Full Of Joy Photography

Being pregnant is one of the most beautiful miracles.  I remember when my boys first started kicking….how I wish I could go back to those moments.

I am so thankful that I had the privilege to capture Kimberly, Parker and Quinn as await the newest addition to their precious family.

The boys were CUTE,  SWEET  and crazy…just like my own, but we still managed to capture

some precious moments.

Best wishes to you Kimberly in the days to come!  I can’t wait to meet the new addition!

I love this little 3 month angle….well she is actually 4.5 months old now…that is how behind I am with updating the site.

She is as sweet as she looks and just melts my heart!  I just cannot believe she is growing so fast.

We have decided to call Senior Sessions “It’s All About Me” because your senior photo session is typically the last session you have where you  get to be the “star”.  The next stages in life typically include your loved ones: engagement, wedding, maternity and then life is all about your own children.    So, we want our seniors to know that their session is all about them and what they want to capture about themselves at the huge stage in their life!  Of course we keep our sessions “G” rated and  always get a few shots that we think mom and grandma think are just too precious.

Here are a few shots of  Morgan one of our “It’s All About Me”  2011 seniors.

She is a very sweet young lady who is a Southern Star, a great student and joy to be around!

We will post her video once we finish her session.

Fun at the beach!

We had the privilege of  doing a session for one of my best friends mom and her grand-kiddos!  Wow, was it tricking trying to get 5 kiddos and two adults to look and smile  in one shot, but with some head swapping in photoshop we made it work.  The big kids did great, but the baby had a hard time with the sun and the sand…understandably so.

Here are a few fun ones…I will post the video soon…once I have JJ show me how do it again…I forgot.

Life can be very hard sometimes…and lately my sweet 2 year old has made it more of a challenge.

After a late start due to me staying with Colin at school and going to chapel with him, I sat down at Star Bucks and decided before I open photoshop I would go to one of my favorite blogs: http://proverbs31devotions.blogspot.com/ and read the devotional of the day.  Wow, did it strike a nerve.  The prayer of the day is: Dear Lord, forgive me for the times I choose condemnation over love; rudeness over kindness; or decide to do nothing rather than do the right thing. Please prompt my heart and interrupt my momentary schedule so my actions accurately reflect who You are. In Jesus’ Name, Amen. Verse:“Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon.” Philippians 4:5

Yikes…I often wonder about the people I trample over because I am so stressed out with Colin…what kind of example am I.   I have been guilty of being rude and short with people in public places due to me being focused on child who is screaming or running in the other direction.    Do you ever have that problem?

I am praying for grace today….I pray that I may be a reflection of God’s love no matter the situation I am in.  God is so very  good to me!

Anyhow, check out the blog…it is great!

Now I am ready to start my day…with my mind and heart focused upward.

Have a great Friday!
