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!

Over the years, Brian and I have experienced almost all aspects of dual income earnings – whether it be both of us working full-time jobs and running the business, one working full-time while the other worked part-time at one job and part-time at the business, or in our most current format, working part-time at both a day job and the Studio while the other works full-time at the Studio.  Regardless of the scenario, it takes a lot of juice to work and raise a family, no matter what the dynamic!

The role of the working mom is often very vague.  It is a workout juggling motherhood and a career, but somehow we all make it!

With the birth of our last child, I stepped into the role of what I term the Stay-at-Work-Mom.  With the help of our assistant and some skillful shoot scheduling, I have been able to bring my little one, now four-and-a-half months old, to work with me – full time and it’s a blast!

So, if you are in for a shoot and you hear giggles from the back – that’s just our little guy laughing it up!

Ain’t Life Grand?!
