doll and buggy… one of my favorite children photo props…
Little Wing…
All her friends call her little wing. She flys rings around them all. She comes to town when the children sing. And leaves them feathers when they fall, and leave them feathers when they fall. Little wing dont fly away when the summer turns to fall. Don’t you know some people say winters the best time of them all- winter’s the best of them all….
I just love the children’s music of Elizabeth Mitchell. Her songs sung with children tug at my heart. If you have small children or Grand children or just have a tender spot for the precious sweetness of childhood, check out Elizabeth’s website… http://youaremyflower.org/home.html you can listen to her songs at the site…
My time photographing children is such a joy to me. I delight in the beauty of childhood. Is there anything more precious then the out stretched chubby arm of a toddler, as they seek to give you a flower or leaf? The open joy that dances in their eyes and shines in their laughter, is light to my heart and soul. Truly, you are looking into the face of God when you spend time with a child… When you are ready for photographs that capture the joy of childhood in your child, I hope you will contact me…
our beautiful round healthy bradford pear was due for another “trim”, I put trim in ” ” because the trim is more like a hacking! If I were a tree I’m sure I
would have heard it’s protests….
So here it is in all it’s nakedness… Stripped of it’s years of growth and shelter for the many birds that resided in it… I say many birds because there are
very obvious signs on our driveway during the spring and summer… Signs I have to, drag out the garden hose from the other side of the house, to remove.
I wish I could post a audio of said birds protests once the tree butcher’s had left. (OK, that’s a bit harsh to call them butcher’s, but look at this poor remnant left standing!)
The birds were squacking up a storm and flying all around wildly. I made a quick escape into the house before they turned on me..
It’s possible too many trees were cut up in this town…
I am truly going to miss the bright red ball of leafs this fall and the white spring blooms that make it look like a giant popcorn ball…
So that’s it for now… in the life of our bradford pear tree…
The past 6 1/2 months our little Lehman family has been seperated by Jim’s deployment to Afghanistan…
There are moments in your life when words just can’t describe the moment. This is one of them. Seeing Jim after months of waiting, praying, hoping and
dreaming of his safe return…There he was… Prayers answered…
Shouts of joy echoed the Atlanta GA. airport, Sept. 15th, as our beloved Airmen and women reached the area we were anxiouly waiting in. Many, tears of joy.
How I missed this smile!
We arrived home Wed. Sept. 16th… A couple of our precious friends and their children (also precious friends!) Where on stayby for the text we were on our way. They came and put up the welcome home decorations.
We claimed Psalm 91 as our protection and promise God would bring Jim home safely. We are so very thankful and blessed. Our family once again united. All our thanks and love to our many family and friends, who supported us with prayers and encourgement. All our praise to the Lord and His blessings on Jim and our family while we were apart…
So that part of our lives is now over. Would I want to do it again? No. Did many wonderful things happen because of this experience, YES. We are getting back to our routine little by little. Jim is adjusting to the time change. Calvin is thrilled his Dad is back. I am over joyed ♥
While Jim was away I put my photography business on hold. I am gearing up for some fall sessions and working on some marketing for High School Seniors this coming Spring. I am taking a limited amount of fall session appointments. Please contact me if you have questions.
this is a photo display in our den… minus ONE print… one of my objectives while in Memphis with our friends was to capture a Beale St. “sign” photo to complete this display. I had a great time toting my tripod and camera up and down the street setting up for different shots… the problem now is I have several favorites and can not decide on which one to choose. this is where you can help! I’ve set up a little poll for a vote… please take a minute and vote on your fav. the print with the most votes, WINS…
our good friends in SC drove all the way over to Nashville for a photo session… mom wanted some funky dance photos of her “dancer”. these were SO FUN!
Samantha was 2 years old when our families met. She and Calvin were the best of friends… She is growing into such a remarkable young lady. Taking her photos and working on them have brought back such wonderful memories… I’m so glad we have kept in touch and can continue our special friendship…
I can’t remember if I laughed harder taking these photos or when I was processing them! But one thing is forsure, these were a BLAST! It was daughter against daughter, granddaughter against grandmother, mother-in-law against son-in-law and husband against wife… There were obvious ambushes, everyone against Tammy, and let’s GET HIM… all against Mike… I love it when clients are open to my crazy suggestions… and everyone had a BLAST…
thanks for dropping in….
the wilson county fair is coming, anyone want to meet for family photo session???? email me…
