The Starnes Boys | Knoxville Photographer

Wow, mom and dad, great job on these boys! They were so polite, and willing to do whatever we asked… we could not have asked for more. Mom is also being rewarded for having extra patience with us this week, as we have been s-w-a-m-p-e-d… your gallery is up a day early. Enjoy!!

Beautiful Girls

Wow, what beautiful girls! I have been photographing little Bobbie since she was a baby. It’s hard to believe this is a mother / daughter session when they could pass for sisters. You go girls!

What to Wear Wednesday: Baby Boys

Heather — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 03:13:38 +0000

Well, I guess if I had a superhero name it would be something like Linktastic or Postalot or something like that. These baby posts have taken me forever! And I could have actually just done this as one single baby post because so many of the items in both posts are interchangeable between boys and girls, but I chose to split them because so many parents think that the accessories are reserved for girls only. Not at all true! So I feel the need to show the vast plethora (do I sound smart using that word? I feel pretty smart right now) of completely cute and completely boy accessories that are out there! And the right accessory could be all your baby needs for a stunning portrait. Because, remember, I like baby skin and I like to see alot of it.

I can’t believe I left the leg warmers out of last weeks post! I love them on boys and girls, big and small. Just imagine a 6 month old sitting in natural window light wearing nothing but a pair of striped leg warmers? Tell me you wouldn’t fall in love!
Or a newborn baby boy wearing that knitted bear ears hat and sleeping soundly in the window sill…
or a 9 month old wearing that striped gnome hat, a white onesie, and playing with one of those brightly colored pull toys.
And I think a couple of these onesies were made for a custom Birth Announcement — I could totally see a new mom and dad in solid white shirts and blue jeans holding their baby in that Made with Love onesie gracing the front of their custom card.
Can you tell I could go on all day…

So, the moral of the story is to focus on the details. Yes, we still photograph alot of the standards — and I don’t dislike them either. Swear. Grandparents especially, they love the pink and the blue outfits and we like it too, but make sure to add a little kick to each session too. Things that show your families personality and your babies cute quirks. After all, that’s the cuteness you want to remember 16 years down the road when you are looking for any signs of that former sweet baby, lol!

Grandma’s Girls

Don’t you just love this little vintage dress? It just so happens, it’s the same dress that Grandma wore when she was a little girl. Too cute! The girls have gotten so big since our last session. They are always so much fun to photograph. Adorable!

Tyler and Tate

Wow, what a great session! We couldn’t have asked for more perfect lighting at this location. I have been photographing this family since the boys were babies and I can’t believe how big they are both getting. They were such little troopers and I love their expressions! Awesome!!

Mom had mentioned that we should have a facebook fan page, and guess what… we’ve had it in the works for a bit, and it’s now up and running. Tag, your it!
