Thatcher Football Portraits {Tallahassee sports photos}

Our house is always a frenzy of football in the fall.  Olyn and I are both big college football fans, so SportsCenter and ESPNU are mainstays around our house.  This year, the football mania went into overdrive, as Thatcher played his first year of Pop Warner football.  His Green Eagle Tiny Mite team resembled the Bad News Bears a lot more than the Philadelphia Eagles, but he had so much fun playing!  After a very HOT, busy, crazy season, I FINALLY found time to do his football portraits!  I know I am the proud mom and photographer, but I just LOVE the images we captured of him!  So, here I am, bragging about my big boy– the cutest, most enthusiastic, wild, Green Eagle Tiny Mite!

Donald & Helen

I love photographing weddings.  Its where I started with photography and I think at heart I will always be a wedding photographer.  :)   It isn’t often that you get to work for a couple you really and truly love, so when my brother announced that he and Helen were getting married, I knew I would get to photograph a wedding FULL of people that I love.  I have to admit, it was really hard to narrow down the images– especially the ones of our friends and family at the reception, but I did my best to keep it manageable!

The Long Boys

I am finally starting to recover from our vacation at the beginning of the month!  When we leave town, it just means a lot of chaos before we leave and even more when we return!  :)   We had a fabulous time at Amelia Island and I did very very little work while we were there.  I did however, manage to photograph my two wild boys!  I still say that these two are some of the toughest subjects I ever photograph, but I think the struggle was worth it.  :)

Winning Images

Last night was the Tallahassee Professional Photographers Salon competition where local photographers have their work evaluated by a panel of professional photography judges. Olyn and I are thrilled that we had two wedding albums and three prints that received merits, our wedding album for Michelle and James received second place overall and my social function print, “All Along the Watchtower” received third place overall. It was an incredible competition with so many amazing pieces of art created by Tallahassee’s best photographers and we are so honored that our work scored so well.

Thatcher’s Preschool Graduation

Its my turn to brag! :)   I get to post about lots of other families, but this time we have something to celebrate!  Thatcher graduated last week from preschool at Little Lambs!  I am a total softie and it doesn’t take much to make me cry, so its no surprise that I was at the back of the room trying not to openly sob through his program.  I have to admit that I am in complete shock and denial that my baby will be starting Kindergarten in just a few months!  He was a super-star for the graduation and played the coveted roles of an elephant and the letter “P” in the program.

Tallahassee Moms Like Me

The April issue of Tallahassee “Moms Like Me” came out over the weekend in the Tallahassee Democrat and I just have to say how adorable the cover image is!  Not that I could possibly be biased… being the mother of the model and the wife of the photographer!  :)   The Tallahassee Democrat asked us to illustrate their feature story of teaching children responsibility with money and with short notice, we recruited our in house model.  We am so thrilled to be working with the Tallahassee Democrat for other issues this year, so if you have an upcoming session with us, we might be throwing in a few illustrative shots to possibly be chosen for a future cover!
