Tanner & Morgan are so special to me. Their family has been on my blog NUMEROUS times… which is such a compliment because that means they keep coming back to me for their photography needs. They were actually one of the very first families I photographed when starting out and I’ve been able to watch their kids grow up! Tanner entered the army about a year ago and so their family has seen a lot of changes recently. One of the biggest changes is that they will be moving to Kentucky, where Tanner will be stationed! I know that their families will miss them incredibly (and me too!), but hopefully we will see them back here often.

For a special treat, Morgan scheduled a “Couples” session for just the two of them so we could get some really sweet pictures of them together. I SO enjoyed letting them love on each other in front of me and getting to capture that for them! We got so many awesome shots, I can’t wait to see which ones Morgan orders for her new home!

Morgan & Tanner, Eric & I love you both and are always here for you guys! Ya’ll are such an inspiration to so many couples and we pray the best for you two in the future! Thank you, Tanner, for serving our country and thank you, Morgan, for being such a strong army wife! I hope you LLOOOVVVEEE your pictures!

A few months ago, I got the pleasure of celebrating Kim’s graduation with a photoshoot. Her mom got to hang out with us and it was so fun to see them buddy together! A few weeks later Kim’s mom, Linda, contacted me to see if I could do a photoshoot of her other daughter, Rachel. Of course, I was more than delighted!

Rachel and Kim are polar opposites. Both incredibly sweet, kind, and fun, but SO different in lots of ways. It was so neat to hear the story from Kim’s mom about how they prayed for a little baby girl, finally got pregnant, went to to get an ultrasound, and it was a boy. Although excited, they were a little disappointed because they had been praying for a girl. When the day finally came for the baby to be born, they were incredibly surprised and delighted when the doctor told them they just had a baby GIRL! How cool that God did that for them? I don’t know what the ultrasound tech saw when she did the exam, but God heard their prayers and gave them a little girl. So awesome.

So anyway… here’s their baby… who is no longer a baby anymore! She’s going to be in the 8th grade next year! Rachel, thank you for letting me spend the evening with you taking pictures of your beautiful self! You are awesome, girl!

One thing I specifically remember Brittany saying during our session is that she likes to hang out with all types of people. She really isn’t a member of one particular “clique,” but she makes friends with people who are involved with all types of activities, people who have all different kinds of personalities, and of course - “high school status” is not an issue. What a blessing it was to be able to photograph her! She was just a beautiful girl inside and out and I truly enjoyed getting to know her!

Brittany, good luck next year at Glen Rose! You are amazing! Enjoy your pics!

The Sprayberry’s are a very special family to me, and it was SUCH a joy to be able to photograph them! Jen and I meet [almost] every other week to hold each other accountable on our lives, our marriages, our relationships with the Lord as well as lots of other things. We always always always share a ton of laughter and, of course, a lot of food and dessert. Jen is so special to me and I’m so thanful for her frienship (I love you, Jen!).

My husband and Justin also work at StoneWater church together, as Justin is the Executive Pastor! Justin & Jen’s kids are always hanging around on Sunday morning and Eric loves to play with them and give them a hard time. It’s so cool to see my hubby with kids, because I know he’s going to be a great dad someday. Jen and Justin are SUCH an amazing example of how to be godly parents and raise up your children in the way of the Word! They have 4 little ones (fun fact… Justin & Jen got pregnant with twins on their honeymoon) and they are all so unique and amazing.

Thanks Jen & Justin for letting me have so much fun with you guys capturing your family through photographs! Ya’ll are such a blessing to me and I’m so thankful to call you friends!! Love you guys! Hope you enjoy your pictures!
