Memories Portraits {blogged} bio picture

Welcome to my Blog

My specialty is capturing the moments that make our lives so
wonderful. This Blog is intended to be a reflection of my life, both
professional and personal. If you are a new client, friend or family
member, I hope to give you a little peek into who I am through the
images I love. Please feel free to have a look around and drop me a
message if you like.

Life is so full of beauty, I want to capture it... one session at a time.


Miss Maggie

This little girl holds a special place in our hearts here at Memories. We have known her mommy for a long time, and Maggie is just the sweetest little girl you could ever meet. We love having her come in with the bunnies every year and are simply thrilled to see her every time. During this session, it was extra special to photograph Maggie in the same rocking chair her grandmother was photographed in at this age… what a precious girl!



The Henry Boys

I feel so honored that this family continues to make the drive to the studio all the way from Chattanooga. I just love these parents (mom is gorgeous and dad’s a hunkaroonie!) and their boys are absolutely adorable. They were perfect with the bunnies and perfectly behaved. Love them!!




Madelyn and Drew

These two little cuties were so sweet to the bunnies! Miss Madelyn is a total pro and little Drew wasn’t sure what to make of the bunnies, but in the end, he did a great job. Adorable!




Pleased to Meet You

Blake and Wesley came in for their third session of their Baby’s First Year Program and got to meet the bunnies. The boys were just fascinated with them and did such a great job! What a great start we’ve had with bunny season!!




Drum Roll, Please…


Remember this?? It’s been several months in the works but we are so excited to finally introduce our newest labor of love, Squish! This is an exclusive portrait session geared towards newborns three weeks and under… when babies are at utmost squishiness — which is how we came up with the session name, lol, we think we’re geniouses!  Please check out the new Squish website, as well as our updated website featuring our bunny gallery on the home page (btw, the bunnies are coming next week!).  We think you’re gonna love it!

Sassy Andee

This little sweetie was in for her third session of her Baby’s First Year Program, and big brother and big sister were so cute to tag along. Andee has such a happy little personality that she didn’t even mind getting a bath for the second time that day. Precious girl!

It’s That Time of Year Again!


The bunnies are coming back to Memories, and they’ll be here from March 6th – April 10th! I can hardly believe that this will be my 10th year photographing with bunnies… what a trip! And I am happy to say that this many years later, Easter is a very busy season for me. There’s just nothing sweeter than seeing the wonder and excitement in these kiddos as they hold and play with the bunnies. We’re discounting our session fees by $35 so times will book quickly, especially if you need a Saturday session, so be sure to call us at 357-5800 and schedule yours soon!

Blue Eyed Boy

Mason is such a happy little guy, he always does great for his sessions! I just loved his clothes that mommy picked out for this one… really makes those blue eyes pop!

Meet Rebecca

I just love this family… I have been photographing Rebecca’s three older sisters for several years now, and they are always a true joy. So, when Mommy called with the news about their newest addition, Rebecca, I was thrilled! This sweet girl was so easy, she made this session a breeze. Baby number four is definitely a keeper!

Elah Turns One!

I can hardly believe that this tiny princess has just celebrated her first birthday! We did her Small Details Session when she was no more than a week old, and now Elah has just finished her Baby’s First Year Program. This girly girl is just as sweet as can be and it has been a pleasure to celebrate her milestones alongside her wonderful family. Happy Birthday, Princess!
