B Family Tea Party

Over the last few months I’ve been expected to keep lots of big secrets but this one might have been one of the hardest!!! It took about 15 weeks for Mama M & Papa D to spill the beans that they were expecting again but dang was the payoff worth it!!!!! Mama M & I struggled for a little while trying to pick the perfect theme for their gender reveal and after going weeks of thinking Baby #2 was going to be a boy Mama and having that planned in our minds, she finally got the great news that it was another girl and we just had to bust out the pink frill!

With her first pregnancy she took away the joy of me being able to share in all the splendor (just kidding guys) so throughout this pregnancy we’ve made the plans to go all out!

T, N, & R Announcement!

I’ve been having to keep lots of secrets for lots of people recently but I can FINALLY share the big news that the H family is growing by 1! Mama T is pregnant with Baby number 2 and told me when she was around 8 or so weeks I didn’t think I’d be able to keep it to myself… thankfully she also shared the big secret with some mutual friends so we could gossip about how excited we were about it!

It’s been forever since I’ve been able to do a gender reveal and somehow Mama T always manages to make things 10 times more glamourous. Between their incredibly coordinated outfits for Family photos and the amazing props she brought along with her I just basically had to show up and they did the rest of the work, I always feel very guilty working with them!

Capturing R’s first year was so amazing, I still have some of his Newborn Cake Smash photos in my portfolio today, I’m so honored they’ve stuck with me over the years and hope Baby number 2 likes me as much as R does!!! (Sometimes) I also hope they know that I’m going to be bullying my way into every part of her pregnancy now… maybe even the delivery room for Birth Photos… get ready T

G Family Gender Reveal

I always feel super special when someone does a gender reveal with me because normally I am Just one of three people who knows what they're having and I LOVE THE POWERRRR. But seriously, gender reveals are the best, especially when the mother is super creative and plans out the most awesome session you could ask for! It was so wonderful getting to meet the beautiful Mama B after talking for so long! It was like seeing someone I had known forever and though her husband couldn't make it to the session he was there in spirit! Mr. G was such a good sport and was all about sharing  all of his sweets with me and everyone there! He's going to be an awesome big brother to his little sister! 

J Gender Reveal

This pretty Mama just COULDN'T keep the fact that she was pregnant a secret, she did however manage to keep it private just what she was having and I was lucky enough to be the lady to help her share that info!!! After two handsome boys this Lady is FINALLY getting a girl!!!! We couldn't settle on how we'd exactly be revealing that info so we ended up doing about 3 different things, even though we had more planned! 

Breanna & Drew Gender Reveal

With Fall coming up I'm prepping the studio for all the babies that are about to be born (because we all know what everyone is doing in the winter!) &  have probably bought about 50 pounds of icing for all the cakes I'm going to be making. But, to my pleasure, I've had lots of families that have only begun the start of their pregnancy working with me! I can't even begin to recall just how many gender reveals I've done over the last two months!

Breanna contacted me weeks before she knew the sex of her baby & booked a session the day after she was to find out. I was one of the first few people that knew & I was so thrilled to finally put our weeks of planning into play. We knew this was going to be an incredibly messy session so we traveled down to skip the studio & travel to one of the many beautiful parks in Nashville & let the chaos to commence there. I'll give you one guess on what they're having...

Looks like we'll be (hopefully) having another beautiful baby girl sometime in the near future! Papa Drew already had a handsome little guy so both mommy & daddy got the sex that they were hoping for! Still we found no better way to showcase the reveal than to conduct the messiest but most colorful gender reveal I've ever done!

We had a very special guest for our session as well. Drew was able to bring his adorable son, the soon to be Big Brother E, who was overly excited to participated in the paint throwing! He has one stipulation & that was to not get paint in his eye. Guess what Papa Drew did? After rinsing his eye out for a good minute Big Brother E was determined to get his father back, so he the rest of the session trying to gather as much paint as possible to throw on his father. I had to supply water several times to dilute the paint so he's have more!

This adorable growing little family is now anxiously awaiting the birth of their little lady & will be making another debut on the blog in just a few short months!

April & Rhyan Gender Reveal

IT’S A GIRL!!!

Baby Season seems to be among us! Over the last two months I’ve gotten to do so many gender reveals & the majority of them have been pink related! (which makes me so excited because I have so many frilly pretty things in my studio!)Hopefully some of you are having little boys though!
The Mama & Papa to be have known for a long time that they were expecting but decided to keep it a secret until we could do our session, where they could do an announcement & a reveal all at the same time! However they couldn’t wait & let slip that they were expecting… I was still given the privilege to do the big reveal & have been dying to share these images for weeks!

I’ve known April for some time & I was over the moon to find out she was expecting! Especially with such a handsome youngLad! 

April & Rhyan spent so much time poking fun at one another I hardly had to direct or tell my bad jokes. They actually gave me some great material that I’ve added to my artillery!!! Rhyan was accustom to being in front of the camera & was the biggest helper during the session. He kept April laughing & playfully picking at him throughout the evening. You can always spot a happy couple simply based off their mannerisms & how they interact with one another & even though these two bickered at each throughout the session they always ended a conversation with a smile.

Rhyan & April wanted to do something a little out of the norm for their big reveal, which I’m always up for coming up with spankin new ideas, especially for such an awesome couple! We debated for the longest time on just what to do for their session over bad waffles ‘late’ one night & after throwing dozens of ideas there way & April scavenging the depths of Pinterest we finally settled on like four different ideas (because we were too indecisive to settle on just one or two)!
We ended up going with two of my ideas, which were the cooler ideas of course. Of the two smoke bombs I ordered only one worked & of the two packs of bubblegum April bought both were pink. You get the general idea though, it’s a girl!

In between lots of attempts at blowing a bubble at the same time & debates on how to properly pop a bubble it finally came down to plucking.

Despite the short amount of time spent with this couple I love their personalities & it’s made me overly excited for future sessions! Baby V has already brought her mama & papa so much closer together & I can’t wait to plan more unique sessions with this couple & to get the opportunity to watch this family grow!
