There is nothing but love for the Adams family. A true Godly family and that I have loved being able to photograph year after year. They are so fun and full of life and laughter. You won’t find a more genuine family.

We met on a beautiful day in September on a gorgeous property in Minden Louisiana. We had beautiful sunshine and lots of lovely greens to create such a wonderful contrast. We all had such a wonderful time together and I know these images will be cherished for a lifetime. There is something about documenting your family year after year that is so special.

I am so thankful for each of the families that I have been so blessed to work with and I look forward to all the ones to come.

If there was only one thing I could tell a mama I would want to make sure it was something that would be beneficial and encouraging to her. There’s a million and one people giving her advice, pointing out what she’s maybe not doing right, and saying things that tear down. She doesn’t need to hear anymore of those things.

Motherhood is beautiful and trying. The sleepless nights. The tears from both you and baby because you can’t figure out what’s wrong. The ache in your heart as you watch your baby grow and do things that don’t need your help anymore. There’s so much joy and so much overwhelm.

If there were only one thing I could say, it would be “you’re doing a good job.” It doesn’t matter if your baby has colic and is crying all hours of the night. It doesn’t matter if they are a dream and sleep all night. Maybe they don’t nap unless you hold them. Maybe they are content to be put down. Maybe they’re not. Maybe they are breastfed. Maybe they are formula fed. Maybe they are fed through a feeding tube. None of these determine whether you are doing a good or bad job. None of these define you as a mom.

You are doing a good job, mama. Your baby is loved. You’re doing your very best. You’re doing a good job.

One day that baby will grow up and look back on their childhood and say, “wow, my mom was the best mom in the world and I only hope I can raise my kids the way she raised me.” And when you see them with their own family, raiding their own babies, you’ll stand proud knowing that you did a good job.

So don’t let the current circumstances or what others say try to define you as a mother. You are doing you’re very best and yes, you are doing a good job.

We are so thankful you stopped by. Be sure to check out our website to see more gorgeous images of the sweetest families we are so incredibly honored to call our clients.

My sweet girl is 7. Wow, time flies. I remeber the day we brought her home, I was so paranoid that night that I jercked awake all hours of the night to make sure she was breathing. Seven years later, we all survived.

Brining her into this world was no easy task (hello 47 1/2 hour labor) but it’s something I would do over and over again to have this beautiful girl in my life.

Elaine is a special one. She loves people and loves to make people feel loved. She loves giving out hugs and always smiles from ear to ear. She’s a sweetheart that cares deeply. She’s not one that will like you one day but not the next. Once you have her love, you’re stuck with her.

She loves animals and babies. She melts to the floor when she thinks something is cute. One thing is for sure, you will get a reaction out of her.

She’s smart beyond her years and loves to learn. To know her is to love her.

Happy birthday, Elaine! ( on September 6th) We love you so very much!

Milestone portraits can totally be for kiddos as well as infants. How does that work? Birthday portraits each year!

Each year, I make it a point to take my girls out and do a full session of portraits for their birthday. Yes, just a few iphone snapshots could do the job at remembering how they looked at this age, but as a photographer in the Shreveport Louisiana area, I try to make it a point to grab my big camera and capture my own kids. In all reality, I’m just like you. I want my memories preserved too!

These sessions are so fun and can be done at any time of year- whenever their birthday is! They are so great for giving your kiddos that moment in the spotlight and focusing all on them.

For Elaine, this year, I took her out in our mini orchard on our land and we captured all the sweet features of her personality and I will cherish these forever.

I can’t believe my girl is almost 7!
