Jackson & Tallahassee children’s portraits

So, its the day of the Carolina v. Georgia game and we are doing portraits in the heart of the USC campus.  Jackson comes for his one year portraits in full Gamecock gear and showing off his “touchdown” move.  Then, Carolina stomps Georgia in the game… coincidence?  I think maybe Jackson should go on the road as their good luck charm!

Riley and Dalton’s mommy is the closest thing I have to a sister– we were next door neighbors and best friends.  I can remember the hell we put our moms through, so seeing Jenn’s little ones drive her bonkers is just the best!  🙂  Riley and Dalton are both so full of life and had me in hysterics!  They are both so matter-of-fact and with their little Carolina accents, its beyond cute!

I have literally known Mandy as long as I can remember.  Being three years older than me, she was one of my brother’s few friends that was actually nice to me!  🙂  Mandy is also a photographer back home in South Carolina and is frequently my sounding board for new ideas, my reality check when I get crazy and my resource for all things Canon and printing.  I am so thrilled that she is now a mommy and even happier that she and Marty came down to Columbia so I could play with Baby Carter!

I really should pay more attention…

Most of y’all know that Olyn and I compete in photographic print competitions both locally and at the state level.  This year, I decided to be brave and submit a case of four prints to the national competition.  This case was shipped off back in the spring and I literally forgot about it.  We have had such a crazy busy summer here at the studio I didn’t think about it until today.  I has honestly assumed that since it was my first time entering I would not have any merits.  I was shocked this morning when I found the results online and learned one of my prints merited!  Woo!  🙂  So, here it is… my first NATIONAL merit image!
