Family photography crooked river state park Kingsland Ga

This is one of my most recent photo shoots from Crooked River State Park in Kingsland.
I had never photographed there before, but was really excited with how this shoot went. This was a very beautiful young couple. With a new baby... I had a wonderful time getting to know them and their family.
As always I am very excited to hopefully get to watch this little guy grow up.

I want to inform everyone of family portraits summers are a great time to do family portraiture.. Your family is in town and their is no better time then the present.
There are plenty of excuses not to.... Such as " I want to lose weight" (That is mine) lol! However, your children do not care what you look like. They love "you"! Portraiture is extremely important! It documents who you are and is a family heirloom for your children to pass down to their children. I know my kids all the time ask me, "where do we come from"? Guess what? I don't know, we don't have a lot of family portraits from the past.
I cannot express the importance....
Luckily you are in the right place... If this is something you are needing we can hep you with that! Give us a call and we can set up a FREE consult! YES FREEEEE!
hope to talk to you soon!

a breath....of summer

I took my children to the zoo today.. It was one of the best days I have had in a very long time. We had no agenda, no place to be and no plans. We could look at the gorrillas for as long as we want..
What I found my self being drawn to was not the animals. It was the colors and the sky, the fish in the water. We stuck the tips of our fingers in the water and let the fish nibble our fingers. I noticed the reflections in the water. We walked out on to the river and I noticed for the first time in a long time the rain coming in. I did not want to run for cover I wanted to soak it in, watch the contrast in the sky from light to dark, found myself mesmerized by it's beauty.
We went to the asian gardens and as we were leaving there were these bright red flowers. The flowers were in front of these huge green trees that had moss swaying form it's branches, and just beyond that was the sky with the storm coming in. At that moment I was so thankful for color! The color was so rich I wanted to stand there and soak it in.
I took my children over to the playground and passed by a magnolia tree, the smell was so wonderful. I looked and noticed the sun passing through it's petals. The only camera I had was my blackberry so I snapped a shot to share.

What I want to share with you is the value of time... We can spend our whole lives working to gain the illustrious things of life, and totally miss out on the natural beauty that surrounds us everyday.
This summer take the time to enjoy the smells, sounds and sites that the earth has to offer. Take the time to feel the sand between your toes, to feel the wind blowing your hair, to notice the flowers color and smell.
I wish you all a very happy and safe summer, may you have many blessings

Just some random words

Time..... to sum up time is to sprinkle sand in the wind. Each grain representing a moment... and just like that the wind of time whisks the grains of life away in a whirlwind.

Ya know when I was 13 I remember walking down the street by myself and thinking, OH MY GOSH! I have 3 more years before I can drive. Then all of sudden whoosh! 17 years have flown by...... 17 years! Even saying that is mind boggleing to me. 

Its like moments were nothing! I look back I can remember the major things Highs school graduation, the birth of my children, getting married... But what about the fragments of time? The ones where relationships were built? The moments of my high school years... I do not remember hardly any of that! At the time it did not matter.. At the time I thought oh my gosh I just cannot wait to get outta here. Why in the world would I want to remember this? 

Simple......

You try your whole youth trying to get older, then you spend the rest of your life trying to maintain your youth... It is sooo true! What a vicious cycle life is. 

Okay what is the point?

To sum it up, Live your life, enjoy every moment, the tears from your last break up will evaporate and you will not remember them in 17 years.. Laugh, laugh as loud as you can.. One day soon we all grow up and get bogged down by responsiblity...   

I wish all of Camden County Seniors Good Luck!
