Miss Addie arrived fashionably at 8:13 on 8/13… just how neat is that?! She was welcomed by such a beautiful and loving family, and I was so honored to be there. Her momma worked so hard and her daddy was so sweet, it was such a beautiful moment to witness the birth of Addie Morgan.

Happy Birthday, Bobbie! | Knoxville Photography
Bobbie came in to celebrate her 5th birthday, and we had SUCH a great time!! It’s crazy to think that she’s already five years old, I have been photographing her since she was just 3 months old.

One Amazing Night | Knoxville Birth Photographer
We have been looking forward to Candace’s birth for quite sometime now. She contacted us just after we posted the birth of Heather’s sister, and I was so thrilled to photograph her birth at Lisa Ross Birth Center. Candace showed incredible strength and courage during her labor and delivery of Kayla MacKenzie, and it was so amazing to witness her coming into this world. Her water birth was nothing short of amazing, and I have to admit that the moment took me off guard and had me sobbing for a minute! Her husband, Eric, was such a good support partner… truly a beautiful night!!

The Good Guys | Knoxville Photographer
Sometimes I’m so clever, I crack myself up! The Guy gang recently was back in town (all the way from New Jersey!) for portraits of their newest precious girl, Emma Kate. Big brother and big sister have grown so much since their last visit in the studio, I hardly recognized them. They were so sweet with their little sister, I really enjoyed seeing these guys!





Sweet, Sweet Baby | Knoxville Newborn Photographer
Sweet Rory Kathleen came into the studio this week for her Squish session, and we simply loved her. She was so agreeable and such a great little sleeper, this pretty girl was putty in our hands, lol! She also has the kindest family, and we are so glad they found us just a few short months ago!
Her mommy paid us the best compliment too. After the session was wrapped up, she asked us how long we’ve been working together… and when we answered nearly 2 years, she was surprised and said just how well we communicate with one another… knowing what needs to be done without saying it. Most people don’t realize that Nancy, Michelle and I all work together during an entire Squish session. Nancy and Michelle work their camera magic, while I pose the babies. It works for us, we’ve been shooting newborns like this for what feels like forever now and I can’t imagine it any other way. If I haven’t said it lately… I love my job, it just doesn’t get better than this. Thanks to everyone who make this kind of work possible… and thanks to our wonderful and loyal clients — you and your sweet kiddos are what keep us going… literally!



And this one is my personal fave! Thanks so much guys for bringing in these sunflowers for your session. We loved them, and judging by the look on Miss Rory’s face… she does too!


- Adorable!!! You girls are so busy making memories for people! I love it. And Heather, I love that the ivy is so plentiful and there are no holes! Great job!!!July 31, 2010 - 11:39 am
- What a precious lil angel!July 31, 2010 - 11:41 am
- ROFL!! The secret that Kandice knows, is that I worked for-ev-er on editing the ivy in this image... only for Nancy to say that she thought it needed more. So, more ivy she got. It does look mighty lush, wouldn't you say? :PJuly 31, 2010 - 12:05 pm
- Heather, would love some info on how you posed the baby on image one..?? I tried this pose in a recent newborn session, but wasn't successful. Thanks, Tina P.August 13, 2010 - 12:45 pm
The Birth of Anna Kate | Knoxville Birth Photographer
Alright guys, here it is, my first experience photographing a birth… and I owe a huge thanks to Liz and Seth for letting me in on their amazing day! Liz is so beautiful and the entire family was so, so gracious, I could not have asked for more. All of this to say, as much as I’m talking about myself here, that is not what this day was about… this day was truly about just being there with my camera and this family during their most special day… documenting the first journey of sweet Anna Kate. It was a true miracle to witness this precious girl enter the world… amazing family, amazing girl! You guys are the best
And, thanks so much to everyone for the amazing response we have gotten for our birth photography services! We are excited to have more upcoming births within the next little bit… Hannah & Candace — you’re next girls!
oh, and the artists to these amazing songs are Innocence Mission “Wonderful World” and Matthew West “Safe and Sound”.

- Oh my goodness!!!! This is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. I am a good friend of Liz's and I love to "feel" like I was there by watching this. What a treasure forever Anna Kate will have. I never knew this was an option but I want one when I have another baby! You did such a beautiful job- you would never have known it was your first time. I am a labor doula so I was crying watching this realizing how much I miss working. You and I would make a great team!!! :)July 25, 2010 - 9:54 am
- Hi Michelle, not sure if you remember me, but you helped me w/the wedding in Lake City last year! You did an amazing job here! I really felt like I was there through the entire process and it stirred up alot of emotions having 2 children myself! I have photographed one birth for some very dear friends and I know what a long day it can become, but it's worth enduring in return for capturing those quick few precious moments at birth! You did an outstanding job, keep up the good work! Love the video and the images! :)July 27, 2010 - 12:16 am
- Michelle- We cannot say enough good things about you and the amazing job you did photographing our babies birth! What a blessing to have Anna Kate's birth documented! It was so great not worrying about taking pictures and just living in the moment with you there to photograph her journey into the world. At first I have to admit I was wondering what have I done but as soon as I met you I love you and your style! You made me feel so comfortable along with my whole family! I HIGHLY recommend this to any one who is bringing a new life into the world. We will cherish this gift forever and look forward to sharing it with Anna Kate when she gets older!! Thanks for all your hard work! Heather you are so great and really appreciate you being so easy to work with!! We look forward to using you in the future!!! Liz :) XOAugust 26, 2010 - 4:06 pm
