's family as well as the grooms.  The challenge was turning the old photographs into a story.  The entire "princess | cowboy" theme was developed from the one picture of Bo, Rachel's brother, as the dancing jester. Little did I know that Creede Hinshaw, the preacher, would borrow that theme and incorporate it into his opening remarks during the ceremony. So...the lesson to be learned. ..watch yourself when someone takes your picture, it may have an impact many years from now! We are so very happy that Rachel is now our sister-in-law!!!!!!

Willoughby Preview

Things have been really busy the past few weeks!  We had a wonderful wedding the first weekend of May.  Brooke and Jake are a great couple and I had a blast shooting their wedding day!  Here are a few pictures from the day. . .more to come soon.

Spring!

Time is really flying by these days.  Its been way too long since my last post.  I recently upgraded my computer (which is never as easy or smooth as I might hope).  I gained about 8 more inches of screen along with some nice technical computer stuff I won't really go into.  

Anyway, I've been doing a lot of shooting recently.  I spent one morning about a month ago with Katherine and Samuel.  I've been friends with their family for many years and we had a wonderful time playing in the beautiful spring weather.  They brought their Easter baskets along (including eggs loaded with treats) which made for some really cute pictures.  

  
  

Kaylin Grace

Sweet baby Kaylin was just over a week old when I took these pictures.  I spent most of the morning with her and her mom and grandmother.  It took us about an hour to get her to sleep, but once she dozed off she was more than willing to do anything we asked of her.  

By the way, if you know of anywhere to get some cool infant hats, bows, blankets, etc., let me know.  I'm trying to grow my prop collection.
