east nashville photographer | buzzing broadway street

a month or so ago, i ventured downtown with two other photographer friends to practice street photography on Broadway. as you can see, it was buzzing with people of all kinds–old, young, fans, cheerleaders, musicians, panhandlers, tourists, magicians, lovers, dreamers, poodle-holders, etc. i loved it. can’t wait to do it again.

Alana these are fabulous! You get a real sense of that day. I am loving the tone of your black and whites soooo much! Very 1950′s Vivian Maier! Just beautiful. Number 26 is my fav!!!! Such a sweeping photo. Your eyes go to the street performer first, then the crowd but you are swept back to him. Just love it! And….Elvis! Uh..huh…love it!

east nashville photographer | my baby, taking care of his baby

i think 12 to 18 months is my favorite age range so far. there is a lot of expression, mimicking, affection and not a lot of talking, jumping, or running…yet. our younger son has been playing with baby dolls for the past couple of weeks and it’s been fun to watch. most of the time he pats them on the back, puts on/takes off their clothes, feeds them in his highchair, and occasionally throws them across the room.:)

east nashville photographer | newborn Miles

the Wahlers welcomed baby boy #2 into their family a couple of weeks ago and i had the privilege of photographing them at the hospital. newborns change so quickly and as a mom, you are kind of out of it and don’t get a chance to soak it all in…so i want to capture all of the little details of this special time–what the room looked like, first hugs and kisses, grandparents visiting, wrinkled sheets, meeting big brother, and of course, the newborn baby! Miles is so loved already.

congratulations ya’ll!!

east nashville photographer | when your kid is sick

our younger son has had a fever on and off for the past two days, and he fell asleep on the living room floor. it was a rare treat to get to see him sleep…so what’s a photographer-mama to do? take photos of my sleeping baby at every angle! i love him so much.

ps. see that bag –^ in the top right corner? that’s a load of kids clothes (and some toys) from my favorite local thrift store. happy face.
