We did an in-home 3 month session baby portraits with this sweet baby girl and her family over the winter and I just realized I never shared! Tell me those little hipster flannels aren’t the cutest on this family!
Look at that bow! so much cuteness!
\Doesn’t she look just like her daddy in this one below?
I have the pleasure of sharing the studio with this beautiful lady, and in turn, her sweet little miss as well! It has been so sweet to watch Mia grow, and see how much she absolutely delights in her mama! Here are a few of my favorites from our session in the studio recently!

So precious Susannah! I love it! Nice work =)
I packed up my backpack, grabbed the assignment sheet and shot out the door to head home for the weekend. My little tweenage heart thumped as I thought about what was next…high school? I couldn’t wait to be in the big leagues and the only thing standing between me and the sparkling new high school campus was a few exams and my 8th grade graduation.
I hopped in mom’s white minivan and grabbed a sip of her watered down diet coke. My thirst quenched, I held up the graduation page and announced to her that I needed a set of photographs for my 8th grade graduation board. I would need a family picture, a photograph with my best friend and one with my mom.
That evening we pulled out old boxes of photos and began to sort through them, setting aside our favorites and recounting their stories. We searched and sorted, but we could not find a photo of my mom and me. In fact there were very few photographs that even had her in them! After making a few phone calls my sweet mother was able to get ahold of a photo a neighbor had snapped of the two of us a few years before.
Since that event many many years ago, my mom has been an advocate for mothers everywhere to be in photographs! Too often, especially in today’s digital age, moms are the ones who run around snapping the photos and all to rarely are they in them.
With Mother’s Day just around the corner, and a summer full of birthdays, anniversaries and other celebrations I decided to host a few mini-session days just for moms and their little ones! Mini-sessions will be hosted at my Old Town studio. Saturday, May 11 we will be hosting a tea and cookies pop-up shop with UpCircle throughout our day of shoots. Get a little something fun from UpCircle that day and receive an extra $50 credit toward your order!

On the most perfectly sunny day in mid-March Katie and Tom said I do on the front steps of a New Orleans southern mansion. It was everything a wedding should be; charming, heartfelt and joyful.
Tom and Katie, it was a joy to celebrate your wedding weekend with you. Your love and commitment is evident; may your marriage be a lifelong adventure as you grow and live life together.
-Susannah and Josue
Katie and Tom chose to have a First Look and see each other before the ceremony. It allowed them a sweet time together on their wedding day to stop and take it all in. In their case it was extra special because they chose to do their first look in the same spot that Tom proposed to Katie in City Park.I love these two.Most fun father and daughter dance I have ever seen! These two tore it up!At the end of the night Tom and his groomsmen (and former bandmates) took the stage for a perfect Grande Finale!

Just two weeks ago Josue and I had the joy of traveling to New Orleans to photograph the wedding weekend of this beautiful bride, Katie and her beau, Tom. Katie and her entourage of helpers met us at City Park in New Orleans at the break of dawn for her bridal session. We enjoyed a beautiful morning photographing, chasing away ducks, and eating beignets. Here are a few favorites from her bridal session!
Absolute favorite. Frame it and put it on the wall.
The light in these is PERFECT. And I just can’t get enough of that spanish moss!!!
Ooh wow. These are so stunning!!
Oh these are stunning! Gorgeous bride, gorgeous shots!
