The Captured Life

Finally 40

So, just to take one look at this young lady you would think. Oh no..she is not nearly 40. Can't be! Yup, this beautiful young lady will be turning 40 very soon and to commemorate this grand event she had me snap some pictures of her. I felt like I was working with one of my high school seniors, not to mention that I had photographed her 19 year old daughter a few times before. I just knew the mama was gonna BRING IT! So with a little help from her baby girl this hot mama came out of her conservative shell and BROUGHT IT!

This is what turning 40 should be all about! Live your life like it's golden Theresa!

Baby's Home!

This session meant so much to me because mommy is a good friend of mine.  I have watched baby Asher come to life from conception up until I saw him yesterday in the crook of his daddy's lap snug as a bug. have had to endure listening to mommy's questions, BOOKS, concerns about motherhood and reassuring her that she is going to be a fabulous mom! I hate to say I TOLD YOU SO x 10 million!  They rock as parents I tell you.  That little boy was showered with love from the moment he was born with godmommy here from Florida to auntie coming down all the way from Jamaica!  I always tease them by saying "You're going to spoil that boy" but I tell you, if I had that little Bubba with me, he would just have to be one little spoiled boy and that's that!

Rach and Ains, thank you so much for allowing me to take part of Asher's life from conception to most likely the birth of his own children!  I tell you this will be one well documented kid if  have anything to do with it .  You all represent the fabulous life of 21st century parenting very well! Love you guys!

A "Sad" Prince and his Ebony Princess

The Wedding starts at 7pm and it's about 4pm and it's been raining buckets all day long.  "Please tell me that there are indoor accommodations", I asked because I was unable to attend rehearsal the night before coming from ATL.  "Yes, but it's not going to be the same, she wants an outdoor wedding, and it just won't be the same." says Tosh.  "I know but it looks like we might need a plan B".  Low and behold around 5:30pm the sky stopped crying!  Yes, Thank You Lord, prayer really works!  The castle was gorgeous with a spiral staircase and all.  A perfect setting for a fairy tale wedding complete with fairies, knights, a jester and a fairy godmother.  Simply beautiful.  Perfect for a Princess and A (temporarily) Sad Prince which was the name of the Production that was far from the typical wedding ceremony.  Ceremonies like this makes being wedding photographers worth while.  By the time it was all said and done a very "Happy" Prince and his Ebony Princess drove off into the night to begin their new life together and live happily ever after

Thank you so much Al & Talita for allowing us to be a part of this very special day.  We were both truly honored to capture this moment for you to enjoy for the rest of your lives.  We hope we did you proud!

1ST Birthday Fun with Baby "C"!

I had such a ball with this little one year old.  He was a little bundle of energy showing all his new 1 year old tricks.  Running, climbing stairs, peeking, hiding!  It was so much fun.  As soon as I hit the door he was all smiles and giggles.  We formed an instant connection.  Then we travelled down the street to the park where Superman started to loose some of his cryptonite.  Seems like I wore my little man out at the house but he stil gave me the cutest expressions to make you just wanna eat 'em up. Thanks mom and dad for allowing me some fun time with your little one.  You all were a true pleasure indeed. Not to mention the scrumptious cheescake at the end.  Yum Yum Yum.  What a way to end a session.

Photo shoot..or play date!

I had so much fun with this family.  Little "D" was my best friend from jump street.  The moment we met I felt we had a bond.  He was getting in his car and taking me to Target to buy me dresses and shoes!  Then there's sweet little "K"! She would not let go of mommy's leg..but that didn't last long.  Till she was chasing after her brother and climbing over everything she could. Mom was so laid back and just let us have fun in the park.  I tell you though little "D" gave me a run for my money!  That child has limitless energy.  I really enjoyed our photo session which turned into a play date for me.  I had so much fun with them!

Thanks mom for allowing them to be roam free and be themselves! P.S and it didn't hurt that they were the fliest kids on the playground either!
