Central Mississippi Wedding and Portrait Photography

Scenario – Great mom looking to get a traditional shot of her VERY non-traditional “kids” for her husband for father’s day.

3 month old

2 year old

7 year old

Just by looking at it, it doesn’t seem THAT intimidating, I know.   In fact, it seems almost ideal.

Now, imagine if the only ones old enough to walk happened to walk on all fours????  And, to top it off, one of them makes up 90% of their combined weight!

Needless to say, we knew that we were about to have a first in our studio! 

We couldn’t have wished for a better turnout on the shoot.

Mom, Betsy, was great.  She came super-prepared and all smiles, as did her beautiful little girl Rivers, her 2 year old bloodhound, Rigby, and her 7 year old Yorkie, Hank.

Her little sis, Peyton, was there to keep things in check – pups in their kennels, pacifier for Rivers, an extra hand for us all.

It was a blast. 

And, we got the shot.

I don’t know a better way to honor man’s best friend than to commemorate him in a family photo.  I just love it.

Kudos to sweet Betsy for being such a thoughtful mom and wife!

Hats off to the Birmingham family for being SO much fun on their shoot!

They wanted funky and fun with a little splash of the every day.  Nothing formal – just casual all of the way.

We met them downtown for their shoot and they came with a surprise addition – everyone was wearing chuck taylor’s – LOVED it!  Too cute!

The light was coming up right behind us.  We stayed at this location just long enough to get this great shot of their Chuck’s along with the midday sun casting shadows of their legs and feet down on the ultra white cement.

On our way to another shot we slipped into this awesome little alley way.  I love the expressions on the kids!

After the alleyway we took the kids for a couple of shots next to Jackson’s infamous red booth. 

Loved the shots we got here~

For the end shots we found a large piece of cement wall that had just been washed with rain the night before, so it electrified all of the brown tones – yay!    We were originally at the location for a different purpose and the wall screamed out to us from about a hundred yards away from where we were shooting.

Thanks, Birminghams!
